Utah Man Who Attacked Pregnant Girl With Her Consent Gets 20 Years in Prison

Regarding the following:

Just to show fallacy of the Roe vs Wade decision that legalized the killing of unborn children. Here's a case where the girl pays someone to kill her unborn child and it failed but the perp was still sent to prison and the girl was given a slap on her wrist. Had she paid an abortionist to kill her child, that would have been legal and the girl would not have broken the law and neither would have the abortionist.

How could this be, a killing is a killing. Why should it make any difference who does the killing? A baby is dead either way. However, in this case the baby lived but the perp was still given jail time for attempted murder. An abortionist who actually kills the baby, for a fee, of course, gets to laugh all the way to the bank.

Some one is going to have to explain this to me, because I just don't get it. Gee, now, I'm wondering if a person who claims to be pro-choice (to kill unborm children) could explain this.

Man Who Attacked Pregnant Girl With Her Consent Gets 20 Years in Prison

Salt Lake City, UT (LifeNews.com) -- A Utah girl who paid a man to hit her in the stomach in an attempt to cause a miscarriage-abortion was declared by a judge to not be guilty of violating any state law.

But, the man who did the deed is headed to prison. The case involves 21-year-old Aaron Harrison whom the unnamed 17-year-old girl asked in May to help her cause an abortion to kill her seven-month-old unborn child.

The court documents show the girl's boyfriend had threatened to leave her if she did not get an abortion. Harrison, a friend of the girl, reportedly struck and bit her and she paid him $150 to do so.

The unborn baby survived the attack and doctors induced labor so the baby could be born. Harrison was sentenced Tuesday to serve up to 20 years in the Utah State Prison. "Your conduct was unconscionable. You just seem to be a rule unto yourself," said 8th District Judge A. Lynn Payne.

"I think your conduct shows remarkable disregard for human life; to meet somebody casually and agree to take a life for money." Harrison pleaded guilty to attempted murder, a second-degree felony, and faced a possible sentence of one to 15 years in prison. But Payne said the crime fit better with a new Utah abortion statute for attempted killing of an unborn child, a third-degree felony.

The judge sentenced him as if he'd pleaded to that crime and ordered him to serve zero to five years in prison for the beating. The new law, which went into effect in May, allows prosecutors to file such a criminal charge if proper procedures are not followed in a legal or illegal abortion. According to court records.

Arron Harrison also slapped and bit the pregnant teen before he was paid $150 by the girl. The pair admitted to their actions not long after the incident was reported. Prosecutor Mark Thomas argued that Arron Harrison should be sentenced on the attempted murder charge. He said the crime did not fit the lesser third-degree felony abortion statute because Arron Harrison is not a physician.
