So basically like punishing someone for possession of an illegal firearm rather than for the murder of the person they shot with it...

If the death itself is (arguably) lawful, yes... with the added bonus of not having to debate whether it's unlawful or not.
In the case of these charges, they're not saying abortion itself is unlawful, possibly because there is a question over exactly what caused the death/miscarriage. Just that she got the pills through unlawful means, which is an offence.
There's another such case just the other day:
Woman, 22, charged with procuring poison to abort her child
Bethany Cox appears at Teesside magistrates court charged with procuring her own miscarriage shortly after first Covid lockdown

The villagers should mind their own business as it nothing to do with them.

Would you apply the same to those opinionating in this thread, or is it just the "Village People"?
Is it too late to abort her?

He's from Stoke"Wicker Man" style tribalism still rules 3 miles down the road from you?
So wicker man is probably the sanest of things they get up to there

In an interview with the Village People, one of them said, young man.................

It's fine to have an opinion, it's when you act on it e.g. "Wickerman Style", as you mention, that it becomes a problem.
If we all did that, you'd just have vigilante justice.

How dare you. It's a woman's right to murder her children. I believe it was an Australian who first said "I trained it, I'm going to eat it". True, that was a snake, but it's the principle. Women should be allowed to do whatever they want. (I knew it was a dumb idea to give them the vote....give 'em an inch....).

This woman fled a domestically abusive relationship, was failed by society, forced back to her abuser and felt she had to abort to survive iirc.
But even without that, it’s her body and her choice.
Can you give me an example of where one human is allowed to leach life from another?
We don’t have enforced organ transplantations, even after someone had died.
If someone held you at gun point and said they would be stealing the use of most of your body, and utterly ruining it in the process, you would have every right to defend yourself, even if it meant killing the other person.
Not to downplay her actions but what's 'modern' got to do with anything?
This has been happening for as long as there's been a mating ritual.
I imagine the chaotic lifestyle of someone in a domestically abusive relationship isn’t one filled with brilliant decision making. Why do you ask?
He’s one of the many incel women haters on this forum.
There's a large number here that belive abortion in the 3rd trimester should be legal yes
Abortions are allowed up until the date of birth.
What’s your point?
Are you aware that none of those things are infallible? That someone might make a mistake? That Rape occurs?

I don't think there is anything you said there that I agree with.
Why is it societies fault when a person remains in a situation that is clearly bad for them? No one, no one is ever forced back in to an abusive relationship.
I don't agree with the "it's her body" thing. It isn't, it's a new life. It may be inside her, and it may affect her, but that does not give her the automatic right to destroy it.
Last I heard, babies don't have guns. But adults do have contraception. They do have legs (to walk away from relationships). They can say no (and if that is ignored, there are the police).

It isn’t the first and only option, it is an option though.
The fact other options exist before it that might possibly prevent it needing to be one doesn’t mean it isn’t an option, so your posts are utterly redundant.
The baby doesn’t have a gun no, it’s a hypothetical analogy about force, not a real one. The fact you need that explaining to you says a lot.
What do you mean you don’t agree that it’s her body? Would you like to expand on that? Is it not her body? Who’s is it?
Let’s focus on the issue of abortion rather than add in the extra fun element of your fascinating insights on being able to simply call the police in a domestic abusive relationship.
