>That part of the sentence is truly bizarre IMO. If an unborn baby, a fetus, can be murdered, of course abortion is equal to murder. But since that is not the case according to current US laws, giving him the needle for double murder when in fact one was "nothing more" than terminating a pregnancy, is truly bizarre. Pick one, trying to have it both ways is utter nonsense.

That's the point... it's a foot in the door to overturn Roe v. Wade...

Two, there's a political issue here -- Lacey Peterson was eight months pregnant, and the unborn baby died as well, and as such, it was a double homicide case. If that baby was murdered, then is abortion not murder?
