Worse.
Apparently she was living with him, and wanted to keep the baby.
He and his parents told her if she kept it or told anyone she was pregnant, that he'd break up with her and kick her out of the house.
Like, this is the exact opposite of what conservatives wanted with their anti abortion law, and likely why they're not using it.

I hope the Democrats pounce on this, because this is the sort of shit that was considered over emotional hand wringing when people suggested it could happen. But then again, they said the same thing about the 10yo who needed the out of state abortion, o who knows what good it will do....
I've heard conservatives claim that many liberals actually want forced abortions, because it's really about eugenics and population control.
Fuck im tired and thought you we're claiming liberals we're wanting eugenics and population control. Was about to call ya a gormless cocksucking bastard.
Grey area. Not a large age gap and they were together while both being minors.
That mom and son come across as really gross. I hope that girl gets real help.
She had been in a consensual sexual relationship with Kadyn Swainston since she was 15 and he was 17, and the relationship continued after he turned 18, the girl told police.
So?
There's a lot more to unpack here that isn't in the headline. The whole situation is fucked up.
If you have not been to Idaho, just know this insane shit is common. It's the Alabama of the west.
America failing it's people is the standard
I don't know what the right charges are in this situation. Maybe kidnapping is the best they could do, but it certainly sounds like some sort of charges were justified. They coerced her into getting an abortion against her will by threatening to abandon her and kick her out of the house she was living in if she continued the pregnancy.
Holyshit, what a clusterfuck. This actually sounds about right, here.
