Although I am not an attorney, I must wonder if after-birth (Or when labor had begun or is due) murder of an infant is a "Deprivation Of Civil Rights Under Color Of Law Resulting In Death". That would be a violation of Federal Law as provided below.
I must wonder if any US Attorney would, as a matter-of-duty, prosecute each-and-every complaint brought under that Law.
I must wonder if our new Attorney General has the courage to direct all US Attorneys to do so. I must wonder if such charges would include all doctors, nurses, clinic/hospital administrators and others of that ilk.
It might be well to force the US Courts (ie SCOTUS) OR The Congress (After the next General Election) OR The People (By amending our Constitution) to define (Considering all modern scientific evidence) when an unborn baby has the protection of the below law.
- Section 242 of Title 18 makes it a crime for a person acting under color of any law to willfully deprive a person of a right or privilege protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States.
For the purpose of Section 242, acts under "color of law" include acts not only done by federal, state, or local officials within the their lawful authority, but also acts done beyond the bounds of that official's lawful authority, if the acts are done while the official is purporting to or pretending to act in the performance of his/her official duties. Persons acting under color of law within the meaning of this statute include police officers, prisons guards and other law enforcement officials, as well as judges, care providers in public health facilities, and others who are acting as public officials. It is not necessary that the crime be motivated by animus toward the race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status or national origin of the victim.
The offense is punishable by a range of imprisonment up to a life term, or the death penalty, depending upon the circumstances of the crime, and the resulting injury, if any.
TITLE 18, U.S.C., SECTION 242
Whoever, under color of any law, statute, ordinance, regulation, or custom, willfully subjects any person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth, Possession, or District to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured or protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States, ... shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both; and if bodily injury results from the acts committed in violation of this section or if such acts include the use, attempted use, or threatened use of a dangerous weapon, explosives, or fire, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; and if death results from the acts committed in violation of this section or if such acts include kidnaping or an attempt to kidnap, aggravated sexual abuse, or an attempt to commit aggravated sexual abuse, or an attempt to kill, shall be fined under this title, or imprisoned for any term of years or for life, or both, or may be sentenced to death.
