If we can really start suing whores for killing our babies, then the bloodbath will really begin.
A Texas man has filed a potentially precedent-setting lawsuit against three women he claims committed “murder” by helping his ex-wife get an abortion.
Marcus Silva sued the trio — Jackie Noyola, Amy Carpenter and Aracely Garcia — for $1 million each in Galveston on Thursday, after he said they helped his ex, Brittni Silva, obtain abortion pills last July.
…
“Marcus Silva recently learned of the defendants’ involvement in the murder of his child, and he brings suit against them for wrongful death and conspiracy,” the lawsuit says.
Silva, who was divorced in February, claims his ex hid her pregnancy from him and secretly aborted the child in July 2022 with the help of her friends.
He included text messages between his ex-wife and her three pals in the court filing that show them discussing the “murky” legality of having abortion pills shipped to Texas.
The screenshots of the text exchanges also show Brittni Silva was concerned Marcus would leverage the pregnancy to trap her in a relationship with him.
“I know either way he will use it against me,” the pregnant woman said, according to the text messages attached to the filing. “If I told him before, which I’m not, he would use it as a way to try to stay with me. And after the fact, I know he will try to act like he has some right to the decision.”
The court filing also includes s a photo of Noyola, Carpenter, and Brittni Silva “celebrating the murder” on Halloween 2022 by dressing up as characters from Handmaid’s Tale, a dystopian book and television series set in a near-future totalitarian state where birth control and abortions are illegal.
Silva claims the photo was posted on the Facebook page of the bookkeeping company his ex-wife, Noyola, and Carpenter work at, although the photo is not currently available at the link included in the lawsuit.
Joanna Grossman, a law professor at SMU Dedman School of Law in Dallas, told The Texas Tribune she considered the lawsuit to be “absurd and inflammatory.”
…
However, others said the lawsuit could be successful under the law in Texas, where providing abortion-inducing medication is a felony.
It is a felony.
And felonies are against the law.
