前段時間，美國阿拉巴馬州因為通過了“最嚴格墮胎法案”被推到輿論的風口浪尖。

法律規定幾乎所有墮胎都是非法的。進行非法墮胎的醫生可能面臨長達99年的監禁。

In May, Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey signed the nation’s strictest abortion law, which would outlaw almost all abortions in the state without exceptions for victims of rape and incest. The law has not yet gone into effect.

今年5月，阿拉巴馬州州長Kay Ivey簽署了全美國最嚴格的墮胎法，該法將禁止該州幾乎所有的墮胎行為，包括強奸和亂倫受害者。法律尚未生效。

這一次，阿拉巴馬州又因為強調胎兒權利上了各大媒體頭條。

爭議源于一名不幸遭槍擊的孕婦。因為肚子上被人開了一槍，導致未出生的孩子死亡，這名孕婦被指控過失殺人罪。

事情要從2018年說起。

In December, Jones — then five months pregnant — got into an altercation with a 23-year-old woman outside of a store. The woman, Ebony Jemison, pulled out a gun and shot Jones in the stomach. Jones miscarried shortly after.

去年12月，當時懷孕5個月的Jones在一家商店外與一名23歲的女子發生了口角。那個叫Ebony Jemison的女子隨即拔出槍，射中了Jones的肚子。Jones不久就流產了。

按正常邏輯，開槍的Ebony Jemison應該被起訴。

但是阿拉巴馬州的大陪審團不這么認為。

A jury declined to indict her, saying that Jones initiated the altercation and that Jemison was acting in self-defense when she shot at Jones.

陪審團拒絕起訴Ebony Jemison，稱是Jones引發了爭吵，Jemison朝Jones開槍是在自衛。

就在本周三，Jones因過失殺人罪被杰斐遜縣大陪審團起訴，原因就是她不顧自己懷孕，挑起爭執，從而過失導致胎兒死亡。而開槍的女子則逍遙法外。

A grand jury indicted Jones in May on a charge of manslaughter over her unborn baby’s death, according to local prison records. Police accused her of starting the fight that led to her being shot by Jemison and for failing to protect her unborn child.

陪審團5月份指控Jones過失殺人導致未出生嬰兒的死亡。警方指控她主動挑起這場紛爭，導致被射擊，并且在這個過程中沒有保護自己的孩子。

The indictment against Jones, unsealed on Thursday, says Jones “intentionally caused the death of .... unborn baby Jones by initiating a fight knowing she was five months pregnant."

周四公布的起訴書上寫道，Jones“故意導致了腹中未出生的嬰兒的死亡，她知道自己懷孕5個月，還挑起紛爭?！?/p>

如果被判定有罪Jones 將面臨20年的牢獄生活。

Jones的起訴書引起了婦女權利團體和墮胎權利倡導者的憤怒和擔心：是不是以后孕婦一切可能危及嬰兒出生的行為都是刑事犯罪了？！

Losing a pregnancy is NOT a crime—but Marshae Jones has been indicted for manslaughter because she miscarried after being shot.

流產不是犯罪，然而Marshae Jones卻因為遭槍擊流產，被指控過失殺人。

“Marshae Jones is being charged with manslaughter for being pregnant and getting shot while engaging in an altercation with a person who had a gun,” Amanda Reyes of the Yellowhammer Fund, an abortion rights advocacy group, said in a statement. “Tomorrow, it will be another black woman, maybe for having a drink while pregnant. And after that, another, for not obtaining adequate prenatal care.”

墮胎權利倡導組織Yellowhammer基金會的Amanda Reyes在一份聲明中說：“Marshae Jones因懷孕和持槍者發生口角而被指控過失殺人?！薄懊魈?，可能是另一個黑人婦女，因為懷孕時喝酒被指控?；蛘呤菦]有做足夠的產前護理被指控。”

網友也覺得這次的事件有點過分，簡直是現實版《使女的故事》。

發生在Jones身上的事太可怕了。這不是一個孤立的事件。遭遇一場車禍，被玩具絆倒，從樓梯上摔下來，或者在家里什么都沒做就流產了。遭遇這些不幸的女人都要受到懲罰嗎。

這起案件（可能）會成為拘留意外流產婦女的先例。法官必須非常謹慎地判決。

那么，如果阿拉巴馬州的父母沒有照看好孩子，導致孩子不小心淹死在后院的游泳池里，他們會不會因為過失殺人而被起訴？或者只針對未出生的胎兒……？

講真，是時候把阿拉巴馬這個州踢出去了！?。?/p>
