South Texas DA who charged woman with murder for abortion allegedly paid for mistress to have the procedure
A South Texas District Attorney who wrongly charged a woman with murder after her self-induced miscarriage paid for his mistress to have an abortion in the '90s, the Houston Chronicle reports, citing accusations in federal court records. Three years ago, Starr County District Attorney Gocha Ramirez made national headlines by charging 26-year-old Lizelle Gonzalez with murder after she took the abortion medication Mifepristone to terminate her pregnancy. Ramirez filed the case despite state law forbidding prosecutors from pursuing homicide charges against women for ending their own pregnancies.
