This is such a misleading headline. The girl was 28 weeks pregnant. No state had legal abortion at 28 weeks unless there was at threat to the mother’s life. They buried the fetus in their yard. This investigation began before roe vs Wade was invalidated.
But yeah, the headline as written plays really well with audiences with a certain narrative.
Fuck Facebook. Don’t use it. Delete your account.
Edit: I misremembered. She was 23 weeks not 28. My bad. Better take: https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2022/08/teens-jailing-shows-exactly-how-facebook-will-help-anti-abortion-states/

This is a typical LeopardsAteMyFace moment. Democrats spent years to kill online privacy and to get tech giants to act like online cops.
This abortion issue might finally convince the Democratic party about the value of privacy.

that would be hard, democrats don’t have any values besides the dollar
