Endangering Pregnancies

The rough outline of the article: a certain county in Alabama has a high rate of jailing pregnant women who were charged with the crime of "endangering their pregnancies" (e.g., exposing their fetuses to chemicals like marijuana or other substances), but then after the pregnant women are put in jail, the "healthcare" provided to these pregnant women were so appallingly lacking that the pregnancies were truly endangered, with many examples of women suffering loss of pregnancies or giving birth in the county jail under harrowing conditions.

After opening the thread I know u meant endangering in the title but I spent a few moments trying to understand how you engender pregnancies.

Please re-edit the title back to the original.
Thank you.
