(in case anyone doubts this story).
Sadly, I don't find it surprising. I think inmates in the U.S are generally treated like trash even when they are pregnant. Her baby may have been saved had they not taken several hours to get this woman to the hospital. Prison staff are always obligated to ensure that inmates receive medical care, but that obligation is far greater when an innocent human life is concerned.
Those responsible for this are despicable in my view.
