| #5 The bigger question here is: why are prison inmates being allowed to get laid? |

| #4 Give her the abortion. It's cheaper than jailing the kid. |

| #3 I'd just as soon the criminal justice system not be burdened by having to deal with her offspring. I suggest she be offered a two-fer. Abortion and sterilization. I'd let the taxpayers spring for that. Cheaper in the long run. |

| #2 Good questions in the comments. I've got a better one: Is she pregnant because a male guard raped her in prison? IF NOT (& I'm betting not, or the lawyer would have said so), how is this the taxpayers' fault? She wants to exercise her (judge-bestowed) "choice." Strikes me she already did that. She chose to break the law, and she chose to have unprotected sex, either between her arrest and trial/sentencing, or in prison. I'd like several do-overs in my life, too. Ain't gonna happen. (By the way, I don't care if someone gets an abortion or not. I just don't think the state's taxpayers should have to pay for her stupidity and lack of self-control.) |

| #1 Interesting that she can pay for everthing else except a $350 charge. I bet she suddenly materializes that $350 on about week 21 if nobody coughs up the dough. |
