Court: Man put abortion pills in lover's food
Swedish woman aborted pregnancy over tainted food fears

STOCKHOLM, Sweden - A Swedish court of appeal on Tuesday sentenced a 27-year-old man to 18 months in prison for trying to make his girlfriend miscarry by mixing abortion pills in her food.
The man, who was not named for legal reasons, had his jail term increased from a previous one-year sentence set by a district court in June.
In its ruling, the Court of Appeal for Western Sweden found the man guilty of aggravated assault for attempting to make his girlfriend of eight years miscarry by giving her a yogurt containing three ground-up pills. The sentence also included a more minor count of assault.
The court documents said the woman had decided to have the baby even though he felt he was not ready to be a father. The man ordered some pills on the Internet and fooled his doctor into prescribing others for another condition.
The woman ate the yogurt and suffered severe stomach pains and vaginal bleeding.
When she later realized what she had eaten, she decided to have an abortion, fearing that the fetus had been damaged by the pills.
The defendant's lawyer, Lars Boberg, said his client would most likely appeal the ruling.

I was in Johnstown today. Home of the Johnstown flood, and the Johnstown War Memorial. Yeah, the Johnstown (actually Cambria County) War Memorial---that is the place where the movie Slapshot was filmed. I watched my nephew play hockey on the same rink as the Hansen Brothers. It was a touching moment.
Johstown girls are more yinzer than Pittsburgh girls. I hate to say it but its true.
