A local prosecutor Tony Clayton said to the AP communication that his mother left the police on Friday.

The case was at least ROEV by the US Supreme Court in 2022. It seems to be the first case of a criminal accusation to a doctor who was accused of sending abortions to another state because the nation had opened the wade and opened the door to have a strict anti -disconnection.

“I hope Dr. Carpenter will come to Louisiana and answer these accusations, and if 12 (JU) think she is innocent, I will let go,” Clayton said.

Governor of New York, Kathy Hochulu, said in a video posted on social media, saying, “In any situation, it will never be handed over to Louisiana in any situation.” He signaled a legal battle.

Last year, Port Allen, Louisiana, demanded abortions online from Carpenter for her daughter.

Clayton said that the demand was conducted only through the questionnaire and there was no consultation with the girl.

Clayton said that the “cocktail of tablets” was mailed to a woman who instructed her to take her pills.

After taking the medicine, the girl experienced a medical emergency alone, was called 911, was taken to a hospital, and was treated there.

While responding to the emergency, police officers learned about tablets, and under a further investigation, a doctor in New York provided drugs and delivered the survey to the Clayton office.

It is unknown how long the girl was during her pregnancy.

“The mother (adult) was arrested, but the other we believe here is a person who sits in the office, wraps a tablet box, puts a stamp in a box and mailed. Children take it. Luizziana for the time, “said Clayton.

The carpenter was sued in December under the same claim of sending tablets to the state by Texas.

The case did not include criminal accusations.

The carpenter did not return a message from the AP immediately.

The prosecution will occur only a few months after the first state of Louisiana re -classification of both the mypepryston and the misprostol as “controlled dangerous substances.”

The drug is still allowed, but medical workers need to take additional measures to access them.

Under the law, if someone intentionally owns one of the drugs without a valid prescription, they may be fined up to $ 5,000 and may be sent to prison for one to five years.

This law opens up protection to collect pregnant women who take medicine without a prescription.

“I have said before, but I will say again. We are responsible for breaking the law,” said Louisiana, a member of the Commonwise Party, on Friday.

Opponents and reproductive groups have flooded social media that scrutinize accusations.

“We cannot continue to permit the ability to access medical care that forced childbirth militants cannot continue to hinder. CHASITY WILSON, an executive director of Louisiana's Approximately Fund, states in a statement.

“The militants hope that this incident will have a cool effect and will further connect the hands of a doctor who has taken care of the patient.”

ROEV. Since Wade collapsed, Louisiana had no exception to rape and incest. Under the law, doctors who have been convicted of illegal abortion, including tablets, include a maximum of $ 200,000 in prison, $ 200,000, and a medical license.

“Since the ROE V Wade was overturned, I definitely witnessed a pattern that would interfere with women's rights.” Masu.

“It is not a secret that the United States has the history of violence and harassment against abortion providers. The states, which are prosecuted for doctors who provide safe and effective care, need to be wary of all people. there is.”

The prosecution on Friday may be the first direct test of the New York Shield Law. The purpose is to protect prescriptions who use telehels to provide pharmaceuticals during pregnancy to state patients who are prohibited from abortion. “It does not allow bad actors to impair the abilities of the provider to provide rescue emergency,” said New York Secretary Letia James.

“This CO disease is unreasonable and non -American to try to weapon a law to providers outside Louisiana,” said James.

Unlocking is the most common means of abortions in the United States, accounting for nearly two -thirds of them by 2023.

They are also at the center of political and legal measures over abortion.

In January, the judge continued to challenge the approval of the federal government and continued to approve how to prescribe one of the normally related drugs.
