NORWAY (NEW YORK POST) – A Norwegian man who slipped abortion pills into his former girlfriend’s smoothie and caused her to have a miscarriage claims it was “the only way out.”
The 26-year-old pleaded guilty on March 9 to inflicting serious bodily harm and also to terminating a pregnancy without the mother’s consent. The prosecution desires a seven-year sentence.
The 20-year-old woman lost her baby in the 12th week of pregnancy, following the man’s second try to sneak her abortion pills. The first time he tried passing off the pills that he bought online as painkillers.
“He tried several times to convince me to have an abortion but it was not an option for me,” the woman told a court in Trondheim, reports the Norwegian public broadcaster NRK.
