Texas DA to drop murder charges against woman after self-induced abortion

RIO GRANDE CITY, Texas - A murder charge against a 26-year-old Texas woman will be dropped, says 229th Judicial District Attorney Gocha Allen Ramirez, who serves Starr, Jim Hogg and Duval counties.In a release, Ramirez says he reached out to Lizelle Herrera's counsel to say that his office would be filing a motion to dismiss the indictment against her on Monday, April 11. According to Ramirez, a review of applicable Texas law showed that Herrera "cannot and should not be prosecuted for the allegation against her." However, Ramirez says that the Starr County Sheriff's Department "did their duty in investigating the incident brought to their attention by the reporting hospital".Herrera was charged with murder after authorities said she caused "the death of an individual by self-induced abortion," in a state that has the most restrictive abortion laws in the U.S. It is still unclear whether Herrera is accused of having an abortion or whether she helped someone else get an abortion.Herrera was arrested Thursday and remained jailed Saturday on a $500,000 bond in the Starr County jail in Rio Grande City, on the U.S.-Mexico border, sheriff's Maj.
