The case appears to be the first time criminal charges have been filed against an abortion provider for sending pills into a state with an abortion ban.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The charges mark a new chapter in an escalating showdown between states that ban abortion and those that want to protect and expand access to it. It is challenging one of the foremost strategies used by states that support abortion rights: shield laws intended to provide legal protection to doctors who prescribe and send abortion pills to states with bans.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The charges were brought against Dr. Margaret Carpenter, who was operating under New York\u2019s telemedicine abortion shield law, which stipulates that New York authorities will not cooperate with prosecutions or other legal actions filed against New York abortion providers by other states.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Telemedicine abortion <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/02\/22\/health\/abortion-shield-laws-telemedicine.html\" title=\"\">shield laws<\/a>, which have been adopted by eight states so far, have become a significant avenue for providing access to abortion for women in states with bans without requiring them to leave their state. Doctors, nurse practitioners and other health care providers in states with shield laws have been sending more than 10,000 abortion pills per month to states with abortion bans or restrictions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Legal experts said the case ratchets up the legal wars over abortion and will almost certainly end up in federal court and possibly the Supreme Court. It is expected to become a major test of whether states can apply criminal laws to people acting outside their borders.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Since the Supreme Court\u2019s 2022 decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women\u2019s Health Organization overturning the national right to abortion, the United States has been divided between states that restrict abortion and states that protect abortion.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cThere\u2019s just been a sense that if you were in a blue state, you\u2019re shielded from the consequences of Dobbs,\u201d said Mary Ziegler, a law professor and abortion expert at the University of California, Davis. \u201cProsecutions like this undermine that assumption, and we don\u2019t know exactly how, or how much, but you can\u2019t take that for granted.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Federal courts will have to sort out \u201cwhere the line will be drawn and even which precedents the courts will be willing to overrule,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s not clear what will happen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The Louisiana indictment, by a grand jury in West Baton Rouge Parish, follows what is believed to be the first <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/12\/13\/us\/texas-new-york-abortion-pills-lawsuit.html\" title=\"\">civil suit filed against an abortion provider in a shield-law state<\/a>. That case was filed in December by the Texas attorney general, Ken Paxton, also against Dr. Carpenter, for prescribing and sending pills to a woman in Texas.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">On Friday, Tony Clayton, the district attorney who oversees West Baton Rouge, said in an interview, \u201cI just don\u2019t know under what theory could a doctor be thinking that you should ship your pills to Louisiana to abort our citizens\u2019 babies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">He added: \u201cThe pill may be legal in New York. It\u2019s not legal in Louisiana.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In response to the charges, Gov. Kathy Hochul of New York said <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/GovKathyHochul\/status\/1885402057890259448\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">in a video posted on X<\/a>, \u201cI will never, under any circumstances, turn this doctor over to the state of Louisiana under any extradition request.\u201d She pledged \u201cto do everything I can to protect this doctor and allow her to continue the work that she\u2019s doing that is so essential.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/03\/25\/health\/abortion-pills.html\" title=\"\">use of abortion medication<\/a> has grown significantly in recent years. Medication abortions now account for nearly two-thirds of pregnancy terminations in the United States. The method is typically used through 12 weeks of pregnancy and involves two drugs \u2014 mifepristone, which stops a pregnancy from developing, followed a day or two later by misoprostol, which causes contractions similar to a miscarriage.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In 2021, the Food and Drug Administration <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2021\/12\/16\/health\/abortion-pills-fda.html\" title=\"\">lifted a rule requiring patients to obtain mifepristone in person<\/a>, allowing the medication to be sent through the mail.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The ability to mail the medications, bolstered by shield laws, has made it much more difficult for states with bans to prevent their residents from getting access to abortion. The actions filed against Dr. Carpenter in Texas and Louisiana are part of a campaign to limit that access.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-3\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Abortion opponents are also pressing the Trump administration to revive a 151-year-old federal anti-vice law known as the <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2023\/05\/16\/us\/comstock-act-1978-abortion-pill.html\" title=\"\">Comstock Act<\/a> and use it to try to prevent the mailing of abortion pills.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In the Louisiana case, the grand jury indicted Dr. Carpenter and her medical practice for \u201ccriminal abortion by means of abortion-inducing drugs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Dr. Carpenter, of New Paltz, N.Y., did not comment on the case on Friday, and efforts to reach lawyers representing her were unsuccessful.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The court documents, which include few details, indicate that the case involved a girl who was under 18 whose mother ordered abortion pills and gave them to her in April 2024. The mother was also charged with violating the state\u2019s abortion ban.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Clayton, the West Baton Rouge district attorney, said the authorities became aware of the case after a police officer responded to a 911 call placed by the teenager.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-4\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cThe officer at the time thought he was dealing with a child who was having a miscarriage,\u201d Mr. Clayton said. After the police took the teenager to a hospital, the authorities learned that she had taken abortion medication and the investigation became criminal, he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Clayton, who declined to disclose the age or other details about the girl, said that \u201cthe evidence will show that the child had planned a reveal party\u201d and did not want an abortion. He said that charges would not be filed against the girl.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Police records show that the mother, whose name The New York Times is not disclosing to protect the identity of her daughter, was arrested and released on bond. Attempts to reach her on Friday were unsuccessful.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cThe allegations in this case have nothing to do with reproductive health care,\u201d said Liz Murrill, the state attorney general. \u201cThis is about coercion. This is about forcing somebody to have an abortion who didn\u2019t want one.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The attorney general of New York, Letitia James, said in a statement, \u201cThis cowardly attempt out of Louisiana to weaponize the law against out-of-state providers is unjust and un-American.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-5\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">She added: \u201cMedication abortion is safe, effective and necessary, and New York will ensure that it remains available to all Americans who need it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Dr. Carpenter is a specialist in reproductive health and a co-founder of the <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theactgroup.org\/\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Abortion Coalition for Telemedicine<\/a>, an organization that advocates access to telehealth abortion in all 50 states.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cShield laws across the country enable licensed health care professionals to successfully deliver reproductive health care to patients in under-resourced areas nationwide,\u201d the coalition said in a statement on Friday, adding, \u201cThis state-sponsored effort to prosecute a doctor providing safe and effective care should alarm everyone.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Anti-abortion activists praised the Louisiana charges.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cThis case exposes how mail-order abortion drugs are fueling an epidemic of coercion, a new form of domestic violence against mothers and their babies,\u201d Katie Daniel, director of legal affairs for SBA Pro-Life America, said in a statement. The statement commended Louisiana for tightening laws against abortion medication and said, \u201cIn blue states, pro-abortion politicians are doing the polar opposite, shielding abortionists.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In the Texas lawsuit, Dr. Carpenter was accused of providing abortion pills to a 20-year-old woman in July. The suit said the woman later asked the \u201cbiological father of her unborn child\u201d to take her to the emergency room because of \u201csevere bleeding,\u201d and he learned at that time that she was nine weeks pregnant.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Paxton said that by filing the Texas lawsuit, he was seeking to have the court stop Dr. Carpenter from continuing to provide abortion medication to patients in Texas, and to apply Texas\u2019 ban on abortion to her. The ban carries a penalty of at least $100,000 for each violation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-798hid etfikam0\">Kirsten Noyes<!-- --> contributed research.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\"
