The woman became pregnant 13 weeks ago after wandering away from her group home. The father has not been identified and it's not known if their encounter was rape or consensual. The case is still under investigation, but Judge Egan Walker thinks it would be "illogical and contrary to law" to keep him from examining evidence to determine if the woman should be ordered to abort the baby.
The woman's Catholic adoptive parents feel that they should be the ones to make such a medical decision for her, as her legal guardians. They are against abortion and say that six couples are interested in adopting the baby.
As of now, there are no orders for the woman to have an abortion, but there are many eyes on this case.
What do you think? Who should make this call--a judge or the woman's parents?
