This bill would have changed Kentucky's fetal homicide law to allow criminal prosecution of a pregnant woman herself under that law. Currently, the fetal homicide statute is used to charge someone who harms or kills a fetus without the mother's consent, and this bill would have expanded who can be charged under it. Who it may affect: pregnant women in Kentucky.
