[QUOTE="POSITIVE DISCONTENT, post: 1858405, member: 4973"] [url]http://michellemalkin.com/2012/07/30/the-13th-fatality-of-the-aurora-theater-shooting-and-justice-for-unborn-victims/[/url] Yet, authorities will not charge the alleged shooter for this additional tragic death: The miscarriage of one critically injured Aurora shooting victim will not result in additional homicide charges for the suspect, a former prosecutor said Sunday. According to defense attorney Karen Steinhauser, currently an ajunct professor at the University of Denver, Mosers miscarriage wont result in a new homicide charge for suspect James Holmes. Homicide charges only apply to those who have been born and alive, Steinhauser said. But couldnt the alleged shooter be charged under the Unborn Victims of Violence Act, which covers certain federal crimes of terrorism? Perhaps, via the NRLC, it is time for the state of Colorado to join the 36 other states in the nation that recognize unborn victims: What appears below is a summary of the laws of the 36 states that recognize the unlawful killing of an unborn child as homicide in at least some circumstances. The federal Unborn Victims of Violence Act, enacted April 1, 2004, covers unborn victims of federal and military crimes. Full-Coverage Unborn Victim States (27) (States With Homicide Laws That Recognize Unborn Children as Victims Throughout the Period of Pre-natal Development) Alabama: Legislation taking effect July 1, 2006 (HB 19) amended Section 13A-6-1 of the Code of Alabama to include an unborn child in utero at any stage of development, regardless of viability as a person and human being for purposes of the state laws dealing with murder, manslaughter, criminally negligent homicide, and assault. Alaska: Alaska Statutes 11.41 (as amended by Senate Bill 20, enacted June 16, 2006) establishes the crimes of murder of an unborn child, manslaughter of an unborn child, criminally negligent homicide of an unborn child, and assault of an unborn child. Alaska Statutes 11.81.900(b) defines unborn child as a member of species Homo sapiens, at any stage of development, who is carried in the womb. Arizona: The unborn child in the womb at any stage of its development is fully covered by the states murder and manslaughter statutes. For purposes of establishing the level of punishment, a victim who is an unborn child shall be treated like a minor who is under twelve years of age. Senate Bill 1052, signed into law on April 25, 2005, amending the following sections of the Arizona Revised Statutes: 13-604, 13-604.01, 13-703, 13-1102, 13-1103, 13-1104, 13-1105, 13-4062, 31-412, 41-1604.11 and 41-1604.13. Georgia: Legislation taking effect July 1, 2006 (SB 77) recognizes an unborn child (defined as a member of the species homo sapiens at any stage of development who is carried in the womb) as a victim of the offenses of feticide, voluntary manslaughter of an unborn child, assault of an unborn child, and battery of an unborn child. (Official Code of Georgia Annotated, Sections 16-5-20, 16-5-28, 16-5-29, 16-5-80) Legislation (SB 529) taking effect July 1, 2008 recognizes the crimes of feticide by vehicle in the first and second degree. (Section 40-6-393.1) Idaho: Murder is defined as the killing of a human embryo or fetus under certain conditions. The law provides that manslaughter includes the unlawful killing of a human embryo or fetus without malice. The law provides that a person commits aggravated battery when, in committing battery upon the person of a pregnant female, that person causes great bodily harm, permanent disability or permanent disfigurement to an embryo or fetus.
