The National Organization for Women’s Morris County chapter decided to get involved in the Laci Peterson murder case. It seems they didn’t like how murder charges were being filed on behalf on an unborn baby since they’re afraid such precedents could later be applied to late-term abortions. This is just another case of a group picking a really bad horse to get behind. Whether or not they valid concerns here is irrelevant. It was just stupid to pick such a public and emotionally charged case to get involved in. That’s probably why the national headquarters decided to distance themselves from the Morris County chapter.
