Ситуация с мамой в 21-04, Кариси помогает девочке, сбежавшей в НЙ, получить право остаться здесь и сделать аборт. Она забеременела после насилия в семье, а в их штате аборты запрещены.

Прокурор другого округа потом говорит Кариси: Well, Counselor, you destroyed a family, and helped ensure the murder of another innocent child.

Кариси: I believe in God, Mr. Graham. And I understand abortion causes a death.

Прокурор: Do you?

Кариси: My mother got pregnant when she was 45. This is after having four kids. An ultrasound showed that the-- the baby had a fetal heart defect. Even if she was able to carry to term, the doctor said the baby wasn't gonna live for more than a few days. My mother decided to terminate. She never told my father, he-- she told me. She said how much she loved that baby, but she didn't think it was fair. It wasn't fair to her other children, it wasn't fair to that kid. It was only gonna know pain. And then she cried for a week. I didn't know-- I didn't know what to say to her, but I do know that we both grieved.

А теперь вернемся к речи Барбе на суде:

There were these, um, flowers on the table, next to Drew's crib. Orange roses. He would never know how wonderful they are. He couldn't smell them. His mom was playing one of Bach's cantatas, from her phone. The eternal Bach. Drew couldn't hear it. He'd never see a cloud. A rainbow. Um, the sun. The moon. The bottom line is that he would never even know that these things existed. He didn't know if he was hungry or thirsty. He couldn't recognize the faces of his mother or his father. All that he did know, all that he would ever know is the pain.

Что бы они ни говорили, у них был совершенно один и тот же вывод, который привел к тому, к чему привел. Я должен прекратить жизнь этого ребенка, потому что он в этой так называемой жизни будет знать только боль.
