Approximately 2,694,402 people in Texas, or 12.4% of the adult population, have diagnosed diabetes.
An additional 621,000 people in Texas have diabetes but don’t know it, greatly increasing their health risk.
There are 7,142,000 people in Texas, 34% of the adult population, who have prediabetes with blood glucose levels that are higher than normal but not yet high enough to be diagnosed as diabetes.
Every year an estimated 201,104 people in Texas are diagnosed with diabetes.
I think the burned and buried fetus had something to do with it. Illegal disposal of a body. Not to mention the abortion (if it was an abortion, those pills don’t usually work that late into a pregnancy) was well past NE’s pre-Dobbs 22-week restriction. Not really a post-Roe situation, just a really gruesome case the police had every right to investigate and serve warrants for.
It is something that wouldn’t have happened if the child was allowed the medical treatment she needed so it is most definitely a post-Roe situation. Similar situations will not be uncommon where access to abortion is restricted.
Double so when people see things like the right to an abortion through a narrow lens of “women’s issues” rather than a fundamental right to bodily autonomy and privacy issue. As long as people keep dismissing this as a “woman’s issue” shit will not get fixed.
If it’s not legally a human being then it’s not illegal disposal of a body. Women have miscarriages all the time, and under most circumstances they are under no special legal obligation in regards to what they do with the fetus.
“This morning, while traveling with my family, 3 FBI agents visited me and seized my cell phone. They made no attempt to contact my lawyer, who would have made arrangements for them to have my phone if that was their wish,” Perry said in the statement.
It is just so unfair that the FBI is just acting on search warrants without giving criminal suspects a heads up first so they have a chance to destroy evidence.
I would love for these assholes to have to ‘walk a mile in the shoes’ of someone who’s BIPOC or LGBTQ+; then they’d really have something to complain about, aside from merely facing some consequences for their actions.
Imagine if the DEA afforded drug suspects the same deference these Republican politicians expect from the FBI.
DEA: Hello, this is the Baltimore division of the Federal Drug Enforcement Agency. Are you the attorney for a local independent business operator known as Euphoria Joe? Attorney: Yes I am. DEA: Great, as it happens we are conducting an investigation that may involve your client. We’d like to schedule a visit at his warehouse property at 377 Sketchmann Lane for sometime next week. It would be helpful if he can also bring any cell phones or electronic devices he uses for business communications. Attorney: Oooh, I’m afraid next week is a bad time. Let me confer with him and get back to you.
