Carpenter, and his promise to help her, she decides to go ahead with the procedure. When Ethan and
his family file a lawsuit on behalf of the child's right to life, the drama escalates as Emma's mother, Kerri,
contacts a friend in the Associated Press. Before long, the case is mired in media frenzy. The court has to
