Please explain this one to me...

"A 19-year-old East Texas man faces a life prison sentence for causing his teenage girlfriend to miscarry twins, even though she wanted to end the pregnancy. [...] Erica Basoria acknowledged asking Flores [her boyfriend, the 19th year old] to help end her pregnancy. But the 17-year-old can't be prosecuted because of her legal right to abortion."

HT: streiff.

And some people feel bad for him.
