    Not entirely accurate. Late-term abortions are a thing, but it’s almost always a case of either some birth defect incompatible with life, or the life of the mother being at significant risk. In situations where abortion was always a realistic option, late-term abortions are almost always abortions for pregnancies that were wanted.

    There has been one case I can recall from the last two decade or so of a single doctor performing post-viability abortions, and he ended up being criminally charged.
