Queensland - Pfft, who needs rights and liberties?

A young Queensland woman charged with procuring her own abortion has pleaded not guilty.

Tegan Simone Leach, 20, entered a plea of not guilty to one count of procuring her own abortion at the beginning of her trial in Cairns District Court today.

Aye, had a good debate in class last year about the absurdity of the anti-choice movement, and a legalised abortion drug being illegal when used.
