It is also unclear how far along the two inmates are, and whether they plan to continue with their respective pregnancies.

So these women could potentially give birth to a baby in prison, and what? Immediately give it up for the foster system? Putting further strain on stressed systems, and bringing a child who will statistically be 2.5 times more likely to become an inmate itself? Who will be paying the hospital bills? What's the likelihood this happens again?

Thank god we didn't hurt the feelings of the transgender, though. THAT would be criminal.
