Atlanta woman declared brain dead, kept on life support because she's pregnant raises legal questions about Georgia's restrictive abortion law

from Political Breakfast from WABE · host WABE

On this edition of Political Breakfast, the team talks about the life of Adriana Smith, her unborn child and a Georgia law that appears to be holding her grieving family hostage. Adriana is brain dead, but has been kept on life support since February because she's pregnant. Her family says it's time for Adriana to rest in peace -- peace that's entangled in a restrictive law that bans most abortions after six weeks. It's an issue people are talking about, including host, Lisa Rayam, Republican strategist Brian Robinson and the Atlanta Civic Circle's Saba Long, who is sitting-in for Tharon Johnson.
