Tierra Walker Died Under Texas’s Abortion Ban. Now Her Family Is Suing.
Keeps playing with the screen off. The episode is played from Boom! Lawyeredβs own podcast host.
Tierra Walker knew her pregnancy could kill her, so she asked about an abortion. Not one of the more than 90 doctors who saw Walker offered her abortion care.Β
Now her family is suing the doctors, hospitals, and Texas officials who failed her, including Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton. Imani Gandy explains how the state created an abortion regime that terrifies doctors into inaction, then blames those doctors when patients dieβand why that regime still doesnβt excuse that Walkerβs doctors failed to save her life by providing an abortion.
