This headline is a bit misleading. She didn’t just help her daughter have an abortion, she helped her have a late-term abortion, and then burnt & buried the remains.
“According to prosecutors, after the pair bought pills to end the pregnancy, Celeste Burgess gave birth to a stillborn fetus. At the time, Nebraska law banned abortion after 20 weeks of pregnancy. Celeste Burgess’s pregnancy was well past that point, according to court records.
Police say that the Burgesses buried the fetal remains. An examination of the remains suggested they may have also been burned, according to court documents.”

What a horrifying hellscape Nebraska must be for a mother and daughter to feel the need to go to such lengths for healthcare.
This is what happens when states destroy access to reproductive healthcare. Desperate people to stupid things.
I totally agree with you!
