Self-Abortion Charge After Fetus Found in Trash in Washington Heights - NYTimes.com: After a dead fetus was found in a Washington Heights building's trash, police charged Yaribely Almonte, 20, with self-abortion in the first degree, a misdemeanor charge that has been used only a few times in New York State. Although it was unclear how old the fetus was, the charge applies when the abortion occurs after 24 weeks of pregnancy, when it is legal only if a woman’s doctor says her life is in danger.
