WASHINGTON, Mar 17 (LifeSiteNews.com) – The two court cases most responsible for bringing the curse of abortion to the United States are being challenged with support from the primary plaintiffs in both cases. Norma McCorvey, better known as “Jane Roe” in the infamous Roe vs. Wade case, and Sandra Cano-Saucedo, “Mary Doe” in Doe v. Bolton, filed friend-of-the-court briefs in support of a class action lawsuit that strikes at a New Jersey law prohibiting wrongful-death lawsuits when the victim is an unborn child.
Three women who were coerced into abortions are bringing the case forward. One was forced against her will to abort at age 16 while the other two underwent abortions without being fully informed of the effects. The case is Donna Santa Marie v. Christine Todd Whitman.
The Texas Justice Foundation, legal representative for McCorvey and Cano-Saucedo, added, “The case [also] seeks to protect women from coercive abortions, [and] to ensure that women are fully informed of the nature and consequences of abortion. McCorvey revealed at a press conference that she was “used and exploited in the women’s movement and the Supreme Court of the United States.” The case, she said, was fraudulent and she was deceitfully used as a pawn to put forward a radical feminist agenda.
