Amber Thurman’s family are suing doctors for her death. This is a quote from their high-profile civil rights and personal injury attorney Ben Crump. He held a news conference October 1st accusing doctors at Piedmont Henry Hospital in Stockbridge, Georgia, of not acting quickly enough to save Amber Thurman’s life in 2022.
“But Crump blamed doctors, not the law, for Thurman’s death.
Even under Georgia law, the doctors had a duty to act to save Amber,” he said. “She had taken the abortion pills and there were tissues left. There was no viable fetus or anything that would have prevented them from saving her life while she suffered.”
