with blue. my name is t adora dot com and vasquez. i'm 34 years old. i've been in prison for 10 years and 6 months with a abortion is a crime. thanks to our constitution. and salvador is still one of the few countries

that benz abortions in all cases. so busy over a human rights organizations take advantage of women's lack of education and through forced propaganda and wise, they make them murderers of their unborn daughters and sons. it's a cruel act. it's a barbaric act. ah.

as that i said, let me see. it was the 13th of july, 2007. to agony, ma'am. i was 9 months pregnant. i was working in central san salvador in la la and the pain was unbearable. again, my thing if, when i started making calls the me that they all on the saturday my baby is about to be born. i said about it, but i can't stand the pain. come help me. does that for the family of the police said they would come, he'd but they never did know you that we have to look at my baby was born there and then germany. i fainted from e quicken. when i woke up and i tried to it help

okay, no matter why did you kill her? a man asked me to come along. i haven't killed any one. i sadly applica you said yes, you killed your daughter. now you have to pay them and i kept passing out and got it. okay, i just remember waking up and then fainting again. i would be in my bathroom when i was almost dead it and those as i've been imprisoned over side of the metal, i don't 30, they said it was an abortion. if what didn't they changed it to aggravated homicide . they sentenced me to 30 years. ah. when the summer, when the door opened,

i didn't want to look inside. don't look at any event but an end. not acadia, i didn't want to talk to anyone. who could i can, i didn't want any one talking to me. just i had an enemy. i wanted my baby, but i'd already bought clothes for her that i was so excited. they're me sitting missy women sleep on the floor at 1st. get out and slept on the floor for 7 months and i used to lie there crying. i left staring at the wall, wondering would i be able to leave the plant and when the truth would come out, you're the head decker, but anything? i was afraid that i would never get out again. i thought i won't survive. i'm going to die year money here. momento. the load

is yep. movie. good. that the hearing in january, 2008. and i didn't have a lawyer to defend me. my parents had given a lawyer, $700.00 to take my case. levy the army van. he demanded that they give him land cattle, a house, and a car by the limit, again on my belief that only my parents asked me if they should give him the house . but i couldn't leave them on the street very. nobody had a headline, a guy, so i decided not to have a lawyer as itsyana came out and then i will that i preferred to stay in prison longer than me if it meant my parents and my son would still have a place to live. you can me by that is needed to be an adult living. i don't know how the years went by. and my son grew up without me. me were going to

sandra, saw me by this, but my parents were always worried because they didn't have money to visit me. i was 20 when anela was born. when dad, when he was 3 years old, i got pregnant again. like to visit me most when i was very excited because i wanted to have 2 children and okay, makeeta is that what i want most just to be with anal gabrielle? it element but i missed the best of his childhood. no. am i love him more than ever makin ok? i loved him from the day he was born and will love him until the day i die. i don't get back. they disappeared.

having an abortion goes against their nature against their maternal instinct against their own interests. after an abortion women's suffer clinical depression, but this kind of depression is abhorrent. these women have killed girls and boys who had the right to live on. the other one might had more than 3000 women live in the prison and they are gonna, they don't even have a bed or a blanket to sleep under. and i yeah, there is no running water to the fact that the food is terrible. so i mean, there are only 6 toilets for all these women. do they

am, would you go by? yeah, i met many other inmates and never realized they were in prison on similar charges . i thought i was alone pakistanis one. but i wasn't they don't know if you know the mom we realized there were many women accused of the same crime in 88 and we'll have we were already friends, but we hadn't talked about our cases damage, but opposed to passive, fun them. and he had and think that when they said 30 years, my 1st thought was no criminal cup of them. i've lost everything yet, but i've been a fellow innocent. i haven't seen my daughter since i've been here. but the thing was that i, i don't know how she's doing. i know nothing doing . i was young. i had a fight with the father of my 1st daughter, and i mean, she was 9 years old man and woman. i was 4 months pregnant with them. and that's what they hit me and the baby died. i started bleeding a lot. my daughter saw me bleeding less than that. i just remember that i was given

an injection in the hospital and they put me on a bed that. but that's all that i must all my life. then i woke up around 7 in the evening. i was handcuffed many and they told me not to ask questions and to stay where i was. and i was alone in a room by indiana on the day of my hearing, there was no evidence against me. they only the testimony of one witness. and the dna test gave them a lamp when a light at an who was the witness. my daughter's father, who did you? yes it and you couldn't go no battle since the prosecutor was on their side. they didn't allow lawyer to speak. minnie, i don't know, but they didn't allow my father to speak rather men in a i don't. he was my only witness. and i mean it's like that on up a lot of me but i've been here for almost 11 years and they sentenced me to 30. but what happened to you?

mapquest i was accused of aggravated homicide. yes, telling me that i was at the hospital a felon. there i all squire was handcuffed ab border mosquito. they said i was charged with murder telling me that i had killed my own dorsal mickey as i was shortly. no, no, no, no. you. once i fell down, it was an accident. i had been a long long, i honest about my daughter, a living me ha. they didn't let me see her a moment at the same thing. and i said on the day, maybe you don't get. they asked me why i did it, but kelly, i didn't understand what was happening in and then because i hadn't been, oh, there been any instead, but you did it. the doctor's blame. you. the doctor's called the police law the

thought anyway, but okay. yeah, not on a lab than there. i didn't understand dana, they didn't give me an explanation. they took me to the police station. i believe i was there for about 8 days. how much then they brought me here. name if i hadn't been going on in any one of my daughters is 15 years old and the other is 12 funny, but i got pregnant after being raped by 3 men as phone i'm one of them was my brother. he went to me my phone after my mother died, i lost my baby. 20 days later i was arrested during my baby's funeral. i think i'm in the indiana. yeah. and whether $14.00 policemen were standing at the door of the church. i asked them, why are you looking for me? and they said my name am and i said yes, that's me. they said you're under arrest for murder. i asked why

gay and i didn't kill anyone. they took my baby's body out of the coffin and threw it in the back of the pickup truck. they took my baby and they took me to maryland and i left my 2 daughters behind me. my. my parents were no longer there to take care of them. didn't want to leave them with my brother, the one who had hurt me. my brother, his friends, have their families. while my daughters are suffering from media and they're having a hard time on their own. and i'm suffering without them. he also is there life has been really hard on me in that regard. what i mean? like all in this blue. yes he has, he sort of, i thought, so if i'm the only one, maybe they just got it wrong or maybe they just made

a mistake. try to thank god it was evening when the again, when i learned that there were more of us, i got very angry, think it would be, have wayne. and because it means that el salvador sees women as property, handled at m y 2nd, because that's the end of the dilemma. that is their bed in and said it had these laws allow them to rule over us and the less young get england next sunday. the put out, but we cannot allow women to continue to be imprisoned for pregnancy emergencies. it helps to not do anything about this situation wherein i began to register with emily. man, you seem we'll have to leave port strong relationships. we've decided to unite and defend ourselves, as i meant also get better. lawyers with the citizens group for the de criminalization of abortion, came in 2012 democratic abernathy, called us because 17 sunday and monday where we agreed that they would take on our cases. and that the 1st of us to come out of prison by whatever means quoted,

it would be the 1st to denounce the conditions inside the prison, yet on a special family and eventually at the moment. okay. the ambassadors told us they needed a spokes person to represent us when the girls chose me for a 1000000, but that's how it all started. these days are special for each one of us. we know we are in prison. thought we had our spiritual freedom. see dear alba, i yelled as if the delora and she sighed my order said go ahead. yes, we started with 17 women now there are more of the since 2009. we have identified a 129 cases. gamble hand difficult

the 3rd, but then in addition to political lobbying mobilization and campaigning, no, the citizens group has a legal team that follows up on cases tamia dash is dockers cases on, not just one in the court room. they all want in the streets in the number, okay. ah, the better the, the f m l in party presented a penal code reform to decriminalize abortion inevitable. they get to save their lives, so they don't dine these conditions on as well. i'm president of the legislative assembly lorena pena presented the bill alongside women's groups of wisdom, glen the sal palazzo. they're one of your last you when as a result of rape. when the mother's life is at risk when it's a result of human trafficking and when the case involves a minor candle castle so that they may not as they are though i bring that up and was there seems to contradict the 2nd article of the constitution enshrining the

right to life of every person in that age or levy, the i believe, but as young as they faced with pressure from social organizations to decriminalize abortion. the catholic church objected to these measures, are they asked at the archbishop called on the legislature, not to change the penal code law long as does while the because you in this i'll go the go with. that is the, some of them won't get out because if we are democratic, look at the percentages further on that quint, that the members of the legislator will see that if they vote to legalize abortion, they would be going against a vast majority of the population as young, which christian black also, the constitution says that life begins at the moment of conception. so i don't see why abortion should be judged less severely than aggravated homicide alone. i'll come down what they did. he got from the changing the church as violates due process. they're trying to impose longer sentences. abortion carries a sentence of 2 to 8 years. hello, dasanya blackmore, harris nicholas in the middle, or upper class women who have more money, have 2 options and in dob. either they go to a private clinic and pay over $1000.00 for an abortion,

or they go abroad for the procedure, i think by isa don de larry elise hung out of cause will begin with that. i'll murder is now considered a human right. and it will not a mother's right that allow that this is an ideological relativism that for me, as a politician, it is an ideological up front to the west america and its citizens. the gone, i'm ready got on darcy. this is the largest genocide in human history. much greater than the one carried out during the 2nd world war one back on the other. but again, if you will, cannot arizona harker states, he has not reviewed cases of miscarriages that have led to women's imprisonment by men and gas. what else i want to say when it comes to miscarriages? no woman is being persecuted for having a miscarriage older platform. daniel known woman should go to jail for having an abortion. ah.

for contact on what i understand, unless enough res i was contacted by amnesty international about taking this case will bundle solomon and now exclusively handle cases like this since you left. but i believe it is essential for justice. going to sierra way on the charge against her. dora was aggravated homicide. yahoo! see major contradictions. her silly acted fellow that went up at so another thing of the killing of a new, the st. the 30 to 40 weeks gestation, shemelle them and then who was born alive, but died of parent natal, asphyxia. they have either one, i'll fix upgrade enough that he signs of a 6 year by drowning were found she in love with it. you born died of parent a to las fix year, not that she could not have died by drowning. so mad things are mutually exclusive, film parent aid to las, fix it as a natural cause of death, then it cannot be one on the other at the same time, or course on him with yeah, i don't think the judges even read the autopsy yet. love doctor

by the lake a and that it go when i read tale dora's file, which is very extensive, and then i must admit, i thought this woman is guilty by the file intentionally, leads you to believe that she is guilty. black with the effort of one, but when you sit down and read it more carefully, you wonder them and how is it possible that a woman who wants to have an abortion yet i'm calls the police 5 times to ask them for help. yeah, i believe is, but that meant that law, he guided the medical evidence as conclusive them. if she had a pre term bertha placental abrupt sion with heavy bleeding and lost consciousness . the system for medical history is consistent with the information she provided am . and if yes, the sam at i thought i was 9 months pregnant. and as i was robbed when i was on my way to san salvador, with my sick mother, anthony m we f m. i was robbed on the bus, isn't that on any of the men tried to steal my phone and jumped towards me,

landing right on my belly, enemy style. elizabeth living alone in a blow to the abdomen. and the final trimester can cause placental abrupt sion, which was probably the case with to your dora. because when the baby came, the placenta came with it going on both and because of the injury to the abdomen. this is the most logical conclusion to her. but to your dora, like many others was stigmatized and convicted without evidence. ok if you provoke or instigate in abortion, that is if you give the patient the idea or assist her in any way, you're also go to prison and then i for 2 to 5 years. and that's why health care workers report everything to the police, if miscarriages, or stillbirth. they report any kind of termination of pregnancy, inherently, this is massaging, stigmatization, and persecution for being a woman. no case that but if a woman has a miscarriage,

the 1st thing people think is that it was intentional or fed. when a woman becomes pregnant, she loses all her rights and automatically becomes an incubator. think on get all the rights are violated. starting with a right to life, then the little i mean, ah some of which on the prism and we are fighting for this error to be corrected, but a judges go after 6 months of fighting court of appeals agreed to review the case. so i don't think i don't, that's the current status as a stomach bug me boss or not? i liked it. well, that's the we're back on the radio and we'd like to invite you to join us to morrow . it's an important day. my yeah, we need the support of all of you that will be gathering in front of the c double menendez court to support your daughter, her hearing apple yandell abdul. laura. it was

a crucial day for her and she just there. so be there early from 7 am in front of the court house to show your support and her fight to regain have freedom with

ah, with common for me that what's your family's hope is to position for you? okay. well, what i would like is to her son, to have his mother's love. he has had to live with his grandparents, not his mother desolate, and that we all pray to god that the case will be resolved and she will get her freedom back. let us gavin, by she's been oppressed for so long and unable to take care of her son badly. possibly, it goes back to the faulty investigation. the facts are all there. not much of that that one of us is based on your investigation. is toyota, innocent or guilty? maybe it's that's for the judges to decide based on the evidence. and i'm just

presenting evidence to what is it going on as well? mayor brown, instead of that to be clear, was the child still born, or could it have been killed or? oh, i feel last night that nothing in the autopsy confirms the child ever drew breath bitterly. so it was still born. what i think it didn't draw breath. i had a meeting with what happened to your baby? earlier today? i was 9 months pregnant when my baby came here. i've been in prison ever since 11 years in prison. i how many people are in the same situation?

with emma secondly, 23 of us are accused of this crime that we did not commit quite an item from indiana. the foremost, how were these years in prison knowing you were innocent? very difficult. then if i faced hard times in prison, jeremy caught them. i don't, i think i'm paying for a crime. i didn't commit. i know that he doesn't know for mckinney, her name, talk a little game is, i mean, what is your message to the war world and to countries, lord abortion has still criminalized all question. you may say my message is to review all the cases of women who have been convicted of a crime. similar to mine. seemed like we did not commit this crime. somebody took a knowing look and we need our freedom back because it's our right target in the isn't it. we have a right to freedom that they have violated our freedom with that, just not only my freedom but of many women. and i thought about the state did not

support us, but discriminated against us as women battle. but we have the strength and courage to keep fighting here. but if they get a chance to live below, what are you asking from the judges? ok, like i said, i'm going to give me back my freedom can if i said, i'm going to read that because i am innocent. but again, because i have a family to fight for. now if i meet up again, which had but because i have people who love me and need me to be with them, that's all ah, with

them or did you got it? was it the 30 year sentence was upheld level. so how can a prosecutor say she killed without evidence?

this kind of justice is not justice as i'll see you in the hospital that was easy. ah. with fed up with this situation. we've had enough of the violence against women. people of the world, please support el salvador. we are becoming more and more impoverished, but we are not pool. we aren't covered by the patriarchal capitalist system. we women will keep fighting. this is an injustice. the warning will

in ah, a flower arrangement was given to the legislature by a group of activists and family members of women in prison for health complications

that lead to miscarriage. asked for clemency for 17 women who were sentenced to prison terms of up to 40 years. they were found guilty of aggravated homicide. if you do that, either. this is a distress signal from amnesty international. in el salvador motion is prohibited in cases. please listen with. no, it is a country that has some of the worlds strictest. abortion law just have delayed a rolling on whether to free a woman who was sentenced to 30 years in prison after she gave birth to a still born baby. human rights organizations are calling for an end to el salvador total bond fund and i will gather yeah, go to lawyer, came and gave me a paper and said meet him and you have to stomach read this step with your sentence has been reduced to the time you've already spent here on dennis had left. i do see that tampa for you. i had had a pain and a pretending i took the paper and started reading so as dara. it said that i was

absolved and i said, i thought this can't be true. here so my sentence was just upheld better now, but i read it again and again a 1000 times to make sure i understood a when i hit on when i was informed that i was free, i read out the letter with the other girls that they were crying and we love each other and here, ah, how can what we're family ah, what they thought. the main thing is that we stuck together one in because together we can break down the walls that surround us. ah sam, but they know that my leaving here is a door opening for them to what that lack of data by

people don't understand the reality of women. the worst thing is that women who live in the countryside in small villages are the most vulnerable. no woman who has money is in prison. not one believe me. canada. some of we been doing. we are guilty because we are women. anyway, we have no rights. from the moment we get pregnant, our lives don't matter. with what matters is the fetus we're carrying. looking at when the mother's health doesn't matter. only the child, i imagine a 12 year old girl going to school her future still ahead of her if she gets raped and pregnant, think i think she will be forced to have the child just because of our last name. i believe this is, i'm just gonna say we must raise our voices and say what we feel and think about this issue.
