kristin wright is in rockville to explain this story. kristin. r reached out to laura wallen's family about the fact that her boyfriend tyler tessier will not face additional charges for the death of the fetus. turns out they have a big meeting scheduled with the governor's office to talk about it. now, they only talked to news 4 about this, and they also shared this video with us of laura on horseback while visiting a nonprofit for kids that she supported. we found out today that an autopsy showed that laura's fetus was 14 weeks and not viable outside of the womb. that is why prosecutors are not charging tessier in the death of the fetus under maryland law. she wasn't far enough along, so tessier is only charged with murdering laura. her family says she understand maryland law but their goal for the future is to have state lawmakers look at fetal homicide and revisit the parameters that say if the fetus cannot live outside the womb, it is there is also a push to bring federal charges against tessier. the state's attorney says that is not likely.
