Jill Adams quoted by Rewire, Nov. 30, 2016
Jill Adams … told Rewire that Yocca’s case is a “first-of-its-kind prosecution” that is not supported by the language of the law or by the state constitution. “Ms. Yocca’s situation happened to transpire in the only two-year period in which Tennessee had a law on the books that permitted pregnant people to be prosecuted for negative pregnancy outcomes,” Adams said.
