I'm not sure about this. If this is the current law, I know it wasn't always like this. I remember two cases of unborn children being killed, and the accused escaped conviction because the fetus was not deemed to be a human being.
Have you found anything out about this to confirm what you say? I'll have a look around also, I may find something.
