Souvenir bat wielding boyfriend is charged

The PRNewswire is reporting that Macomb County prosecutors will charge a teenager for killing his unborn child by hitting the stomach of his pregnant girlfriend with souvenir baseball bat over the span of weeks.

I first commented on this story(not the charges - that's new news) when it ran in the Detroit newspapers in November.

I'm glad they are charging the boyfriend but find it odd that the girlfriend is not being charged since she was a willing participant and if I recall correctly, one story even suggested that it might have been her idea but I guess they can't charge her if the law doesn't say you can.
