Iowa City couple press for law on involuntary fetal death
Iowa City couple Doug and Jean Fisher urged lawmakers at the Statehouse to criminalize involuntary fetal death in a bill proposed by Rep. Neil Harrison. The Fishers, who lost a seven month fetus after a car crash caused by Chadwick Hippler, distributed flowers to support harsher penalties for harming an unborn child without the mother’s consent. Rep. Arthur Ollie favors a separate approach focusing on crimes against the mother in accidental fetal death cases.
