The Arizona Supreme Court recently ruled that a 1864 abortion law that bans abortion – unless the pregnant person’s life is in danger – will go into effect.

Dr. Rosa G. Boido was Arizona's first female physician. She was also arrested, convicted & sent to prison for providing abortion-related healthcare. Police seized her personal jewelry at arrest & AZ canceled her license.

When AZ locked up a doctor who provided reproductive healthcare that authorities suspected was abortion. (Not in the piece: the doc the authorities asked to examine the patient refused b/c he feared arrest.) Could those days return? (Listen to Eva Burch)
