The medical experts were cross-examined. The prosecutor had the opportunity and failed to bring it up because I'm assuming the prosecutor is well aware an eating disorder carries a high risk to the health of the fetus. We'll agree to disagree. I've posted links to support my opinion an eating disorder can result in stillbirth which is the conclusion of this jury.Well that's easy -- the medical expert was hired by the defense to promote ED birth complications to support their position! It doesn't follow that their expert would testify about other ED women with healthy babies! That's silly...
From your link:
BRS did not have miscarriage
She did not have cesarean
She did not have breech
Just the opposite -- she had full term baby delivered by the mother without complications.
Mom cleaned up, and went to baseball game to celebrate her boyfriends birthday.
Given her pregnancy weight at about 149 -- (estimate 29-34 pregnancy gain), she probably did not have a low birth weight baby either.
Good example of BSR (with ED) didn't present with the adverse stats provided above, and more evidence that women with ED can still have healthy babies.
