Plugged In: Hospital keeps brain-dead pregnant woman on life support, citing Georgia’s abortion law

View descriptionShare

Adriana Smith, a 30-year-old nurse and mother, was about nine weeks pregnant in February when doctors declared her brain dead after she suffered a medical emergency.

Smith’s family says doctors at Emory University Hospital have been keeping her on life support because she is pregnant, citing Georgia’s restrictive abortion law.

In this week’s episode of “Plugged In,” hosts Sam Gringlas and Rahul Bali take a closer look at the case and its possible implications.

Plus, a former Atlanta mayor says she’s running for governor and some Republicans say they want to eliminate the state income tax.
