Brittany Watts, the Black Ohio woman who was charged after having a miscarriage in her bathroom toilet, says a nurse called the police on her: www.nbcnews.com/news/nbcblk/...

Upon arriving at the hospital a third time in the middle of her miscarriage, Watts said a nurse reassured her that “everything’s going to be OK.” Meanwhile, that nurse, whom the hospital has not identified, called the police, Watts said. In a call with a 911 dispatcher shared by CBS News, the nurse said Watts “didn’t want to look” at the fetus. She also alleged Watts “didn’t want the baby and she didn’t look,” according to the 911 audio. Watts said, however, this was not true.

“I said I did not want to look,” Watts said Friday. “I have never said I didn’t want my baby. I would have never said something like that. It just makes me angry that somebody would put those type of words in my mouth to make me seem so callous and so — so hateful.”

Why the fuck would she want to look at her miscarriage? Fuck that nurse. This is horrifying.

I would burn the building down, I’m so sorry you had to go through that. I share that pain, and I’m so angry about all of this.

What is wrong with 'Mericans! You don't get to call other countries racist when shit like this happens. That poor woman, miscarrying is so traumatic, the sense of loss is just awful. That nurse needs to be chrged with dereliction of duty and removed from Nursing immediately.

I think it’s also important that this was a Catholic hospital. They’ve been hostile to women experiencing miscarriage for ages. Absolutely horrid.

As you'd expect from the name, Mercy Health, where she miscarried, is a Catholic hospital.
