I heard on the radio that a woman and her UNBORN child were killed in a car accident recently. It did not specify how far along the woman was, but it did say that the man who hit them is being charged for fetal homicide. Fetal homicide is basically when someone kills an unborn baby (fetus). Wouldn't abortion fall under that category?

The fertilized egg has value (in my position). Why not just "homicide"? Isn't a distinction being made between "fetus" if the charge is not simply homicide? I simply suggest that, in relative terms, the existing woman has more relative value than the fertilized egg in the womb, attached to the umbilical cord.
