A Texas woman has sued a man she says dosed her with abortion pills against her will as well as the provider who she says supplied the pills.
The woman, Liana Davis, on Monday filed a federal wrongful death lawsuit against the telemedicine abortion service Aid Access and its founder, Dr Rebecca Gomperts, as well as a man named Christopher Cooprider, a US marine who Davis said impregnated her and subsequently dosed her with abortion pills.

Typically, US abortions consist of two drugs, mifepristone and misoprostol. While mifepristone is usually swallowed, misoprostol is meant to dissolve slowly in the vagina, under the tongue or in someone’s cheeks.
Soon afterward, Davis began cramping and bleeding, her lawsuit alleges. Cooprider said that he would pick up Davis’s mother, so that she could watch Davis’ children while they went to the emergency room. However, Cooprider did not return.
Davis then allegedly discovered the box of abortion mifepristone that Cooprider had ordered from Aid Access, which Cooprider had left at her house. The box was empty. Davis also allegedly found an orange pill bottle containing both mifepristone and…
