Burgess was sentenced for burning and burying a fetus she aborted. She was not charged under Nebraska’s abortion law despite ending her pregnancy after 20 weeks. Investigation started in June 22, before SCOTUS’ decision, and before state lawmakers enacted a 12-weeks ban. https://www.cnn.com/2023/07/20/us/nebraska-teen-abortion-celeste-burgess/index.html https://nypost.com/2023/07/20/nebraska-teen-celeste-burgess-sentenced-for-late-term-abortion/ https://www.axios.com/2023/07/20/nebraska-teen-abortion-jail
