Dr. Maggie Carpenter, a New York physician, has been fined over $100,000 by a Texas court for prescribing abortion pills via telemedicine. Texas officials are pursuing action against Carpenter for violating state law, while Louisiana has charged her with prescribing pills to a minor. New York's Governor Kathy Hochul rejected Louisiana's extradition request, citing state shield laws. The cases against Carpenter highlight the legal challenges surrounding abortion access post-Roe v. Wade, testing protective measures for out-of-state medical professionals and raising concerns about inter-state legal conflicts.
