Alabama drops manslaughter charges against pregnant woman shot during a fight and lost her baby

After reviewing the facts of this case and the applicable state law, I have determined that it is not in the best interest of justice to pursue prosecution of Ms Jones on the misdemeanor charge, for which she was indicted by the grand jury,' said Washington, flanked by her chief assistant and local church leaders.

‘Therefore, I am hereby dismissing this case, and no further legal action will be taken against Ms Jones in this matter.’
