Three people arrested after drugging pregnant woman with abortion pill
Three people have been arrested for repeatedly attempting to force a woman into an unwanted chemical abortion while she was sleeping.
Jean Brando Zintz was allegedly angry when his fiancée became pregnant.
His mother offered her $10,000 to have an abortion. She refused.
Then she began experiencing medical complications, including bleeding and low blood pressure, and woke up with a white, chalky substance in her mouth.
Zintz's brother told her that Zintz had been drugging her, putting abortion pills under her tongue while she slept, and replacing her prenatal vitamins with abortion pills.
The woman and her preborn baby survived, and Zintz and two others have been arrested.
Three people have been arrested and charged in Washington state in a case involving the drugging of a pregnant woman with abortion pills, including while she slept. 32-year-old Jean Brando Zintz, his brother, 30-year-old Michael Moises Montano, and 30-year-old Ciara Miller are each facing charges related to attempted manslaughter and second-degree assault. Zintz was arrested in Arizona and is awaiting extradition back to Washington.
Thankfully, the woman and her baby both survived; she is due later this year.
In March, a woman, who has remained anonymous, told Zintz, her fiancé, that she was pregnant, but he was not happy about the news. His mother was seemingly angry as well, offering the woman $10,000 to have an abortion; Zintz urged her to take the money and have the abortion. She refused, and Zintz's attitude changed. But the woman soon began experiencing health concerns, like bleeding, low blood pressure, and sometimes feeling so "out of it" that she couldn't walk. She also said she would wake up with a white, chalky substance in her mouth.
In October, Montano messaged the woman on Facebook several times and said Zintz had been drugging her. He asked for $100 in exchange for physical evidence proving his accusations.
“Just know the truth,” Montano wrote, according to court records. “He tried killing your baby, and in the end your (sic) lucky because he failed and was planning something else entirely once and for all to get rid of you ‘the problem’ before it was to (sic) late and destroyed his life for good.”
According to Montano, Zintz had been buying prenatal vitamins for the woman but was replacing them with abortion pills. He had allegedly obtained the abortion pills from Miller, Montano's partner. Zintz also allegedly gave his pregnant fiancée benzodiazepines, which can make a person drowsy, as well as oxycodone, and then, while she was sleeping, he put the abortion drug mifepristone under her tongue.
Mifepristone is the first of two pills in the abortion pill regimen. It works by depriving the preborn baby of oxygen and nutrients. The second drug is misoprostol, which causes contractions to expel the body of the baby.
The woman ceased contact with Zintz in July, and her health began to improve. According to the Bellingham Herald, she reached out to the Bellingham Police Department in October to allege that Zintz had been drugging her. When police searched Zintz' apartment, they found "misoprostol packages, oxycodone prescriptions, a prenatal pill bottle, the sleep aid melatonin and suspected lab equipment."
Cases of abortion pill poisoning have been rising since the Biden administration allowed abortion pills to be ordered online and shipped through the mail. And as long as the abortion pill is so easy for anyone to access, women and preborn children will continue to be at risk.
