The doctor who performed the abortion on the 10-year-old rape survivor sent a cease and desist letter to the Indiana Attorney General, telling him to stop making false and misleading statements. Ohio's abortion law doesn't allow exceptions for rape or incest if the baby is less than six weeks old.

After initially raising questions about whether the case was real, many Republicans and conservatives attacked the Indiana doctor in the case.

The doctor was threatened with criminal prosecution if she didn't file the required paperwork within three days of the abortion. On Fox News, he made similar accusations about Bernard.

After several news organizations obtained copies of the reports showing Bernard submitted them on time, she continued to be questioned about whether she had filed the correct paperwork. The lawyer wrote that Bernard and her patients were in danger.

If and when the letter arrives, it will be reviewed. There have been no false or misleading statements.

Since the Supreme Court struck down abortion restrictions in 1973, Indiana has not enacted any new restrictions.

"We want to impress on the lawmakers the importance of including exemptions for life and health, rape, and incest," said a board member with Physicians for reproductive health. We wouldn't have the ability to care for patients like the 10-year-old child if all of those exemptions were excluded.

The exception for the health of the pregnant woman, rape, and incest has overwhelming public support, but it is not included in most GOP states.
