Is it a child or a paramecium?

A Pittsburgh woman was charged with "abuse of a corpse" after the body of a baby was found in the freezer. Remarkably, the charges might not stick:

Lt. Daniel Herrmann said the abuse of a corpse charge applies only to human beings. Under the law, he said, a fetus is not considered a human being.

Not human? Slice of Laodicea captures my sentiments exactly:

Okay, Americans. George Bush always reminds us of what a good hearted people we all are, every time he gives a speech. If we're all so good hearted how did such a moral trainwreck happen that we can't identify a human being when we find one in the freezer? The photo in this post was taken by the new 4D ultrasound machines. This is a baby in the womb. Or is it? What exactly is in the picture? If it's not a human being than what is it? A baby leopard? A paramecium? Is it a close-up shot of a cryptosporidium? A mold spore? A camel in early gestation?

There's really no question that the child's body is that of a human. This case reveals the ugly truth that an entire category of defenseless individuals are not considered worthy of protection by a government that at one time stood for "liberty and justice for all".
