Nicola Packer, 45, is on trial for allegedly inducing an illegal abortion at 26 weeks of pregnancy, despite believing she was not pregnant. She expressed shock upon discovering her pregnancy, stating she had shown no signs and thought her chances of conceiving were negligible due to her age. Legal limits for abortions in England, Scotland, and Wales are set at 24 weeks. Packer denies charges of unlawfully administering drugs to procure a miscarriage and had taken the baby's foetus to the hospital the following day. The trial continues.
I was very shocked. As I know I don't want children I knew I would want a termination.
There had been no indication I was pregnant and I thought my chances of conceiving were basically none, due to my age.
