Last
month,
BOSSIP
reported
on
the
case
of
33-year-old
Brittany
Watts
of
Warren,
Ohio.
Watts
suffered
a
traumatic
and
unfortunate
miscarriage
at
her
home
after
making
several
visits
to
the
hospital
for
bleeding
for
fear
that
it
might
have
been
related
to
her
pregnancy.
Watts
attempted
to
dispose
of
the
fetus
material
using
the
same
methods
advised
by
medical
personnel
for
women
who
have
taken
an
abortion-inducing
pill.
Watts
had
not
taken
said
pill,
but
that
has
no
bearing
on
her
means
of
disposal
following
her
miscarriage.
Despite
the
mental
and
physical
pain
she
endured,
Watts
was
injured
further
when
police
arrested
her
and
charged
her
with
the
mutilation
of
the
corpse
of
a
baby
that
she
admittedly
did
not
want
to
bring
to
term.
According
to
NBC
4i,
Watts
is
speaking
publicly
for
the
first
time
since
news
of
her
criminal
charges
made
rounds
in
local
news
and
on
social
media.
“I
was
distraught,
heartbroken,
empty
—
literally
and
figuratively,
so
to
speak,”
Brittany
Watts
said
in
a
text
message
to the
I-Team at
Nexstar’s
WJW
Monday
night.
She
was
describing
how
she
felt
after
she
miscarried
her
pregnancy.
Watts
has
retained
the
legal
services
of
Traci
Timko
and
the
lawyer
states
that
her
client
“was
told
very
clearly
the
fetus
was
not
viable
and
could
not
and
would
not
survive.”
So,
what
exactly
would
the
police
have
this
woman
do?
Should
she
have
retained
the
fetus
remains
and
brought
it
to
them?
For
her
part,
Watts
openly
admits
that
she
went
to
the
hospital
twice
that
same
week
but
did
not
stay
for
her
appointments
after
long
waits
to
see
a
doctor,
reports
NBC
4.
This
was
her
first
pregnancy,
one
that
she
didn’t
even
tell
her
family
about
because
she
was
so
afraid.
It’s
fair
to
presume
that
despite
the
horror
of
the
miscarriage,
Brittany
Watts
was
likely
relieved
that
she
was
no
longer
pregnant
and
wanted
to
move
on
with
her
life
the
best
way
she
knew
how.
She
went
to
get
her
hair
done
and
her
concerned
hairdresser
drove
her
to
the
hospital
after
learning
of
what
had
happened.
A
nurse
at
the
hospital
called
the
police
after
being
told
that
Watts
did
not
want
the
child
and
had
flushed
the
remains
down
the
toilet.
NBC
4i
adds
that
a
forensic
pathologist
also
testified
there
were
no
injuries
found
on
the
fetus
and
that
the
fetus
died
before
passing
through
the
birth
canal.
Police
were
quick
to
seize
that
toilet
and
the
bucket
that
Watts
used
to
clean
her
bathroom
and
promptly
charged
her
with
felony
abuse
of
a
corpse.
How
the
hell
does
any
of
that
make
sense?
