Appeals court in El Salvador acquits a 21-year-old rape victim accused of killing her stillborn baby, in a case closely watched by rights groups
Evelyn Hernandez, who was sentenced to 30 years in prison for a suspected abortion, attends a hearing in Ciudad Delgado, El Salvador on August 19, 2019.
Hernandez's lawyer, Bertha Maria Deleon, triumphantly announced the verdict on Twitter: "Acquitted! Yes we could." She said her son was stillborn but a court in the city of Cojutepeque convicted her of murder after prosecutors said she was culpable of not having sought prenatal care.
