"Roe v Wade: Woman in US abortion legal test case dies" on Roe v. Wade

“Having turned to religion, McCorvey then said being part of the decision to legalise abortion "was the biggest mistake of my life".”

“McCorvey first filed the case in 1969 - she was pregnant with her third child and said she had been raped. But the case was rejected and she gave birth.”

“McCorvey, having revealed her real name in the 1980s, went on to clarify that she had not been raped as she had earlier claimed. She had said so only to get permission for an abortion and speed up her case.”
