(Thomas More Society) — Attorneys from the Thomas More Society have filed the first-ever wrongful-death lawsuit brought by a father of an unborn child that was killed in an illegal abortion. The plaintiff, Marcus Silva, is suing three women — Jackie Noyola, Amy Symmank Carpenter, and Aracely Garcia — who assisted his then-wife’s unlawful abortion by providing her with illegally obtained abortion pills and conspiring with her to conceal the pregnancy and the abortion from her husband. Silva will also sue the manufacturer of the mifepristone that was used in the abortion once the manufacturer is identified in discovery. The lawsuit was filed in Galveston County District Court on March 9, 2023.
“Abortion harms not only the unborn children who are killed, but also the fathers who have had their fatherhood stolen from them,” Peter Breen, Executive Vice President and Head of Litigation at the Thomas More Society. “We commend Mr. Silva for stepping forward, and we will help any father who seeks justice on behalf of his unborn child who is killed in an unlawful abortion.”
