 The graphic image Romalis saw in-person was something abortion advocates knew would help sway public opinion, and policy, in their favour. In 1964, an American woman, Gerri Twerdy Santoro, was found dead as a result of a self-induced illegal abortion. She was only 28 years old and had two other children. Fearing her abusive estranged husband would kill her if he discovered she was pregnant by another man, she and her boyfriend aborted their pre-born child. In the process, she herself died and was found lying face down in a pool of blood. The photograph of this horrific site first appeared in MS Magazine in April 1973.(("Gerry Twerdy Santoro," lifeandlibertyforwomen.org/gerri_twerdy_santoro.html.)) It has since been used by the pro-abortion movement as a tool to make their case for why abortion should remain legal. {{ :utsfl:classroom:seminars:abortion_victim_woman.jpg?200|}} The graphic image Romalis saw in-person was something abortion advocates knew would help sway public opinion, and policy, in their favour.

 The Texas Department of Transportation uses the story and image of a woman named Jacqueline Saburido to convey the dangers of drinking and driving. In 1999, a drunk driver collided with the vehicle she was in. A fire broke out when Jacqueline was pinned in the front seat of the car. She was inflicted with burns on over 60% of her body. She lost her hair, ears, nose, left eyelid, much of her vision, and her fingers had to be amputated.(("Jacqui’s Story," available from texasdwi.org/jacqui.html, viewed online February 8, 2007.)) Her story is a disturbing one, but it conveys an important lesson: some people’s "choices" have a devastating effect on other people’s lives.  The Texas Department of Transportation uses the story and image of a woman named Jacqueline Saburido to convey the dangers of drinking and driving.
