Jae Lowder checked into Alta View Hospital expecting to have a baby, but soon she was caught in a violent hostage crisis. She remembers hearing her baby crying…then gunshots…then silence.

Worthington erroneously claimed the doctor performed the procedure without his wife's knowledge or consent while she was sleeping.
