'Pro-Choice' Teens Sentenced to Life for Murdering Unborn Baby

CINCINNATI -- A judge sentenced two teens to life in prison for a beating that injured a pregnant woman and killed her unborn child. Alfonso Price, 16, and Jebrell Wright, 17, will be eligible for parole in 23 years for their convictions on murder, felonious assault and kidnapping charges in the July 2007 attack. Authorities said the pair attacked 18-year-old Kerria Anderson, who told Price she was pregnant at the time with his unborn child. The teens stomped Anderson in the hallway of an Over-The-Rhine apartment building after she refused to get an abortion, investigators said.

CINCINNATI -- Two teens were convicted of murder Monday in the death of a fetus by kicking, beating and stomping on its mother, who was the girlfriend and cousin of one of the boys. The Hamilton County Common Pleas jury also found Alfonso Price, 16, and Jebrell Wright, 17, guilty of kidnapping and felonious assault for the July 11 beating in an apartment. During closing arguments earlier Monday, Prosecutor Rick Gibson said the boys had planned to beat 18-year-old Kerria Anderson until she miscarried the seven-month-old fetus. She told Price he had fathered the baby, he asked her to abort the pregnancy because he had recently discovered they were cousins, and she refused, Gibson said.
