Indiana doctor faces discipline hearing for performing abortion on 10-year-old Ohio girl.

TL;DR Summary
An Indiana doctor, Dr. Caitlin Bernard, faces a disciplinary hearing after speaking publicly about providing an abortion to a 10-year-old rape victim from Ohio. The state's attorney general accused her of violating state law by not reporting the child abuse to Indiana authorities and breaking federal patient privacy laws by telling a newspaper reporter about the girl's treatment. Bernard and her attorneys maintain that she followed Indiana's child abuse reporting requirements and didn't release any identifying information about the girl that would break privacy laws. The Indiana Medical Licensing Board could vote to impose penalties after hearing testimony.
