	Indiana State Senate Overrides Governor's Veto of Feticide Law (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		INDIANAPOLIS-- A pro-life bill to increase the criminal penalties for the crime of feticide became state law Thursday when the Senate overwhelmingly voted to override pro-abortion Gov. Frank O'Bannon's veto last spring of a 1997 bill to allow individuals who intentionally kill a viable fetus during a crime to be charged with murder.
		What shocked Buck at the time was that under Indiana law, the unborn baby's killer could not be charged with murder because an unborn child is not legally considered a person until birth.
		While it was not mentioned on the Indiana Senate floor, Thursday marked 25 years since the U.S. Supreme Court's Roe vs. Wade decision that made abortion legal on demand through all nine months of pregnancy.
