Mother Pleads Guilty To Giving Daughter Abortion Pills, Burning and Burying Dead Baby

Station Gossip: A Nebraska mother has pleaded guilty to illegally giving her 17-year-old daughter abortion pills and helping her burn and bury the baby’s body.

Jessica Burgess, 42, of Norfolk, Nebraska, pled guilty to three felonies in a plea agreement with Madison County District Attorney Joe Smith. She admitted to providing an abortion after 20 weeks gestation, lying to police, and tampering with human remains.

As part of the plea deal, Smith dropped charges against Jessica for concealing the death of another person and providing an abortion by someone other than a physician. With the three remaining felonies, she could face up to five years in prison and $21,000 in fines. 

Burgess helped her daughter, Celeste Burgess, order abortion pills on the internet in April 2022 when she was 23 weeks pregnant, in violation of Nebraska’s 20 week abortion ban. After taking the pills, the daughter gave birth to the aborted baby in the shower and put the body in a bag and a box, according to the Associated Press. MORE

    The left not only views her as a victim but will gleefully grant her the “Joe Biden parent of the year” award for really really loving her daughter and being there for her in her time of need. They will say, “We need more mothers just like this one”.

  3. And all she had to do was put the kid up for adoption and get on with your life, see, there’s always a way out. People choose to make it harder on themselves, and look what they have to live with now.
