At least the Laotians appreciate the value of life. I'm not sure if the United States, China, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia and other nations still steeped in blood-thirsty laws from the abyss of man's historical darkness have any such laws that exempt pregnant women from being executed.

Though the Laotian government can do more and abolish this stain on humanity called the "death penalty" in Laos, I praise them for recognizing the sanctity of the life of the unborn child.

RichyBlacK:

How did you arrive to the conclusion that she chose "to get pregnant in prison"? This is mere pedestrian speculation.

[size=18pt]Even if that was the case, how is that relevant? Should we apply "typical Naija" nonsensical reasoning:[/size]

Naija policeman: Oh she go get belle make we no kill am? She wan try us, she think say na she get sense pass abi. Foolish woman.
Naija female warder: What of the pikin? We no suppose kill am.
Naija policeman: Na me you dey ask? Abeg go ask God dat wan. No be me you go dey ask dat kin tin.
Naija female warder: But the law talk say . . .
Naija policeman: Sharrap there! How we even know say na pikin dey inside there? E fit be stone sef. I don see am before with my korokoro eyes for wan hospital for Palmgrove.
Naija female warder: Dis tin no good oh. How we go kill pregnant woman? The law no mention how she take get pregnant, abi?
Naija policeman: E be like say na you go arrange pesin way go give am belle inside prison. Take ya time o. Our boys don ready to pump bullet inside her belle.

Uselessness!

@AjaraEwuro,

Let us make the following assumptions:

Assumption 1: She deliberately got pregnant.
Assumption 2: There is evidence that she knowingly got pregnant to escape the death penalty.
Assumption 3: You're made the final arbiter on whether she lives or dies.

What would you recommend for her?

Thank you.

This lady got  pregnant in the prison. Why no one is talking about the randy prison warders and prisoners abuse.

A pregnant British woman accused of smuggling heroin in Laos has been sentenced to life in prison. Skip related content
, Samantha Orobator's trial was held behind closed doors, with British consular officials and Orobator's mother, Jane, present.
The 20-year-old, who is five-months pregnant, was arrested at Wattay airport in August 2008 as she was about to board a plane to Thailand. Police said she had 680 grams of heroin in her luggage.
Orobator wore blue prison fatigues and gave no comment as she was ushered out of the court by armed police in the Lao capital, Vientiane.
The South Londoner appeared distressed as police put her in a van to return to prison.
"The defendant was sentenced to life in prison," a diplomat said. "We are now seeking access to Samantha so we can discuss what we can do next."
She was initially scheduled to stand trial in early May but her case was put on hold while officials attempted to find out how she became pregnant inside the prison.
Orobator reportedly told authorities she impregnated herself using another prisoner's sperm in an apparent effort to escape the death penalty.
Although the amount of heroin Orobator was carrying exceeded the statutory minimum for the death penalty, under criminal law in Laos pregnant women cannot be executed.
Her mother confirmed that she had not been raped by prison officials or fellow prisoners.
Britain and Laos signed a prisoner transfer agreement on May 7 which could allow Orobator to serve most of her sentence at home.

It is not an assumption. She confessed that she used the sperm of a male inmate to get herself pregnat to avoid the death penalty. How she did that is left for her to explain. But she said noone raped her. She probably told one of the inmate to get her pregnant or even a warden.http://uk.news.yahoo.com/4/20090603/twl-drug-charge-briton-jailed-for-life-41f21e0.html
