No, its not even born yet. With the proper care, both of her legs could survive outside of her body. Does that mean that he should be responsible for 4 murders?
There are states that allow 3rd trimester abortions.

If the killer knew without a doubt that the woman was pregnant then they should be charged with the unborn child's death.
even if the mother was only a week pregnant?
edit: I know in this case she wasn't, I'm just saying in general :o
I believe that a court of law would argue otherwise as the embryo is not even remotely viable at just one week.
Killing, yes. The important question is what is being killed, because it's certainly not a human being at that point.
Nope, its a bunch of cells that may turn into one. OMG FLY JUST KILLED SOME CELLS ON MY FACE
I heard an interview with a priest once in which he was asked when he thought human life began. His answer was interesting. Apparently before a certain point in pregnancy you can take the embryo (or whatever it's called at that point) and pull it apart, chop it up, etc, and not actually destroy it. You just end up with more embryos. His theory was that human life began once the embryo could no longer take such rough treatment-- presumably because a soul had taken root at that point.
I don't know that I buy that, but he at least did some research and think it through in a way which was consistent with his belief as opposed to a knee-jerk response.
