Fatal Mistake
48 HOURS explores the issue of young women who conceive children and hide their pregnancies. They secretly give birth and then abandon the baby, some claiming that their babies were born dead. Includes interviews from a professor, attorney, psychiatrist, psychologist and expert witnesses for the prosecution in neonatal cases. Also included is a profile of Debbe Magnusen, a California woman who runs Project Cuddle, an organization set up to help arrange adoptions for young women with unwanted pregnancies.
