Instead of proceeding with a scheduled jury selection, Bertha Pinedo Bugarin, 47, pleaded no contest yesterday to seven felony charges of committing abortions without a medical license. She was ordered to pay restitution of $7,800 to 16 of her victims. –
Operation Rescue reports Nine additional counts are to be dismissed, according to her plea
bargin agreement, when she is sentenced in January. She faces up to 10
years in jail.
Bugarin’s sister, Raquel, was also charged, but earlier took a plea
bargin that would have made her testify against her sister if a trail
would have proceeded.
