Taylor Killed A Woman To Get A Baby

What was this woman thinking? Well, we have some video and an interview to attempt to find out.

I had the day off on Monday, so I read this lengthy article about the seven women on Texas death row and their new-ish relationship with an order of nuns. It is very long, as I just said, but it’s good — and it brings up a lot of questions about the role of women in society, how we view women, compassion overall, what “justice” even means, and the odd similarities between giving your life to faith and giving your life to the state because you did something bad. If you find the complexities of life interesting, I would definitely go ahead and read that.

Well, the most recent “inductee” into death row in Texas on the female side is Taylor Parker, who I believe is sometimes called “Taylor Morton." The basics of this case are pretty bad, so I will outline them briefly. Taylor had two kids, I believe by two different guys, who were 10 and 5 in October 2020. She had a hysterectomy, so she couldn’t have more kids. And yet, on Facebook and Instagram, she was there and pregnant and posting updates about ultrasounds and check-ins. She even, I believe, threw herself a baby shower. A modern miracle!

Thing is, she wasn’t pregnant, so she went and killed an acquaintance of hers named Regan (also spelled “Reagan”) on October 9, 2020. She killed her in Bowie County, which is in Northeast Texas, and then was stopped by a state officer, I think. She had the baby in the car (Reagan’s baby) and was covered in blood. She asked to be sent to a hospital in Idabel, Oklahoma. When she got there, with the baby, the doctors and nurses immediately realized that her HGH levels and, frankly, her feminine parts were not indicating she recently had a child. So, they called the authorities.

I thought this sounded familiar, and then I remembered that there is body-cam of the hospital situation for this case:
