September 18, 1979: Filipino Woman Dies in Chicago

 "Sabina Gago" was a 28-year-old Filipino woman working as a nurse in Chicago. 

On September 18, 1979 she died of septic shock from an induced abortion while an inpatient at Columbus Hospital. 

Though there was an autopsy performed, no apparent effort had been made to determine where the abortion had been done. This indicates that there was nothing that would lead anybody at the hospital or medical examiner's office to raise suspicions of an illegal abortion or a particularly appalling abortion facility.
