Twenty-four-year-old
Maura Morales was eight weeks pregnant when she went to Woman's Care Center for an abortion on May 8, 1981. When she was in the recovery room, her heart went into spontaneous ventricular fibrillation -- irregular heartbeats not capable of effectively pumping blood. Maura was taken to a hospital, but died that day.
Maura was the fourth woman to die at the same facility. The others were
Shirley Payne,
Myrta Baptiste, and
Ruth Montero.
