Junette Barnes, a 27-year-old mother of four, had a tubal ligation on June 16, 1988.
One week after this operation, she found out that she had been pregnant at the time of the surgery, and was still pregnant. She saw her family physician, Dr. Ted Shields on July 8, 1988, and he performed an abortion on her at Surgicare Outpatient Center in Victoria, Texas, that day.
Surgicare was a general-purpose outpatient surgical center rather than a dedicated abortion clinic.
During the abortion, he perforated her uterus and cut an artery and several veins. Junette was transferred to a hospital, where she died of blood loss during emergency surgery.
