As usual, the Cook County Sheriff feels he is above the law and above morality. Therefore a class action suit has been filed on behalf of women shackled during childbirth.
Personally I think it is obscene and cruel and unusual punishment to separate women form their children during the first crucial two years of their lives. Most civilized countries allow women to keep their babies with them for two years in jail or prison so that bonding is not interrupted.
Apparently America is still uncivilized.
