This session, presented by NACDL, introduces the concept of pregnancy criminalization through a legal epidemiology lens, examining how criminal exposure is often produced not by intentional wrongdoing but through routine medical practice. They will explore how clinical documentation, hospital protocols, mandated reporting regimes, and interactions with law enforcement generate criminal investigations and prosecutions.
