The Supreme Court has ended constitutional protections for abortion that had been in place for nearly 50 years in a decision by its conservative majority to overturn Roe v. Wade on Friday, June 24th. The overturn and the law to outlaw abortions in Arkansas was confirmed to be passed in the state by Arkansas Attorney General Leslie Rutledge Friday evening.
Jefferson County Sheriff Lafayette Woods Jr. joined the Oldies 1013 morning show and was asked how the ban would be investigated locally.
Woods went on to elaborate on the topic and give his personal opinion of the overturn.
In closing, Woods further elaborated on if previous court rulings would need to be revisited to now enforce the new law.
