A West Virginia man who was convicted in the rape of an 11-year-old girl who was forced to abort her unborn baby will be released on probation this fall, according to court documents.

WCHS Eyewitness News reports a Cabell County judge issued a jail release order to Michael J. Adkins, 38, of Ona, on Tuesday. Adkins will serve probation and be confined to his home, according to the report.

Adkins initially was arrested in 2014 on rape charges after authorities said he abused and impregnated his 11-year-old daughter and then forced her to have an abortion; the girl’s stepmother, Amanda Rea Adkins, also was arrested on charges of child neglect.

Authorities said the sexual assaults on the girl took place between October 2010 and February 2011. According to court documents, Adkins took the girl for an abortion on March 16, 2011, after he found out that she was pregnant.

As WSAZ and other local news reports indicated, the abortion facility in Charleston that did the abortion did not report the statutory rape to authorities.

Initially, Adkins received a five- to 15-year prison sentence, but Cabell Circuit Judge Paul T. Farrell suspended the sentence and placed him on probation. However, Farrell later reversed his decision and reinstated the prison sentence after Adkins was accused of domestic violence while on probation.

The pro-life movement has repeatedly documented how abortion facilities fail to report cases of statutory rape and predators using abortions to cover up their crimes.

Abuse often is connected to pregnancy and abortion.Some women and girls are forced or coerced into aborting their unborn babies, while others are abused or killed because they want to protect their babies’ lives.

Forced and coerced abortions frequently are tied to abusive relationships, and, as horrific as they are, they are not uncommon. As LifeNews previously reported, one study found that as many as 64% of post-abortive women say they felt pressure to have an abortion.

LifeNews has been keeping track of stories involving allegations of forced and coerced abortions, as well as abuse connected with women who refuse to abort their unborn babies. They include:
