A woman who was jailed following an abortion in Starr County held a news conference with her legal team Tuesday morning.

The news conference comes after a lawsuit was filed in federal court against Starr County and its district attorney’s office.

Lizelle Gonzalez, known at the time of her arrest as Lizelle Herrera, was arrested in April 2022 on a charge of murder after authorities claimed she caused the death of a child by “self-induced abortion.”
