Supreme Court legalizes abortion. In a historic decision, the U.S. Supreme Court rules in Roe v. Wade that women, as part of their constitutional right to privacy, can terminate a pregnancy during its first two trimesters.
The court looked at the principal of privacy and the fourteenth amendment and did not extend the rights to an unborn fetus. The court in Roe V. Wade turned to medical evidence this evidence led them to a three-tiered approach. In this approach they separated a pregnancy into three trimesters. The first trimester is when most abortions occur. In fact, in the first trimester is when ninety percent of the abortions occur.
