This woman pled guilty she didn't go to trial. Pretty sure she was advised that proceeding to trial and pleading 'undue burden' for having to drive 70 miles or something similar was a longshot. Especially when she'd undoubtedly have to explain why she had no Obamacare or DPW benefits.

And you're right I don't have any inside info on the car etc. but you don't have any inside info on friends, family, neighbors etc. who could have arranged a ride.

What I do know is had the mother/daughter inquired with PP of Harrisburg they would have read

If you need emergency contraception (morning after pill), you can walk in any time the health center is open. - See more at: http://www.plannedparenthood.org/hea....qBOfeI7D.dpuf

Not such a burden when you really think about it.
