A Texas man accused of putting abortion pills in his partners drink has countersued for 100 million, claiming she made the whole thing up. Last month, Autonomy News reported on a lawsuit filed by Liana Davis, a Texas woman who alleged that Christopher Cooprider, a 34-year-old Marine pilot, had given her abortion-inducing medication without her knowledge or consent, causing her to lose her pregnancy.
On Wednesday, Cooprider countersued Davis in the same federal court in Corpus Christi, Texas, alleging that Davis suit was malicious and intended to cause him emotional distress. When covering the initial complaint, Autonomy News did not name either party, but is doing so now because Cooprider alleges the suit was fraudulent and initiated for retribution and political purposes.
