Neveah Crain’s Family Blame Hospitals for Her Death, Not Texas Abortion Ban
Abortion activists have exploited the tragic death of Neveah Crain to attack the Texas abortion ban and falsely claim it is somehow responsible for her dying. But, in a new interview, Crain’s family blame the hospitals and say the Texas abortion ban was not responsible.
Crain died from sepsis after visiting two different hospital and not getting proper treatment. While abortion advocates falsely claim the Texas abortion ban prevented care, Crain’s family says the case is really just medical malpractice with doctors and medical facilities that should have provided more timely and thorough medical care.
Crain’s parents say Neveah died due to St. Elizabeth hospital’s gross medical negligence. Crain’s family says her death is being used for politics and they want the hospital to pay for its inaction.
As the pro-life group Secular Pro-Life has noted, Crain’s care was clearly shoddy.
“Nevaeh Crain presents to one ER and they treat her for strep throat without even investigating her pregnancy or abdominal pain. She goes to a second ER, they see she has symptoms of sepsis and isn’t responding to treatment, they discharge her anyway. When she returns for a third time clearly septic they are apparently in no hurry to treat her,” it explained.

Now, Crain’s parents make it clear they agree:
The family of the Vidor teen blames the death of their daughter and her unborn baby on what they call “medical negligence” on the part of two Southeast Texas hospitals.
Nevaeh Crain’s parents say she visited both CHRISTUS Saint Elizabeth and Baptist Hospitals for help with her pregnancy in the 24 hours before her death. A year later, there’s still no one to answer for the loss of their daughter and unborn granddaughter. They’re pro-life, and Nevaeh was too…
“I want them to pay for what they did to my daughter. I feel like they murdered my daughter and they just got away with it,” said Fails. “Murdered my daughter and my grand baby and just got away with it.”
Her Mother and Step-father, Robert and Candace Fails are apparently not happy that abortion advocates have exploited their daughter’s death to push their agenda.
However, the family says Nevaeh’s death is being used for politics when they say hospitals are to blame.
“I want them to be going after Baptist and Saint Elizabeth because they’re to blame for her death,” said Fails.
The way I see it, regardless of the law if a mother is crying for help, hurting and in pain, it is a doctor’s job to do everything possible to save them.
Sadly, Nevaeh Crain, Josseli Barnica, and their babies are victims of medical malpractice aggravated by inaccurate and politically-motivated media reporting.
ProPublica published two articles stating the young mothers died “under Texas’ abortion ban.” Every American who grieves these deaths should ask why journalists continue to lead doctors to believe they cannot treat women in medical emergencies.
Texas Right to Life says the law is clear that any pregnant woman can be properly treated within the confines of the abortion ban.
Nevaeh Crain, her daughter, Lillian, and Josseli Barnica should not have died. The media has put pregnant women and their preborn children needlessly at risk by misrepresenting the law, in spite of new guidelines from the Texas Medical Board.
Texas’ Pro-Life policies protect the mother as much as they protect the preborn baby. If the woman develops a serious condition, physicians don’t have to check for a heartbeat under state law; they don’t have to check the child’s age; they simply must intervene to save the mother, which often occurs by delivering the baby via C-section or induction.
Doctors should have done everything they could to save Josseli, Nevaeh, and their children. These tragedies arise when medical professionals believe corrupt coverage instead of following the law to treat pregnant women in emergencies.
Americans should have sympathy for the Crain and Barnica families, and should be rightly outraged at media outlets that would rather advance an agenda even at the expense of women and babies.
