The BBC has released a secretly obtained leaked recording which exposes serious concerns over the arrest of Nicola Packer. A woman was arrested for taking abortion pills at 26 weeks pregnant after mistakenly believing she was just six weeks pregnant after incorrectly tracking her period. 

The arrest occurred one day after Packer delivered a stillborn baby at home, she was taken into custody while bleeding and recovering after major surgery. A senior midwife at London's Chelsea and Westminster Hospital initially contacted police to report Packer.
