She had a bloody nose, a swollen lip, scratches on her face, and a red mark on her neck. She told police Streeter punched her in the stomach and tried to choke her&#8230; and then kneed her in the stomach, telling her he hoped it would cause her preborn child to die. The woman was 27 weeks pregnant at the time.<\/p>\n<p>The woman said she had not felt the baby move since the assault and was taken to the hospital for treatment; local news did not say whether or not her baby survived.<\/p>\n<p><strong>REPORT: <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/abortion-rising-number-pregnant-homicide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Abortion is not the answer to rising numbers of pregnant women dying by homicide\u00a0<\/em><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This was Streeter&#8217;s second arrest for family violence in less than a year; he was placed on a mandatory 48-hour hold, with a $10,000 bond.<\/p>\n<p>In the previous incident, Streeter&#8217;s brother said he intervened when Streeter tried to shoot himself; Streeter then tackled him to the ground and punched him. When police arrived, he barricaded himself in his trailer and had to be talked into coming out by his mother. He&#8217;s since pled guilty to assault of a pregnant person, and was given a sentence of five years probation, as well as a $750 fine. The charges for the previous crime are still pending.<\/p>\n<p>Violence against pregnant women is, unfortunately, very common.
