Establishes the crime of feticide

S 5576 creates a new criminal offense called "feticide," defined as intentionally causing the death of an unborn child at any stage of pregnancy through pregnancy termination. This act would be classified as a class A felony - the most serious criminal charge - unless the termination followed specific provisions in public health law. The bill directly affects individuals who intentionally end a pregnancy resulting in the unborn child's death, excluding cases permitted under existing public health law. It does not change abortion access but establishes a new felony for intentional killing of an unborn child.
