Actually, after the second trimester in California, she couldn't have aborted the child without facing criminal penalties as well. She would have had to attempt to deliver the child.

No, that is not true. The Supreme Court cases of Roe, Bolton, and Carhart assure that a woman can abort her child at anytime up until the baby has 100% cleared the woman's body. Bolton held that a woman can abort even for emotional reasons and the decision is wholly between the woman and her doctor, and Carhart extends that to PBAs.

Could you provide a link to the California law which you believe outlaws abortion after the 2nd trimester? Thanks.
