Lizelle Herrera, 26, was arrested Thursday after she 'intentionally and knowingly caused the death of an individual by self-induced abortion,' police said.

It is unclear how far along Herrera was in her pregnancy, but Texas has banned all abortions after the first detection of an embryonic 'heartbeat,' which can be detected as early as six weeks into a pregnancy.

Herrera is currently being held at the Starr County Jail on a $500,000 bond while authorities investigate, KVEO reported.

The Starr County Sheriff's Office did not immediately respond to DailyMail.com's request for comment.

The Texas Heartbeat Act bans abortions after a fetal heartbeat is detected, with no exceptions for rape or incest.

The law's unusual enforcement measures were meant to insulate it from legal challenges - anyone can bring forth a case against anyone who aids a woman in getting an abortion, other than the woman herself. Such a plaintiff could be entitled to up to $10,000.

I’m sure she thinks this is going to be her Rosa Parks moment.

This is a set up like the Monkey Trial. Brown v Board of Education was also carefully set up. They found a location (Topeka) where the black schools and white schools were actually equal so that they could test the separate part. Good and proper result but orchestrated.
