“Alicia Beltran said she was 12 weeks pregnant when she visited a health clinic July 2 near her home in Jackson, Wisc., for a checkup. The expectant mother was then asked to take a drug test, which she said turned up negative for all substances except for Suboxone. Beltran was arrested and taken in handcuffs to a hospital, where she was examined by a physician. Her lawyers said the pregnancy was determined to be normal and healthy, but she was taken to jail and ordered by a judge to spend 90 days in a drug treatment center. The judge told Belran that she would not have an attorney present but one had been appointed to represent her fetus.”
