"Jones said she was incensed by what she views as hypocrisy by Zahra, since she believes the termination of her pregnancy ultimately helped him build a successful law career, and that his vote was an attempt to deny others a similar choice."

..."He would drive her twice to the clinic, she said: once for a test confirming her pregnancy and once for the abortion. Zahra did not join her for the procedure, she said, because he was not allowed in the room. He wanted to accompany her, she said.
“I never disagreed with it, I didn’t feel like he was strong-arming me,” Jones recalled. “I do remember talking during the procedure, saying, ‘You know, we just need to finish school, we’re not ready to have a family, we need to finish school.’”
She was in a state of conscious sedation at the time, speaking to the medical professionals in the room, she recalled.
Jones said she felt “relieved” when it was over, despite the stronger emotions that swept over her when she sat next to Zahra in the car afterward. He snapped at her while she cried, then drove her to Arby’s, she said.
“And then we never really talked about it again,” Jones said. “We didn’t discuss it at all. It was done.”
