The woman, 22, became pregnant before entering prison in February, and, according to her mother, sought an abortion because she had become pregnant by forced sex. In it, the state agreed to provide transportation for the woman to the Lincoln Planned Parenthood clinic. Roe's family agreed to pay all medical costs directly to Planned Parenthood. The state, in the settlement agreement, said its compromise did not mean it agreed with the woman's legal arguments. State health care rules for inmates bar the use of state funds to facilitate an abortion.
