The debate over the use of midwives and alternative birth methods is explored when a midwife is called to assist in a difficult birth, when the baby is rushed to a hospital and dies (at the same hospital who turned away a Medicaid mother in labor and that baby died en route to a county hospital), the midwife is prosecuted for murder, and Quincy is brought in to perform an autopsy on the baby the midwife delivered to determine if she truly is responsible for the death.
Spoilers ahead. Coverage follows the scope labeled below.
