Pregnant woman wrongly charged with robbery over facial recognition

A woman who was eight months pregnant became the latest person to be falsely charged after police to arrest her on suspicion of carjacking and robbery.

Porcha Woodruff, 32, was shocked when six police officers showed up at her Detroit-area home as she was getting her two children ready for school on February 16.

Woodruff, who was a month away from giving birth, thought the cops were playing a prank when they showed her a warrant for robbery and carjacking - given that she was visibly pregnant at the time - but they put in her handcuffs.
