El Salvador Releases 1 of "Las 17" women from Jail.

The Salvadoran government has officially released a second member of "Las 17" — 17 Salvadoran women who are in jail for homicide after having a miscarriage or other obstetric complications — but are refusing to pardon the 15 remaining women.
Last month, the Salvadoran Congress approved a pardon for a woman known as Guadalupe.
El Salvador is one of several Central and South American countries that have criminalized abortion in all cases, even when the woman's health is at risk.
