"Under Ohio law, the little girl would not have been denied emergency medical services," conservative podcaster Tim Pool said in an episode of his podcast To back his claim, Pool cited a statement from Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost that Pool said broke down "what the law actually said." Pool suggested, without evidence, that the girl was taken to Indiana for the procedure "for political gain," instead of trying to have it done in Ohio.
