What would your charge a person with that, drugged you and stole a kidney?

Negligence causing bodily harm to the women hardly encompasses the horror of killing her baby. If you have ever known someone that went thorugh a simple miscarriage I think that would be clear.

Drugging and stealing a kidney is assault and battery, and they'd probably get creative and through in a lot of aggregating factors (intent to murder, etc.). But a kidney is more valuable than a parasite (no crime in killing someone's tapeworm) and not in the same class as a life, so it's not analagous.
