They couldn't bring her to a hospital for the delivery? Maybe postpone her sentence for the sake of the child. Do anything humane?

I could see maybe if she was a murderer and a flight risk but it's also possible she's doing time for something stupid like being black on a Friday. Which is why I ask, what's the story with mom?

Even in medieval times you could plead the belly to avoid being incarcerated.
