Why was the detention of teodora considered cruel and humiliating?

The detention of Teodora was considered cruel and humiliating because she was imprisoned after suffering a stillbirth, which was mischaracterized as an abortion. She was charged with aggravated homicide in El Salvador, a country with strict anti-abortion laws, despite her obvious distress and lack of intent to end her pregnancy. Teodora's case drew international attention to the harsh consequences of such laws on women's rights and access to healthcare.
