Thank you for proposing commonsense and humane regulations for pregnant inmates. These are still subject to abuse given that there is some degree of officer discretion (though with oversight) on what constitutes a "flight risk."  The training of officers in the implementation of these guidelines may impact their assessment of risk.

In my experience representing inmates, very few attempt flight, and those I am aware of have been mainly male inmates. Certainly it is hardly likely that female inmates in labor would attempt flight, or get very far if they did.
