I was trying to figure out how a frozen embryo could be a criminal... The one thing that came to mind is if it didn't develop when implanted, would it be suicide? For this specific case, could the estate of the destroyed embryos be sued for damages? (a patient handled a chilled container of embryos, causing frostbite to the patient. Is that similar to a driver being in an accident, in that a person was encapsulated in another entity which caused damage). I can't believe we're having to have these kinds of discussions in 2024.
