    For the record, if we treat this more like a safety deposit box; the couple are the victims here.

    It should probably be treated that way.

    Their argument is because those embryos had potential to be human… they should be treated as human.

    I don’t buy it, and it’s certainly not something that should establish the precedent that embryos=babies.

      So sue for property damage. Harvesting embryos is an expensive and painful process. Hell you could even sue for pain and suffering.

      But wrongful death is just ridiculous.
