Pregnant Woman Stabbed and Beaten Gives Birth

1 Thessalonians 5:2-6 KJV “…the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness. Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.”

Rachel Poole, the Texas woman who was beaten and stabbed while on a FaceTime video chat with her soldier husband who was in Afghanistan, has given birth to a healthy baby girl.

Isabella Poole was born via caesarean section at University Medical Center in El Paso.

31-year-old Rachel Poole was attacked in her home Wednesday night while chatting with her deployed husband. The assailant, Cory Moss, stabbed Rachel with a knife and then beat her severely. She suffered stab wounds, a collapsed lung, dislocated vertebrae and broken bones in her eye socket from the brutal attack. She is unable to see out of one of her eyes.

Moss reportedly owed the Poole’s money for car repairs because he had borrowed one of their cars and wrecked it.

Justin Poole was able to reach Moss’ co-workers at Fort Bliss who captured and held him until police arrived on base. Moss is facing charges of criminal attempted capital murder.

Rachel Poole remains in critical condition at University Medical Center. Her family would not release her prognosis to the press.
