If she is one of the less than 1% of rape victims who gets pregnant, then yeah, provided that the rape has been documented as a crime by the authorities, not just alleged after the fact.
And I'd charge the apprehended rapist with a count of at least 2nd degree homicide - since the death came out of his violent act toward the female and her resulting pregnancy.
There is still a life being taken. The issue is who's responsible.
Now, you can clearly see that my attempt at a hypothetical solution to your hypothetical (but plausible) crime does not mean that we would extend permission to get an abortion to anyone who, after getting pregnant, just doesn't want to have a baby. 99% of all abortions would be eliminated.
