No Charges Filed Against Doc Who Killed Woman in Botched Abortion
While abortion practitioner Kermit Gosnell was found guilty of involuntary manslaughter in the death of patient Karnamaya Mongar, who died after a botched abortion, another abortionist who killed a patient will face no charges.
The official death certificate for Jennifer Morbelli confirms the young woman died on February 7, 2013, from complications to a 33-week abortion done by late-term abortion practitioner LeRoy Carhart. But the Maryland county police closed their investigation Monday without filing criminal charges. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 05/14/no-charges-filed- against-doc-who-killed-woman- in-botched-abortion/

AS CNS News first
uncovered, according to NBC 10 reporter Jacqueline London, And to

In a new expose video, a former abortion clinic worker describes the grisly details of working for one abortion practitioner who shows the atrocities at the Kermit Gosnell abortion clinic were not an exception.
During the interview the former abortion clinic employee says: the fetus would come completely out and of course, the fetus would still be alive and the abortion clinic employee added Im talking about the whole floor dirty. Im talking about me drenched in blood. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
ABC News Ended Blackout of Kermit Gosnell Trial After 56 Days
Fifty six days after the grisly trial of abortionist Kermit Gosnell began, ABC broke its self-imposed blackout and finally offered coverage.
World News anchor Diane Sawyer belatedly told viewers that Gosnell was convicted on three counts of first degree murder against newborn babies, as well as on a slew of other charges. Terry Moran explained, For two months, jurors heard often shocking, grisly testimony. He described the details as a house of horrors. A house of horrors that ABC took 56 days to notice. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 05/14/abc-news-ended-blackout- of-kermit-gosnell-trial-after- 56-days/
Gosnell Faces Life in Prison, Federal Trial in September
Now that illegal late-term abortionist Kermit Gosnell has been convicted of three counts of First Degree Murder, one count of Involuntary Manslaughter, and a host of other charges related to his House of Horrors abortion operation, the case now moves into the penalty phase.

NARAL, Planned Parenthood Blame Pro-Lifers for Gosnell Horrors,
Again
On one hand, the responses of Planned Parenthood and the National Abortion Rights Action League (NARAL) have not surprised me. Because they are advocacy groups, I expected them to defend abortion even as they applauded the verdicts.
On one hand, the responses of Planned Parenthood and the National Abortion Rights Action League (NARAL) have not surprised me. Because they are advocacy groups, I expected them to defend abortion even as they applauded the verdicts.
On the other hand,
I wondered if perhaps they would seek some common ground. Surely, everyone
should be able to agree that killing babies after they are born should be
condemned. In addition, it seems that all concerned should welcome strict
enforcement of laws regulating abortion as a means of finding and stopping
any future Gosnell-like clinics. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 05/14/naral-planned- parenthood-blame-pro-lifers- for-gosnell-horrors-again/
Ask
Obama About Gosnell, Now That Hes Been Convicted of Murder

head of the House of Horrors abortion clinic was on trial. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 05/14/ask-obama-about-gosnell- now-that-hes-been-convicted- of-murder/

Abby Johnson: I Am No Better Than Kermit Gosnell, Pray for Him
I am vehemently against the death penalty. Now stay with me this is not a post about my opinion regarding that. You can disagree or agree with me on that some other time. I did want to share a little bit about why I take the words of prolifers so seriously. I have heard so much vitriol spewed from the mouths of Christian prolifers since the Gosnell trial has concluded. I feel like I must address it. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
Abortion
Survivor: Gosnell Verdict Shows My Life Matters, Im No Myth
This idea of an infant being born alive in the process of a botched abortion and people not making efforts to resuscitate I think thats a myth they like to propagate. Its just not something that really happens. So said Jessica Arons, an abortion advocate at the Center for American Progress, in Sundays CNN piece on Kermit Gosnell. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 05/14/abortion-survivor- gosnell-verdict-shows-my-life- matters-im-no-myth/

Dozens

Politician:
Kill Disabled Children Like We Kill Deformed Lambs
You might recall that British politician, Colin Brewer, who last year said that disabled children should be killed to save taxpayer money. You might recall that at the time he apologized and stepped down in disgrace. But you probably didnt know that he was re-elected to his old seat this year. And hes at it again. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 05/14/politician-kill- disabled-children-like-we- kill-deformed-lambs/
