According
to information gathered by Operation Rescue from those on the scene

Wilson was in the later stages of pregnancy, and because of that was
turned down by abortion clinics in Columbus and Akron.
She
was said to have been brain dead at the time she arrived at the
hospital, but was kept on life support for several days so that her
organs could be harvested.
"We
wish to express our deepest sympathies to Lakisha's family for their
devastating loss," said Troy Newman, President of Operation Rescue.
"We have filed complaints with the Ohio Medical Board and with the Ohio
Department of Health. We call on the ODH to immediately suspend
Preterm's clinic license pending a full investigation into Lakisha's
death."
