Abortion Doctor Charged With Murder

PHILADELPHIA—An abortion doctor who catered to minorities, immigrants and poor women was charged with eight counts of murder in the deaths of a patient and seven babies who were born alive and then killed with scissors, prosecutors said Wednesday.

Dr. Kermit Gosnell, 69, made millions of dollars over 30 years, performing as many illegal, late-term abortions as he could, prosecutors said. State regulators ignored complaints about him and failed to visit or inspect his clinic since 1993, but no charges were warranted against them, District Attorney Seth Williams said.

Dr. Gosnell "induced labor, forced the live birth of viable babies in the sixth, seventh, eighth month of pregnancy and then killed those babies by cutting into the back of the neck with scissors and severing their spinal cord," Mr. Williams said.

Mr. Williams said patients were subjected to squalid and barbaric conditions at Dr. Gosnell's Women's Medical Society.

Authorities went to investigate drug-related complaints at the clinic last year and stumbled on what Mr. Williams called a "house of horrors."

"There were bags and bottles holding aborted fetuses were scattered throughout the building," Mr. Williams said. "There were jars, lining shelves, with severed feet that he kept for no medical purpose."

The clinic was shut down and Dr. Gosnell's medical license was suspended after the raid.

Workers, some of whom were also charged with murder, were untrained and unlicensed, including a high-school student who performed anesthesia with potentially lethal narcotics, Mr. Williams said.

Dr. Gosnell and nine other employees are in custody, authorities said.

Dr. Gosnell has been named in at least 10 malpractice suits, including one over the death of a woman who died of sepsis and a perforated uterus.

Conservative spin: "ALL abortions are muder."

Liberal spin: "Scissor Control legislation."

that's just sickening. God will get that fucker. (just my opinion)

Gosnell has been named in at least 10 malpractice suits, but Williams said state regulators ignored complaints about his clinic and that the office hadn't been inspected since 1993.

Patients endured barbaric procedures at the hands of the twisted doctor, officials charged.

Police stumbled into the grisly scene at Gosnell's clinic last year after responding to a drug-related complaint.

His medical license was then suspended and the clinic shut down.

For those that believe in pro-choice, late term abortion is all part of the package. Not necessarily from this monster, but it is legal in some states and our President is all for it.
This fucker needs to have a pair of scissors plunged in the back of his head and his spinal cord severed.

Bull fucking shit. I'm pro-choice but I would be 100% in favor of banning late term abortions. I'm not sure exactly where the line should be drawn (2, 2 ¹⁄₂ months?) but I absolutely think there should be a line.

There's not enough punishment in the world for that sick bastard. Fuck!

It's not "Bull fucking shit" it's a fucking fact. The fact that you don't agree with late term abortion is irrelevant. I'm not getting into an huge fucking abortion is right or wrong debate. I stated a fact and there's no arguing the ugly truth that goes with it. I believe that most states only allow abortions till the end of the 1^st trimester.
I can't think of one single reason for anyone to have a late term abortion. If you carry it for that long, why not give birth and give it up for adoption?

Why weren't the mothers charged with murder, too? They drove to the clinics pregnant and left their murdered babies behind. He didn't abduct them, they paid him to kill the babies. Fucking people are animals.

I think every state allows abortions untill the 2^nd trimester. The 16 week mark is when they test for down syndrome and chromosomal abnormalities and a woman has up untill 24 weeks to have an abortion if there are any birth defects. I was under the impression that anything after that was illegal in every state.

Besides for that, how in the fuck did this lunatic get away without having his clinic inspected since 1993? I think the state regulators should also be charged.

No, it's not a fact and what I said is entirely relevant. You said that late term abortion is part of the package if you're pro-choice and I'm saying it isn't. I don't know the numbers (and I'm too lazy right now to look it up ) but I do know that many people who are pro-choice would be happy to see a ban on late term abortion. It's an awful, barbaric procedure.

I never said I didn't agree with you...all I said was that it's a fact that LTA do happen. Do you think the doc in question is the only monster out there doing these kind of abortions? There are plenty of greedy bastards out there trying to make a buck off the poor people who can't get decent medical attention. If this guy hasn't been checked out since 1992 or 3, how many others are doing the same thing?
I'm not sure if any states allow LTA on demand just because the mother changed her mind at the last minute, but you know there are shady docs out there doing it if people come up with the cash to get it done and want it. There are certain guidelines for getting a LTA...mostly that the mothers life is in danger...it sure the hell didn't stop this guy.

this is only a guess..because according to reports he "treated" the poor, minorities, and immigrants. they probably were somewhat ignorant and thought he was a legit doctor.

these are the people who should be charged and thrown out of their jobs on their asses:

Well, no, you said that LTA were part of the pro-choice package which is where we disagreed but I absolutely agree with your statements above. I can't even THINK about LTA's without getting sick to my stomach. I honestly don't know if I can even justify them where the mother's life is in danger (save the baby or save the mother?). Blurg. And any doctor who practices them illegally and preys on poor desperate women? Or worse, this guy? Who actually committed murder? Death is too good for those "doctors". It hurts for my mind to even go there.

Sooo, it's OK to drive to a clinic for a Late Term Abortion if the mom is poor and ignorant? Who the fuck do you think goes to the fucking clinics? Smart, rich women?

WTF? Shame on the doctor and not the fucking whores who paid for that to be done to their own children?

No wonder Dick thinks women are fucking stupid. Y'all blame the fucked up doctor give the baby-killing bitches a pass.

I'm pro-choice, btw, but not as a form of birth control or a way to get rid of a baby when you don't feel like being pregnant anymore and change your mind six months in. They are babies in the third trimester. The women, poor and stupid and immigrants that they are, are to blame. If there are no clients, there is no business.
