According to the Pro-life group, Operation Rescue, a Kansas woman has died as a result of an abortion gone awry at the clinic of late-term abortion specialist George Tiller.
The woman was transferred from the clinic to Wesley Medical Center by ambulance on January 13th and is reported to have died a few days later.
According to 911 dispatch records, the abortion clinic staffer who called the ambulance was being “very evasive” and “refused to give any information about the patient.”
Troy Newman, president of Operation Rescue questioned the judgment of Kansas Governor Kathleen Sebelius in vetoing the clinic regulation act.
“That statue could very well have prevented this needless and tragic death”, he said.
Cheryl Sullenger, Operation Rescue’s outreach coordinator added that, “We call upon the Kansas Board of Healing Arts, which is overseen by the Governor's office, to quickly investigate this tragic and needless death, and, in the interest of public safety, to suspend the medical license of George Tiller until a full investigation is complete."
