Planned Parenthood Destruction of Evidence Case Postponed to November

A preliminary hearing over a criminal case against a Planned Parenthood abortion facility in Kansaswas postponed on Monday. Judge Stephen Tatum delayed the hearing because evidence crucial to the prosecution was destroyed, and he set a status conference for Nov. 9.
Last week, news broke that under former Gov. Kathleen Sebelius’ administration, the Kansas Department of Health and Environment destroyed original 2003 abortion reporting forms sometime in 2005.

Then-Attorney General Phill Kline subpoenaed the documents in 2004 during his investigations of the non-reporting of child sex abuse and illegal late-term abortions. The facility, located in Overland Park, a Kansas City suburb, is facing 107 charges, including 23 felony counts of falsifying documents.

"It is unconscionable that Sebelius' KDHE destroyed those documents knowing they had been subpoenaed for a criminal investigation," said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman in a statement Monday. "That willful destruction of evidence was a blatant act to protect Planned Parenthood from being held accountable to the law. Those who ordered that evidence be destroyed should be held accountable for obstruction of justice in a court of law."

This case could be potentially groundbreaking in conservative groups’ fight against Planned Parenthood. Kansans for Life Executive Director Mary Kay Culp told The Christian Post, “We keep hearing over and over that if Planned Parenthood is found guilty of a criminal felony they can lose all their federal funding. This is the first criminal case to go to trial against Planned Parenthood.”

But it has been a long time coming, with the case sitting in limbo for over seven years. Starting in 2003, Kline launched an investigation over abortion abuses after he subpoenaed late-term abortion files from Planned Parenthood and the late abortionist George Tiller’s facilities.

But because both organizations stalled in releasing the records, the Kansas State Supreme Court ruled that the abortion report files could be obtained, and the abortion providers finally complied with the subpoena by sending the files to Judge Richard Anderson.

As the reports were being reviewed by Anderson’s office, they found Planned Parenthood’s patient files were missing from the state reports. So Planned Parenthood was once again asked to submit report copies. After they were sent over, Anderson had the reports examined by an independent forgery expert, confirming the strong probability that Planned Parenthood had committed felony "false-writings" to cover up the misdemeanor of failing to make and keep the proper state reports.

Before the evidence could be analyzed completely, Kline was defeated by Paul Morrison as Attorney General, and appointed as District Attorney of the Kansas county where Planned Parenthood operates.

Kline tried to prosecute the “false writings” felony charges for forging documents when he became DA. But, at that time, the KDHE under Gov. Sebelius, opposed bringing the original reports to court, saying that a certain law (KSA 65-445) only permitted them to be shared with the AG. The AG was then Steve Six, who would not accommodate the Kline prosecution.

Cheryl Sullenger, senior policy adviser for Operation Rescue, told The Christian Post there is evidence of illegal late-term abortions because doctors didn’t provide a reason or basis for the abortion on the forms. She also commented on how critical this case is because “in order for Planned Parenthood to get $350 million of its Title X money, their organization has to certify they follow state and federal laws.

“There is a lot at stake here.”

Love of my country forces me to oppose a man whose hatred for my country has always been glaringly obvious: the obscene speeches of Jeremiah Wright, which proved the utter hatred that Obama has against my homeland.

The intensity of racist hate in all of Jeremiah Wright's furious sermons made it clear that only those who were consumed with hate could have remained there more than a few seconds.

Indeed, I would have walked out after Wright began screaming racist hatred the first time. I certainly would not have remained in that place for 21 years, absorbing more of that racist hate with each and every sermon. That is the filthiest variety of racist hate that has ever existed in this naton and Obama remained there because he was smitten with that variety of racist hate. That shows up with every one of his actions.

Cults of hate have always existed, as they cater to defiant, bitter, and reprobate persons, whose questionable mentation make them the least rational persons on the planet.

Hate of that variety has already slated all who remained there more than a few minutes to hell. There is no salvation for persons whose obsession to racist violence always drives them to rage.

If you busted any politician who did favors for supporters, and busted the supporters for soliciting and accepting the favors, the government would be run by unelected civil servants who would follow rules and procedures and not do favors. They would have a lot of bureaucracy and not much corruption, sort of like the part of the army that fights (as opposed to the part of the army that buys weapons).

Many people in this country do not believe that abortion is murder. Many more who say they believe that have nevertheless helped their nearest and dearest get one when necessary. You have the same right to impose your definition of murder on people who disagree as the Amish have to forbid you to use electricity. None.

This is another obvious case of a member of the Obama administration doing something to subvert the enforcement of laws which may injure their supporters. I hope they can find enough evidence to prosecute Kathleen Sebelius for obstruction of justice. Surely we can depend on Attorney General Eric Holder to do the right thing? Can't we? OF COURSE NOT! He himself needs to be investigated. But by whom? It's like having the fox guard the hen house.
