Father Frank Pavone: Houston Abortionist Killing Babies Born Alive

As we have said, Kermit Gosnell is not the exception in the abortion industry; he is the norm. As we have seen countless cases in the past, we expect to see many more in the future. And each of them should prompt us all to action. (Fr Frank Pavone)

P>STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. (Priests for Life) - Father Frank Pavone, National Director of Priests for Life, announced Thursday afternoon that Priests for Life has launched a project to expose Texas abortionist Douglas Karpen, and the evidence that he is killing babies born alive, and violating numerous other laws. We are calling for a full-scale investigation by Texas state authorities.

"The Harris County, Texas, District Attorney has already opened an investigation; we are sending out an action alert to the Attorney General to take swift and thorough action until this abortionist is stopped," Fr. Frank explained.

"As we have said, Kermit Gosnell is not the exception in the abortion industry; he is the norm. As we have seen countless cases in the past, we expect to see many more in the future. And each of them should prompt us all to action.

 "Priests for Life is working in partnership with Life Dynamics and Operation Rescue on highlighting the atrocities being committed in Karpen's clinic and elsewhere. We have set up the web site TexasGosnell.com to provide vital information about the ongoing investigation and how people can support it."

The investigation was prompted by video testimony from three of Karpen's former employees, who describe the truly horrific conditions at the clinic and the brutal murders of newborn babies there.
