Exposé: Operation Rescue Uncovers Tiller History Of Illegal Abortions

Like father, like son: Tiller family criminal conduct spans seven decades

Wichita, KS – Operation Rescue has uncovered three source documents that reveal a pattern of illegal abortions by the Tiller family of Wichita, Kansas, spanning seven decades.

“George Tiller himself has a documented pattern of disregard for the law across four decades,” said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman. “It gives further urgency to the need to allow the criminal case filed against Tiller in December to move forward without further delay.”

Late-term abortionist George R. Tiller has admitted in a signed statement that he has a history of committing illegal abortions.
A statement, released by Voices of Choice in July, 2005, regarding the impending appointment of a replacement for U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O’Connor states in part, “As physicians who provided or facilitated abortions before Roe v. Wade, we saw the horrors of illegal abortion first-hand.” Fourteen abortionists, including George R. Tiller, signed the statement. (Read full statement.)

In two other documents, an undated interview published by Voices of Choice and an article from the Wichita Eagle dated Sept. 8, 1991, Tiller describes in his own words that his father, Jack Tiller, provided illegal abortions for women in his family practice as far back as the 1940s. Tiller admits that his discovery of this fact inspired him to abandon a career in dermatology and pursue a career as an abortionist.

In December, 2006, George Tiller was charged with 30 counts related to the commission of illegal late-term abortions. Those charges were dismissed on dubious jurisdictional grounds, and stonewalling tactics have been employed by Attorney General Paul Morrison, including the firing of a special prosecutor, to keep the case out of court.
