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.

Wade, we saw the horrors of illegal abortion first-hand.” Fourteen abortionists, including George R...

Legislature urged to take immediate action to reinstate abortion charges Topeka, KS – Operation Rescue is calling for Attorney General Paul Morrison to recuse himself from participation in any decision process related to criminal case against Wichita abortionist George R. Tiller because of the following: Morrison has benefited from over a million dollars in campaign help from organizations linked directly to Tiller . The hit-piece style mailings and phone calls funded by Tiller groups against Morrison’s opponent likely influenced the outcome of the election, creating a conflict of interest. Morrison stated during his recent campaign that he would drop investigations into Kansas abortion clinics. Morrison fired an independent special prosecutor assigned to the Tiller case. Morrison promised not to interfere with a writ of mandamus filed with the Kansas Supreme Court, then went back on his word and withdrew the motion before the Court had an opportunity to rule.

He's at again - violating Kansas law - with no consequences for his illegal act. Operation Rescue reports that a woman in her eighth month of pregnancy entered Tiller’s Wichita late-term abortion mill this afternoon, and began the process to abort her baby even though the woman admitted to pro-life supporters outside the clinic that she is perfectly healthy, physically and mentally, and that her baby is also healthy. Kansas law prohibits such abortions after 22 weeks of pregnancy. It is entirely illegal in the State of Kansas for a healthy woman to obtain an abortion in her eighth month of a healthy pregnancy for convenience reasons,” said Operation Rescue spokesperson Cheryl Sullenger. “Women simply don’t have a legal right to do that.” Read details of Tuesday’s Capitol Rally and Press Conference Sign a national petition to reinstate Tiller charges of illegal late-term abortions.
