'We will fight': Planned Parenthood protests as pro-life groups celebrate Supreme Court overturning 49 years of Roe
In a statement to The Christian Post on Tuesday ahead of the Supreme Court's ruling, journalists Ann McElhinney and Phelim McAleer, who released a true crime podcast this month about Kermit Gosnell, noted that the Pennsylvania abortionist conducted his dangerous operations legally.
"He was killing in plain sight. Lots of people knew what was going on but because the victims were minorities and he was an abortion doctor — the authorties and regulators chose to look the other way," the pair said.
"When the case went to trial the story received scant coverage in the mainstream media. It should have been a massive story especially because the communities most affected by Gosnell were minorities and the poor."
Gosnell was found guilty in May 2013 of killing one woman and multiple infants born alive at an unsanitary abortion clinic he operated for years. The lack of inspections from the Pennsylvania Department of State and the Pennsylvania Department of Health allowed the abortionist to operate unchecked for 17 years until evidence of his crimes were discovered during a 2010 drug raid.
District Attorney R. Seth Williams laid out the case against Gosnell and his employees in a grand jury report which referred to the clinic as a "House of Horrors" due to its condition.
