Abortion Doctor Faces Murder Charges
A West Philadelphia abortion doctor faces murder charges. Kermit Gosnell is accused of causing the death of one of his patients and killing several babies born alive.
Marie Smith is speaking out about the botched abortion she allegedly had at Dr. Kermit Gosnell's West Philadelphia abortion clinic that allegedly led to landing in the emergency room with a 106 fever.
At the outset of Tuesday's hearing before the Senate Consumer Protection and Professional Licensure Committee, Sen. Tommy Tomlinson said it's the duty of legislators to prevent the kind of regulatory shortcomings that allowed the clinic to operate unchecked for years.
Dr. Kermit Gosnell is due in court Wednesday to face charges after a grand jury alleged he routinely terminated late-term pregnancies and killed babies born alive by severing their spines with scissors.
