2 Workers for Abortion Doc Due in Court

Two women who worked at an unlicensed West Philadelphia abortion clinic are expected to plead guilty in court today.

Two women are expected to plead guilty on Thursday for their role in the deaths that occurred at an unlicensed abortion clinic in West Philadelphia.

The clinic was run by Dr. Kermit Gosnell, 70. Seven late-term babies who prosecutors say were born alive were killed at the clinic as well as Karnamaya Mongar, 41, an immigrant woman who died after a botched 2009 abortion.
