Investigation sought into abortionist's practices

Operation Rescue is conducting a research project on Nebraska abortionist Leroy Carhart.

Operation Rescue president Troy Newman wants to hear from women who may have been harmed or suffered botched abortions and have not spoken out. He also tells OneNewsNow about Carhart's working environment in Nebraska.
 
"Mr. Carhart has a long history of operating a shoddy, slovenly abortion clinic," he explains. "Things like trash piled up in the basement that would cause a fire. After that fire, he actually tried to operate his abortion clinic from a generator."
 
Newman also says an old pickup truck, sitting on its wheel rims, has been parked in front of the building for weeks. The shop was closed down temporarily by local officials. Newman says there are further reasons for his research.
 
"We believe he's breaking the law, but we're also asking for women who have had abortions or have had contact with Mr. Carhart in the last five years to contact us and tell us of some of the miseries or complications that they've had from their abortion," he says. "We want to include that in a report to the attorney general."
 
According to Newman, all information will be kept confidential. The pro-life group will be asking the attorney general to close the clinic, and will ask the Nebraska Medical Association to revoke Carhart's medical license.
