Abortionist Demands Inquiry into Kansas AG Practices

 

Kansas abortionist George Tiller is calling for an investigation of state Attorney General Phill Kline after the host of Fox's The O'Reilly Factor reported an "inside source" disclosed that Tiller performed late-term abortions when a patient only exhibited depression, The Associated Press reported.

For two years, Kline sought records from two clinics in order to determine if there was evidence of crimes, including rape, abuse of a minor and illegal late-term abortions. The records, which were turned over to him Oct. 24, did not disclose patient names.

On Friday's broadcast of The O'Reilly Factor, host Bill O'Reilly accused Tiller of "executing babies," when he used depression as justification for a late-term abortion.

The talk-show host also claimed to have evidence that Tiller's clinic and another unnamed clinic have broken Kansas law by failing to report potential abuse and rape victims ages 10 to 15.

Kline was interviewed by O'Reilly during the segment.

"Our information says that on almost every medical sheet -- and obviously we have a source inside here -- it says, 'depression,'" O'Reilly said to Kline during the interview. "I don't know whether you have that information or not -- I don't know -- but that's what it says."

Sherriene Jones, spokeswoman for Kline, said she does not know where O'Reilly got his information.

"We don't know anything about Mr. O'Reilly's inside source," she said. "I assumed he was talking about somebody on the inside of the abortion clinics."
