Planned Parenthood Sued after Botched Abortion on 13-Year-Old

 

Planned Parenthood Metropolitan in Washington, D.C., is facing a $50 million lawsuit after performing an abortion on a 13-year-old that caused severe abdominal bleeding, severe vaginal injury, severe injury to the cervix, significant uterine perforation, a small bowel tear and sterilization.

Emma Jean Butler took her daughter to the clinic on Sept. 7, 2006, to abort her preborn baby conceived by rape.

Kristan Hawkins, executive director of Students for Life of America, said: "How ironic is it that the pro-abortion movement claims they want abortions to be ’safe, legal and rare,’ when in this poster case for abortion, the young girl was permanently injured — making abortion harmful and almost deadly.”
