Abortionist LeRoy Carhart sends third patient to hospital in three months

Late-term abortionist LeRoy Carhart has sent another patient to the hospital – the third in less than three months. An ambulance was called on February 4 to Carhart’s facility in Bellevue (hear the 911 call here), Nebraska (this patient’s health status is currently unknown) – but his Germantown, Maryland, facility has seen its share of ambulance calls as well.

In fact, Operation Rescue reports that the two other most recent emergencies occurred in Germantown on January 19, 2016, and on December 15, 2015.

But this isn’t unusual for Carhart, who has a history of injuring and even killing women who have come to him for late-term abortions. Operation Rescue also states that “[t]he January 19 injury in Maryland and the February 4 emergency in Nebraska combine for a total of eleven medical emergencies documented by Operation Rescue since 2012”:

Carhart, according to Operation Rescue, “has no hospital privileges anywhere, and hasn’t since 1982.” Perhaps this is because Carhart’s practices aren’t just questionable – they’re completely unsafe.

In 2013, Live Action exposed Carhart’s abortion practices in the InHuman video series, in which Carhart told an undercover investigator posing as a patient not to worry if she went into labor before making it to his facility – they had a plan for this. Pro-life blogger Jill Stanek remarked at the time:

Cassy Fiano previously reported on Carhart for Live Action News:

Fiano also states that complaints against Carhart “go[] back decades” and include allegations that he altered charts, fell asleep during procedures and more:

The fact that authorities continue to overlook Carhart’s offenses – which, as the recent ambulance calls indicate, continue today – should give women pause before visiting this abortionist. Carhart’s personal mantra may be “Trust Women,” but the question is… should women trust Carhart?
