At worst, he comes across as a witch hunter ... if the woman is pregnant, then she must not have been “legitimately” raped.

I doubt he meant any such thing

And BTW I have heard that statement about getting pregnant from rape being very rare for the reason he stated used in the past by ProLifers
Evidently he was told that as a medical fact by someone he believed
I doubt he made it up on the spot

Since from what I read he is very much in touch with the PROLIFE movement. I would assume that is where he got the view

He should have made sure it was a medical fact but like I said he was probably given that info by someone he trusted

I would like to hear him state WHY he thought it to be true

“I would like to hear him state WHY he thought it to be true”

He was using the information he got from a doctor who holds the opinion/theory that a female’s reproductive system does shut down during rape.

Does a female’s reproductive system shut down during rape? I have no idea. Just trying to answer your question. The post about the doctor was on one of the Akin threads yesterday.
