Every so often in such a serious matter as the Kermit Gosnell murder trial, a little levity take places.
As local Philadelphia-based reporter J.D. Mullane reports today, Gosnell demanded that uniformed officers address him as Doctor. The refused.
Theres no background on whether the exchange took place whether it was in the courtroom, in his jail cell or during one of the times he was taken to or from the courtroom during the trial.
Either way, its confirmation that those responsible for Gosnells imprisonment pending the outcome of the trial understand that an abortion practitioner who killed babies doesnt deserve the respected title normally afforded to an upstanding physician.

As LifeNews has reported, Gosnell is in solitary confinement in prison awaiting the verdict in the case.
Maybe they can compromise and call him “Herr Doctor?”
