The Indiana doctor whose abortion on a 10-year-old girl was used as a talking point by the left and doubted by conservatives has hit back at her detractors - including the state's attorney general, who she is suing for defamation.
The account asserts the unnamed girl was forced to seek an abortion in Indiana after her home state of Ohio barred abortions, and became a flashpoint in the debate over abortion rights after it was shared to a local newspaper by an unnamed source last month.
The story soon came under scrutiny - with pundits, politicians, news publications and even personalities clashing over its veracity following last month's controversial overturning of Roe vs. Wade.
That initial doubt, however, was soon quelled, after it was revealed that the rape had taken place, and that a 27-year-old Ohio man has been charged with raping the girl.
Records further revealed that the abortion also occurred, days after the historic ruling- and that Indianapolis obstetrician-gynecologist Caitlin Bernard was the doctor who performed it.
Speaking on national television Tuesday, Bernard slammed politicians and news publications who questioned the story's veracity, after the Supreme Court nixed federal rights for abortions in June.

Also this “doctor” is quite obviously an activist and quite an opportunist as these activities prove.

In MN we have Mandated Reporter status. That doctor would have been in trouble for NOT reporting the rape to the authorities. Is this just a MN policy?
Not an “activist” (whatever that is), but definitely a hired killer.
