Landlord again attempts to evict Virginia abortion facility owned by ‘Abortion Queen’

The landlord of an abortion facility in Bristol, Virginia, is again attempting to evict the business, but the owner is vowing to stay.

Diane Derzis owns Bristol Women’s Health Center, which leases a commercial property building from brothers Chase King and Chadwick King. From the very beginning, the King brothers have tried to evict the abortion facility, claiming in December of 2022 that Derzis was not truthful about the nature of her business when she signed the lease with them. They said that the broker “represented that the type of medical practice of her clients was a general family practice,” and “they felt they had been misled and would never have leased the property to the Defendants” had they known it was an abortion facility.

Derzis denies misleading the King brothers, and said it’s their own fault for not doing due diligence on what the facility would be. Previously, Bristol Women’s Health had been operating just one mile away — across the state line in Bristol, Tennessee — and moved to its current location to escape Tennessee’s laws protecting preborn children from abortion.

Now, Derzis said she received a letter in April saying the lease would be terminated within 30 days, but filed an emergency order to stop the eviction, and vowed to keep her facility open. “The clinic will definitely stay open,” she said. “As these [abortion] bans continue and these crazy states surrounding Virginia continue this nonsense, it just makes it even more important that we be here for these women who need us.”

A hearing was held on May 30th in Bristol Circuit Court, but Judge Sage Johnson hasn’t yet issued a ruling. Johnson also hasn’t yet ruled on a lawsuit filed by the King brothers in 2023, which accused the facility of fraud. The Kings claimed they were not told abortions would be committed on site, and said they have suffered personal and professional losses as a result of owning a building which houses an abortion facility.

In the meantime, Derzis said she is looking to relocate, but cannot find a suitable building to move to.

Derzis, who has been nicknamed the “Abortion Queen,” has a long background of controversy. Her current facility is being sued by parents who say their 15-year-old daughter was pressured by abortion facility staff to get an abortion. According to the lawsuit, the girl “intended to take her child to full term and intended to deliver her baby at the appropriate time,” but a social services employee repeatedly pressured her to have an abortion, and even set up an appointment for her, even though the girl reportedly “remained upset throughout the process, and initially refused to cooperate with any abortion.” She was subjected to a chemical abortion.

A facility Derzis owned in Alabama was forcibly closed after it was found to be in terrible condition, and three patients were hospitalized; one was placed in intensive care on the same day. State health inspectors ultimately found 76 pages’ worth of health code violations.

After this, Derzis moved to Mississippi, where she opened her infamous “pink house” abortion facility, and continued employing the same abortionist responsible for the Alabama injuries. She believes that God wants her to commit abortions, and made headlines last year for saying that women should pay extra for abortions (even if those abortions were fully funded) because women needed to have “skin in the game.”

This one is tricky.

I wonder how long she signed the lease for?

Maybe the landlord should rent out the space next door to Pro life people.

Not tricky at all. She fraudulently rented it. And likely is causing permanent damage to the landlord’s ability to rent out that building in the future with it having a gruesome past.

It’s only “tricky” if you don’t understand commercial leasing.

The nature of the business is important information for a commercial lease. Hiding it can be construed as fraud. In this case the question was asked in *writing.

Despite what the murderess claims, the landlord had no requirement for “due dilligence” regarding claims (or false claims) made by the tenant.

Case closed in any legit court.

And the Judge (that’s God, in case you didn’t know) will hear their cries and deliver justice.

Rent it out to a curry restaurant and vent the kitchen odors toward the abortion facility.

I certainly wouldn’t rent the space.

Not one to think much of ghost stories, but if anywhere would be haunted, this would be such a place.

I know that God has a special place for people that own, work for, or do business with these types of places.

How is this tricky?

When the lease is up, and the owners do not wish to renew to you, you go.

A lease is only as good for as long as its for.

I’d sue the realtor and the facility for fraudulent misrepresentation. Its fraud.

Historically, tanning operations were located downwind and out of town due to the odor they generated. I suggest the landlord invite an operation like that in next door. And then maybe a music school specializing in teaching drums to hard-of-hearing students on the other side. Lots of interesting ideas could present themselves...

Or better yet — pray for heavy thunderstorms and rain with lots of lightning.

True story: there was a Catholic hospital that was forced to rent property to an abortion clinic much to their disgust.

This went for some time until a line of heavy thunderstorms rolled in with lots of heavy rain and heavy lightning.

Well, lo and behold, the abortion clinic was hit by lightning and burned flat to the ground; there wasn’t even two sticks left together. Well, the abortionist blamed prolifers for the fire; the fire marshal told him in so many words, look bub there’s been about a half dozen fires from lightning strikes and that is why I’m ruling this as a result of a lightning strike.

I wonder how she would feel about her own abortion. It could simply be termed as: “an abortion in the 169th trimester”.
