Planned Parenthood Concealed Rape Of Minor
GOP Bloggers ^ | December 14, 2005 | Matt Margolis

Posted on 12/14/2005 10:53:24 AM PST by Mark Noonan

release from the American Life League reveals that Planned Parenthood knowingly concealed the rape of an 11 year old, and then bragged about it on their website...

"In the 'Shared Stories' section of the Planned Parenthood Golden Gate web site, the group published a letter in which a young girl praises Planned Parenthood for not telling her parents that she was raped by her 17-year-old boyfriend when she was just 11 years old. Neither the letter itself nor Planned Parenthood made any mention of Planned Parenthood alerting law enforcement to this sexual abuse of an 11-year-old child.

'Attorneys general in several states are trying to get records of young Planned Parenthood clients to see how widespread this practice of protecting rapists is at Planned Parenthood.' said Sedlak. 'Planned Parenthood is fighting each of these efforts using its high-priced lawyers.'"

If this little slut would wait until she's at least out of high school, she might find a man with whom she doesn't NEED to worry about HIV and STDs. She only needs to keep getting tested for these things because one or both of them are not monogamous.

Note the use of "current" boyfriend, implying there have been others. A 14 year old girl doesn't need to be on birth control, she needs parents who are involved in her life and aren't letting her run around like a tramp.

Such behavior from me would have never happened in my father's household.

...she was raped by her 17-year-old boyfriend when she was just 11 years old.

The police need to find out who this 17-year-old boyfriend is RIGHT NOW. If a 17-year-old male finds an 11-year-old girl to be even remotely sexy he has some serious problems, and he is only going to get worse. An 11-year-old girl is a little girl. He needs to be locked up immediately!

From seeing it first hand, some girls will tell mommy and daddy they are going over to their best friends house, and then go, leave and meet up with someone else.

Or, even slicker, the boy friend is the 17 YO brother of her "best girlfriend", whom she meets up with at the girl friend's house.

It could also explain how she met the 17 YO in the first place.

and exactly what in the he*l is an 11 year old doing with a 17 year old boyfriend..

Having sex. And an abortion.

I've learned over the years to not to trust this sort of story. Note that we don't really know if this is a true story -- it was an anonymous posting on a web site. Nor should we believe that the people who're telling us this story have a) got it right; and b) told us everything about the alleged situation. All we really know is that they're (quite correctly) opposed to Planned Parenthood.

Do I believe that PP would do something like this? Absolutely. But I'm not convinced that what's being alleged here actually did happen.

Planned Parenthood Caught Concealing Rape of 11-year-old

By Hilary White

SAN FRANCISCO, December 16, 2005 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Planned Parenthood’s San Francisco office has removed a letter from its website that purported to be from a girl thanking the organization for not telling her parents that she has been raped when she was eleven by her then-17 year-old “boyfriend.” “Planned Parenthood helped me deal with the aftermath of the rape allowing me to deal and cope as best as I could in my own way,” the letter said.

American Life League’s affiliate, STOPP International said that Planned Parenthood removed the letter from their website after it caught the attention of their own and other pro-life groups.

Jim Sedlak, executive director of STOPP International said, “Planned Parenthood acts as if it is exempt from the law. The organization knows it is mandated to report suspected cases of sexual abuse involving minors, yet it seemingly fails to do so.”

STOPP International is calling on California’s Attorney General to investigate Planned Parenthood’s practices.

Under the title, “It keeps us safe” the unsigned letter said that Planned Parenthood had provided the girl with birth control pills when she “decided to start having sex,” at age 14. The letter said that the girl, now 17, had also been provided with testing for sexually transmitted diseases, including HIV, four times. Nothing in the letter indicated that Planned Parenthood had alerted the authorities about the rape or had tried to discourage the girl from underage sex.

Under the California penal code, the legal age of consent is 18, and anyone who has sexual relations with a child can be found guilty of a felony. According to recent statistics, in California, almost 70% of teen births are fathered by adult men.

In 2002, the Texas-based pro-life group, Life Dynamics surveyed 800 abortion facilities and revealed that in 91% of cases, the facility staff agreed to conceal cases of statutory rape.

Planned Parenthood conceals rape of 11-year-old and brags about it on web site

By Amber Dolle, all.org


Washington, D.C. — "People may be skeptical when pro-life groups accuse Planned Parenthood of violating the law and protecting rapists," said Jim Sedlak, executive director of American Life League's STOPP International. "However, when Planned Parenthood itself seems to brag, on one of its official web sites, about doing just that, it is time law enforcement agencies in every state address the situation."

In the "Shared Stories" section of the Planned Parenthood Golden Gate web site, the group published a letter in which a young girl praises Planned Parenthood for not telling her parents that she was raped by her 17-year-old boyfriend when she was just 11 years old. Neither the letter itself nor Planned Parenthood made any mention of Planned Parenthood alerting law enforcement to this sexual abuse of an 11-year-old child.

"Attorneys general in several states are trying to get records of young Planned Parenthood clients to see how widespread this practice of protecting rapists is at Planned Parenthood." said Sedlak. "Planned Parenthood is fighting each of these efforts using its high-priced lawyers.

"An in-depth expose done a few years ago by Life Dynamics Incorporated seemed to show that more than 90 percent of Planned Parenthood and National Abortion Federation clinics around the country routinely advise underage girls how to avoid the mandatory reporting requirements of the various states," Sedlak said. "It is time that authorities everywhere addressed this threat to our children. STOPP calls on pro-lifers nationwide to do all they can to get local district attorneys to investigate local Planned Parenthood offices."

In response to several comments, if anyone has sex with a 12 year old child, it is at least statutory rape if not rape pure and simple.

It is possible that a child could be raped without her parents knowing it. For instance, if they were strict with her, she might well tell a teacher or school nurse, who could refer her to Planned Parenthood without parental notification. Or the rapist might have taken her to Planned Parenthood afterwards. Or, as has been the case in similar incidents, the rapist's mother could have taken her to have the abortion.

Since no one has to notify the parents, it's very possible they had no way to know about it.

Also, this is not uncommon. Technically speaking, Planned Parenthood is complicit with rapists on a regular basis, because very few states have parental consent laws that have not been shot down by activist judges.

Planned Parenthood Abortion Center Accused of Hiding 11 Year-Old's Rape


by Paul Nowak
LifeNews.com Staff Writer
December 15, 2005

http://www.lifenews.com/state1329.html


San Francisco, CA (LifeNews.com) -- A testimonial posted on a California Planned Parenthood abortion business' website regarding an 11-year-old rape victim has sparked a call for an investigation into the organization's handling of sexual abuse cases.
In the “Shared Stories” section of Planned Parenthood Golden Gate's website, a client's shared her story.

“I was raped at 11, by my 17 year old boyfriend. I chose not to tell my parents because I didn't think their involvement would help, that was the right choice for me. Planned Parethood [sic] helped me deal with the aftermath of the rape allowing me to deal and cope as best as I could in my own way.”

In response, pro-life leaders have called for an investigation, as Planned Parenthood is required by law to report cases of child abuse. The abortion business has since removed the post from their web site.

When contacted, a representative of Planned Parenthood Golden Gate would not comment to LifeNews.com on whether the rape was reported to authorities.

That has pro-life advocates up in arms.

“Statements on Planned Parenthood Golden Gate's web site strongly indicate that the California Planned Parenthood affiliate could be guilty of being an accomplice to a crime by allowing a rapist to remain free in his community,” said Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council.

“According to California state law, Planned Parenthood may be criminally negligible for not reporting the crime and there is a chance the statute of limitations still applies for the rapist,” continued Perkins, a former Louisiana state legislator.

“In the guise of protecting an 11-year-old child, Planned Parenthood has instead further made her a victim, while protecting her rapist," Perkins explained. "According to California state statistics almost 70% of teen births are children of adult men, and teenage girls are twice as likely to have sexually transmitted diseases as teenage boys."

“Who is watching out for the children?” concluded Perkins. “This is standard operating procedure for Planned Parenthood and in this case California's attorney general needs to investigate and, if necessary, prosecute to the fullest extent of the law.”

This isn't the first time Planned Parenthood Golden Gate has come under fire.

In September 2003, 18-year-old Holly Patterson died after receiving the abortion drug Mifeprex, also known as RU-486, from the Planned Parenthood chapter.

Planned Parenthood has been accused of telling patients to take one part of the drug vaginally instead of orally, as recommended by the FDA. That has resulted in the deaths of four California women who developed deadly bacterial infections as a result.

I was raped at 11, by my 17 year old boyfriend. I chose not to tell my parents because I didn't think their involvement would help, that was the right choice for me. Planned Parethood helped me deal with the aftermath of the rape allowing me to deal and cope as best as I could in my own way. I was 14 when I decided to start having sex, the day I made that choice I made an appointment to get birth control pills. I'm 17 now, I've been with my current boyfriend for about two years. During that time i've been HIV and STD tested four times. Right now I'm sitting in the waiting room while my boyfriend gets the results for his HIV test. We love each other so we're responsible and Planned Parenthood helps us to do that.

MATTERS OF LIFE AND DEATH
11-year-old's rape
swept under rug?
Planned Parenthood removes revealing letter from website



Posted: December 16, 2005
1:00 a.m. Eastern






© 2005 WorldNetDaily.com
After drawing attention from pro-life groups, Planned Parenthood's San Francisco affiliate removed from its website a purported letter from a girl thanking the abortion provider for helping conceal from her parents a rape that occurred when she was 11.

The American Life League's STOPP International is calling on California Attorney General Bill Lockyer to investigate, asking whether Planned Parenthood is trying to hide evidence of a crime.


"Planned Parenthood acts as if it is exempt from the law," said STOPP International's executive director, Jim Sedlak. "The organization knows it is mandated to report suspected cases of sexual abuse involving minors, yet it seemingly fails to do so."

The letter appeared in the "Shared Stories" section of the Planned Parenthood Golden Gate website.

Neither the letter itself nor Planned Parenthood Golden Gate indicated whether the organization alerted authorities to the reported sexual abuse of an 11-year-old child, STOPP International said.

The letter indicates the girl now is 17.

Sedlak called Planned Parenthood a "dangerous organization," saying "we must ensure that it is held accountable for its actions."

Last month, Californians voted down a measure requiring parents to be notified before a minor has an abortion.

A backer of the proposition, Yes on 73, argued for its passage by pointing to a well-documented survey by Texas-based Life Dynamics revealing virtually all Planned Parenthood affiliates fail to report clear cases of statutory rape to authorities.

The Yes on 73 website site provides some of the audio tapes of a Life Dynamics researcher who telephoned 800 Planned Parenthood and National Abortion Federation facilities nationwide portraying a 13-year-old girl who had been made pregnant by a 22-year-old boyfriend.

The caller told the clinics she wanted an abortion "because she and her boyfriend did not want her parents to find out about the sexual relationship," a summary of the report stated.

Among the findings was that many clinic workers acknowledged the girl's situation was illegal and that they were required by law to report it, but an "overwhelming majority readily agreed" to keep secret the illegal sexual contact.

Life Dynamics said that in 91 percent of its calls, the person reached at the center agreed to conceal the statutory rape.


Girls under age 14 are presumed to be victims of rape, but Planned Parenthood argues compliance with the underage reporting law would breach the doctor-patient confidentiality agreement.

Nevertheless, Life Dynamic President Mark Crutcher insists Planned Parenthood understands the law, noting his group has a tape recording of the abortion provider's top two national attorneys admitting that child-abuse reporting laws override confidentiality requirements in every state.

The Life Dynamics probe has led to a number of legal investigations across the nation. In addition to the Planned Parenthood investigation, the pro-life group brought about the 1999 congressional hearings on the sale of aborted baby parts.
