The name of America’s most prolific serial killer is Kermit Gosnell. He avoided the death penalty by waiving his right to appeal, and is serving life without parole. His story is told in the movie, “Gosnell: The Trial of America’s Biggest Serial Killer.” It opens nationwide this Friday, October 12.Excerpted from Jonathan Lange's October 9, 2018, The Federalist article, "How America’s Most Prolific Serial Killer Almost Got Away With Murder."
The most sensational trial of a serial killer in the history of America had virtually no reporters in the court room. The biggest crime since 1893 could not be covered because the reporters could not say why it was wrong.
One of those who noticed was Mollie Ziegler Hemingway. At the time she was a reporter for GetReligion.org. Nearly three weeks into Gosnell’s trial, there had yet to be any mainstream media coverage. So, on April 7, she published a story about the blackout. She followed up with six more, published between April 10 and April 16.
In the new Gosnell movie, Hemingway and [J.D.] Mullane’s roles are woven together into a fictional character named Mollie Mullaney (played by Cyrina Fiallo). In many ways she is the heroine of the story, and a reminder of the vital need for an unflinching press corps.
