Mark Houck, 48, faced 11 years in prison for allegedly violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act
------------------
A jury has reportedly acquitted Pennsylvania pro-life activist who was accused of allegedly pushing a Planned Parenthood escort during a clash outside an abortion clinic, Life News reported.
Mark Houck, 48, faced charges that he violated the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act, which makes it a federal crime to use force with the intent to injure, intimidate and interfere with anyone because that person produces reproductive health care. He pleaded not guilty.
The charge stems from an Oct. 13, 2021 incident in which the Biden Administration alleged Houck assaulted and "forcefully shoved" Bruce Love, a 72-year-old volunteer at a Philadelphia Planned Parenthood.
Houck was arrested in his home by multiple FBI agents in September 2022.
U.S. Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, celebrated the news of Houck's acquittal with a tweet.
"Good. Begs question of the $48 billion we give to DOJ…," he wrote.
Shortly after Houck's arrest last fall, his attorney Peter Breen told Fox News Digital that his client's arrest was an "outrageous abuse of power" from the Department of Justice that was intended to intimidate pro-life Americans.
"The message from the Biden Department of Justice is pure intimidation against pro-life people and people of faith," said Breen, senior counsel of the Thomas More Society. "Why in the world would you send this phalanx of officers heavily armed to this family's home, violate the sanctity of their home, frighten their children? Why would you do that, other than just to send a message?

Fantastic. If we can get trials out of DC conservatives have a shot at equal justice. Meanwhile, the corrupt Garland continues to target those with whom he disagrees. https://t.co/G6Ww15Kn0D— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) January 30, 2023
Hooray!
Pro-Life ping...
There’s a recent story from Britain of a person (not sure of gender) who was a arrested for silently praying some distance from an abortion mill. IRC he/she wasn’t on,or very close to,the property and wasn’t making a sound.
Answered prayers!
No First Amendment in Britain nor is there Freedom of Religion.
I’d remind everyone that those rat bastards in the DOJ brought charges AFTER the locals declined to prosecute. The “victim” was being an a-hole and deserved far more than he got
It was a Pennsylvania jury. Is Mark Levin saying that juries should be like this in D.C.?
Sue them into hell and back!!!
A woman,yes.
