You are correct, and I apologize if I have been guilty of rash judgment.
As you say, Vere has been very open about his past, and his present, in which his leisure-time activities consist of horror novels, drinking games and WWF. It was for that reason that I assumed this was something that he had been open about in the past. But if Vere has never said he participated in an abortion, then I apologize for believing this information without sufficient evidence.
