The videotape was filmed covertly in a New Jersey Planned Parenthood clinic by actors working for an anti-abortion group, Live Action. Its release on Tuesday has embarrassed Planned Parenthood, which provides contraceptives, gynecological care, cancer screening and abortions across the country, mainly to low-income women. It has also given new energy to abortion opponents who want to eliminate federal and state money for the agency.
....Last week, Planned Parenthood announced that people claiming to be sex traffickers had visited at least 12 of its clinics in six states in January and that it had notified the Justice Department. The group also said that, based on an identification of one of the visitors, it had concluded that the visits were a hoax by Live Action. Planned Parenthood said the group, which is led by Lila Rose, 22, had a history of using “surreptitious videotaping and manipulative editing” in a campaign to destroy it.
The video from the clinic shows a woman identified as Amy Woodruff, the office manager, responding to an unseen man and woman. The man says he is involved in sex work and wants to bring girls, some only 14 or 15 and illegal immigrants, for medical exams.
The manager seems ready to bend the rules to provide medical care to the girls and says the girls should be careful about admitting their ages, especially if they are under 15, which triggers extra reporting requirements. “For the most part, we want as little information as possible,” she says.
Asked if the girls can obtain abortions, the manager replies that if they are under 15, they should go to another clinic where “their protocols are not as strict as ours.” ....

Didn't think so. ‘notifying the justice department’ isn't calling the police department, PP. It is trying to cover your rump because you know there's another half dozen videos yet to come.
I don’t understand why PP is acting like they didn’t know anything when this is Standard Operating Procedure. I guess if you get caught you are gone.
Besides slaughtering millions of children and advocating for more, PP has the hideous distinction of being the cover of choice for the incestuous, the statutory rapist, and the pimp.
Pure evil.
Astonishingly, I just caught a segment on CNN where the interviewer actually challenged Planned Parenthood’s contention that the real problem here is the repressive, anti-woman agenda of the group that made the video.
Absolutely shocking!
She even agrees to take a bribe to help him get all his girls through with the least amount of trouble by giving her a few-days lead time so that she can grease the wheels and shoot them through en masse.
Thanks Cincinatus’ Wife. Follow-up.
PLANNED PARENTHOOD RAP SHEET: How taxpayers subsidize this oddball organization's peculiar fixation w/ genatalia.
<><><><> The US Inspector General found that NJ Planned Parenthood falsified Medicaid claims to get their hands on $2.9 million they were not entitled to.
<><><><> Planned Parenthood of the Inland Northwest will pay the state $345,000 after settling a 2009 audit that uncovered the clinic used incorrect codes and provided insufficient documentation for some claims billed to Medicaid. The original audit finding estimated the Spokane family-planning organization improperly billed Medicaid more than $629,000 for 333 patient procedures from March 2004 through February 2007. During that time, the clinic collected about $7.6 million from Medicaid.
<><><><> Planned Parenthood is under criminal investigation for billing taxpayers high prices for birth control equipment that they obtained on the cheap.

Pro-Life Victory: KS Supreme Court Allows Planned Parenthood Criminal Case to go Forward
TOPEKA, Kansas, October 15, 2010 (LifeSiteNews.com) - The Kansas Supreme Court ruled today that the mammoth 107-count criminal case against Planned Parenthood of Kansas and Mid-Missouri may move forward and remanded the case back down to the Johnson County District Attorney's Office for prosecution.
"This is a huge victory for the cause of life," said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman, whose group has worked for years to bring Planned Parenthood to justice. "Now it is up to the Johnson County District Attorney to do the right thing and prosecute Planned Parenthood to the fullest in the interest of justice and in the interest of public safety."
The charges were filed in 2007 by then-District Attorney Phill Kline, who had investigated Planned Parenthood and George Tiller for illegal late-term abortions during his tenure as State Attorney General. --SNIP--
Bravo to Lila Rose! I sure hope she is careful about her personal safety and can avoid the traps they will use to discredit her.
I liked the taped phone call a year or two ago when a “potential donor” wanted to ensure that their donation would be used to secure an abortion for a black woman; the worker assured them that they could do that.
That’s all it was ever about anyway.
I agree on prayers for her and her whole team as well!
The second video has been released now....
