A man in the UK has been found guilty after causing a “forced abortion” upon a woman at 15 weeks gestation, by drugging her with the abortion pill. Stuart Worby, 40, reportedly obtained and then crushed the abortion drug mifepristone into her orange juice. He also sexually assaulted the woman and forced more mifepristone into her without her knowledge. The woman was 15 weeks pregnant when her preborn child died as a result of the assault. After the victim suffered significant cramping and heavy bleeding, she checked herself into a hospital, where it appeared she had suffered a miscarriage. However,...

Second Frightening Emergency after Reopening Just Three Months Ago Wichita, KS – On October 21, at 1:15 p.m., an employee of Trust Women abortion clinic called to report that a 28-year-old woman was suffering from a possible uterine perforation after a “pretty painful” procedure. She stated the patient’s vitals were stable, though the 911 service oddly redacted her blood pressure from the audio file and computer-aided dispatch transcript. The employee also stated there were “no complications” and then quickly corrected herself to include, “besides the possible perforation.” “Countless moms have died as a result of organs being perforated or punctured...

Missouri, Kansas, and Idaho have filed an amended lawsuit in federal court, claiming their “sovereign” interest in “protecting… citizens” was violated by the Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) decision to expand access to the abortion pill to mail-order dispensing. The lawsuit, State of Missouri; State of Kansas; State of Idaho v. FDA, filed on October 14, 2024, in Amarillo, Texas, is “asking US District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk to rollback efforts the Food and Drug Administration has taken over the past eight years to ease access to the drug, such as allowing it to be dispensed through the mail,” CNN reported....

Maternal Abortion Injuries Continue in Illinois and Other States Where Abortion Rates Increase Flossmoor, Illinois – Once again the myth of “safe abortion” has been proven to be just a myth. On August 20, yet another woman was rushed to the emergency room after an abortion procedure – an occurrence which comes as no surprise in Illinois, a state which has become an abortion destination. The mother underwent an abortion at Planned Parenthood in Flossmoor and sadly joined the list of many women who have become victims of the abortion cartel’s greed. An employee from Planned Parenthood called 911 to...

The family of Amber Thurman is planning on suing a Georgia hospital for malpractice following her death-by-abortion-pills. In the summer of 2022, Thurman found herself pregnant with twins. She decided to end their lives using abortion pills to effectively drown her babies like a couple of kittens in a sack sinking into the river. After taking the abortifacient drugs, Thurman suffered complications when her body failed to expel all the fetal tissue (baby body parts) from her, leading to a serious infection and, ultimately, organ failure. Needing a dilation and curettage to clear her uterus, doctors delayed her surgery in...

Well-known late term abortionist Warren Hern recently questioned the care women receive when they are sold abortion pills by asking the obvious: Who is doing “follow-up exam[s]” and “tak[ing] care of… a complication”? In a recent interview with the New Yorker, “America’s Abortion Doctor” stated: “My issue with medication abortion is—is there a follow-up exam? Do you know if the uterus is empty or not? Who’s going to take care of them if there’s a complication? Because of political oppression, people are afraid to take care of the patient.” Hern fails to note that the reason so many don’t know...

Media Propaganda and Lies Used to Blame Georgia Heartbeat Law…Again! Atlanta, GA — Candi Miller, a 41-year-old mother of three children, learned she was pregnant in the fall of 2022. Candi had several health conditions (high blood pressure, lupus, and diabetes) that needed to be carefully managed by a qualified obstetrician throughout her pregnancy. Unfortunately, Candi reportedly fell prey to fear and trusted a website that provides mail-order abortion pills instead. In 2022, when Candi ordered the drugs from Aid Access, the international organization was using an unregulated distributor in India to ship the pills. It wasn’t until a year...

Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris and her supporters in the media want Americans to believe pro-life legislation and Donald Trump are to blame for the deaths of two Georgia women who died from complications after taking abortion-inducing drugs. But Dr. Christina Francis, CEO of the American Association of Pro-Life OB/GYNs (AAPLOG), asserts that Harris and her surrogates are spreading “dangerous lies” and using the deaths of these two women to promote abortion rights – a central plank of the Democratic Party platform. Harris blamed Georgia’s pro-life law – and Trump – for the deaths of Amber Thurman and Candi Miller,...

If you search “women’s experiences at Planned Parenthood” on Google, you will find mostly positive news articles about Planned Parenthood (with the majority on Planned Parenthood’s website), and stories about “harrowing” pregnancy experiences states that protect preborn children from abortion. However, a look at the Google reviews of individual Planned Parenthood facilities provides an interesting perspective… and tells a far different story. Though strictly anecdotal, these reviews highlight the allegations of former Planned Parenthood patients — that many women have suffered from medical negligence, coercion, and a lack of maternal health services at Planned Parenthood facilities across the country. The...

When media outlets make biased decisions about what stories to cover or not cover, it activates the availability heuristic, a common logical fallacy. That’s why it’s important to rely on data, not anecdotes – especially when it comes to matters of health. The data tell us that maternal health in the United States is far worse than in economically similar nations. This is a serious problem that goes back decades, and it got even worse during COVID. Thankfully, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that we are seeing some improvement. American maternal deaths – defined to include deaths...

CV NEWS FEED // Women who end their pregnancies with abortion pills are significantly more likely to report to an emergency room with severe medical issues than women who have surgical abortions or live births, according to new data primarily authored by a researcher with the pro-life Charlotte Lozier Institute. The research, primarily conducted by researchers from the pro-life Charlotte Lozier Institute, was published in August and compared hundreds of women’s emergency room (ER) visits between 2004 and 2015. The researchers categorized the women into four groups. Three were comprised of women who had had a chemical abortion, surgical abortion,...

Paramedics Provide Advanced Life Support Carbondale, Illinois – On June 10, an employee called from Carbondale Planned Parenthood, located at 200 North Emerald Lane, to request an ambulance for a woman hemorrhaging after a procedural abortion. The Planned Parenthood facility was opened just days before Christmas in 2023 and has added surgical abortions since its opening. Operation Rescue has tracked this Planned Parenthood and other abortion facilities that opened in Carbondale after the overturn of Roe v. Wade, making it a dangerous abortion destination. Mothers in southern states, where unborn babies are protected, are unfortunately directed to the southern Illinois...

Observant sidewalk counselors reported an emergency at a Virginia Planned Parenthood, located at 201 North Hamilton Street in Richmond on April 12, 2024. Operation Rescue secured 911 records for the emergency call made at 11:50 a.m. that day. The Planned Parenthood employee who made the call stated the “patient is currently having (emphasis added) a termination procedure done and, it looks, appears to be a possible uterine perforation” (incorrectly pronounced “preferation”). “Because the caller said the woman was ‘currently having’ an abortion, we do not know if the baby was still alive,” said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman. “We know...

Granite City, Illinois – The Hope Clinic has done it again. In fact, this abortion facility sends more women to the emergency room than any other clinic in Illinois. The late-term abortion clinic is notorious, not only for having one of the highest rates of abortion injuries, but also for using veiled and vague language in their 911 communications. The Emergency: In this new Operation Rescue report from May 22, 2024, a 31-year-old woman was having – according to the caller –”heavier than normal bleeding” after an abortion procedure. Although the staff caller would not specify the cause, post-abortive bleeding...

Rebecca Todd Peters is a professor, author, and Presbyterian Church (USA) ‘Pastor.’ She has been “active denominationally and ecumenically for over twenty-five years.” She represents the PCUSA as a member of the Faith and Order Standing Commission of the World Council of Churches. A lover of all things baby-killing, she also serves on the Clergy Advocacy Board of Planned Parenthood and was recently elected Vice President of the Society of Christian Ethics. It’s unsurprising then that she’s celebrated and tolerated within her denomination. The PCUSA has denigrated to one massive pen for goats, run by spiritual criminals and hirelings, with...

An employee of Access Health Center, more commonly known as American Women’s Center, in Des Plaines, Illinois, called 911 at 1:13 p.m. on November 2, 2023. The 911 records were provided courtesy of Illinois-based Pro-Life Action League. When the dispatcher asked specific questions about the emergency, the caller transferred the call to the abortionist, believed to be Cheryl Chastine. “Hello,” she said cheerfully, as if she was clueless that she was on the line with 911. “Hi, this is the fire department. Tell me exactly what happened,” the dispatcher asked. “Hey, what’s up? So we are doing a procedure, an...

As we start the new year, the Pennsylvania Department of Health has released their annual report on abortion and, once again, it shows more abortions, more complications from abortion, and more problems that Pennsylvania needs to correct. In 2022, there were 34,838 abortions reported in Pennsylvania, the highest number of annual abortions in the last ten years. Here are some takeaways from this latest state report: 1. Over 95 abortions every day in PA in 2022. Over the last five years, nearly 5,000 more babies have been aborted annually (2017: 30,011 | 2022: 34,838). Of note, the 2022 total is...

A video from a YouTube account called “Ivan the Evangelist” was shared by Students for Life America on social media Thursday afternoon and detailed one woman’s horrific experience after taking an abortion pill. Now, users online are blasting Planned Parenthood and the chemical abortion process for its prioritization of killing babies over keeping women out of harms way. “The last abortion I had I actually saw the baby come out,” Desiree, the woman in the video started with. She explained how she went to a Planned Parenthood location and two doctors came into her room and gave her a chemical...

On Wednesday, October 25th, Womens Med Dayton, Dayton’s remaining abortion facility, had another ambulance call to 911. The patient was a 33-year old female experiencing bleeding from a “complicated procedure.” This facility performs approximately 61 abortions every week in Montgomery County, according the 2022 annual Ohio Abortion Report. You can hear the 911 call here. This facility has a long history of 911 calls for “transportation to Miami Valley Hospital.” The facility was cited in 2015 for providing services without proper consent. This call is another example of lack of best practices by this facility. In early October, the Ohio...

A hard-hitting new commercial opposing Issue 1 in Ohio exposes how “safe, legal” abortions are killing women. Pro-abortion advocates are lying in their campaign ads telling voters that Ohio’s Issue 1 will protect “women’s lives.” These ads are filled with propaganda “that doctors need to be able to make life-saving decisions that protect their patients.” In response, Created Equal’s new media buy features a TV ad that debunks these lies by revealing how unregulated abortion isn’t safe for women or children. Video Player VIDEO ON LINK 00:00 00:30 The fact is, if Issue 1 passes, all restrictions and regulations protecting...
