Chicago, IL – The Near North Planned Parenthood abortion facility located on North LaSalle Drive in Chicago, Illinois, recently called 911 for a woman suffering heavy bleeding after an abortion. On November 19, 2019, Planned Parenthood used a Voice over Internet Protocol (VOIP) to call the Intrado Emergency Call Relay Center, which, in turn, placed the call to the 911 exchange. It took about a minute to accomplish the transfer – a minute that could have been saved if a landline had been used to dial 911 directly. “When women are bleeding out at abortion facilities, every minute counts, and...

A 26-year-old woman is suing Planned Parenthood after she was left alone following insertion of an intrauterine device (IUD), and fell and broke her neck.

Castro went to a Planned Parenthood facility on LaSalle Drive in Chicago, Illinois to get an IUD inserted. “Following the insertion of the IUD, Morgan felt dizzy,” the lawsuit reads. “Morgan...

Tonya Reaves has been dead for three years. As the anniversary of the passing of this beautiful 24-year old African-American approaches on July 20, 2012, it seemed appropriate to link to a report we published last year based on the sworn deposition of Mandy Gittler, who conducted Reaves’ fatal 16-week abortion at a Planned Parenthood facility in Chicago, Illinois. The deposition was taken as part of a wrongful death lawsuit filed by family representatives on behalf of Reaves’ only surviving son. After Gittler’s incriminating statement in which there were many inconsistencies and much blame-shifting, Planned Parenthood settled with the family...

A leading pro-life group has obtained a copy of Tonya Reaves’ autopsy report that it says shows beyond a doubt that the 24-year old woman died from three major complications during a botched second-trimester abortion suffered at a Chicago area Planned Parenthood abortion clinic on July 20, 2012.

The autopsy report is seven pages in length but it took two months for it to be released publicly, despite requests from OR...

Democrats care so little about minority women that they allow unlicensed facilities to kill them. The old civil rights leaders will protest when someone shoots a black man but do nothing when a doctor in an unlicensed health facility kills a black woman. Nothing better demonstrates the hypocrisy of President Barack Obama than the fact that unlicensed medical facilities are allowed to [mis]treat women in his hometown of Chicago. When a black man dies a violent death black leaders like Rev. Jesse Jackson and Rev. Al Sharpton descend on the location and ask for an investigation while sometimes alleging that...

The negligence of Planned Parenthood appears to be a contributing factor in the tragic death of 24 year old Tonya Reaves.

The family of Chicago native Tonya Reaves received no condolences from President Obama. The Windy City’s black clergy held no prayer vigil in her memory. Its civil rights activists staged no protest at the site where the young black woman was killed last Friday. That’s because Tonya’s death was not considered by Chi-Town’s black community to be a “hate” crime. Because the 24-year-old mother-to-be died at the hands of a Planned Parenthood abortion doctor. The final day of Tonya’s life began with a visit to a Planned Parenthood “clinic” for a second-trimester abortion. An autopsy revealed that she bled to...
