The headline was, to put it mildly, understated: “Pa. probing controversial abortion clinic in Phila.”
What may be going on in Pennsylvania, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer’s Marie McCullough, is that one of the most notorious abortionists in all of North America– Steven Brigham—may have “opened a new clinic in Pennsylvania, even though the state has barred him from doing so, and even though abortion clinics are being scrutinized under a recently enacted state law.”
So who is Steven Brigham? In her story published Wednesday McCullough outlined his track record:
“Public records show that Brigham,
57, has a two-decade history of battling medical boards, regulators, the
IRS, landlords, creditors, and, most recently, criminal prosecutors in
Maryland.
“Not long after he got his
Pennsylvania medical license, he gave it up in a 1992 agreement with the
state. He later lost his medical privileges in New York, Florida, and
California.
“He is now in hearings before an
administrative judge in New Jersey, fighting for his last license. Three
years ago, New Jersey suspended it when he was caught – after a
critically injured patient went to the police – doing what he was
disciplined for in the mid-1990s: starting late-term abortions in New
Jersey and finishing them in another state.”
