Planned Parenthood

A Kansas pro-life activist hopes a new district attorney in her home county will continue to investigate and prosecute the notorious abortionist George Tiller. Phill Kline is the outgoing State Attorney General in the Sunflower State, but he has recently been tapped for a new job as district attorney for Johnson County. It is unclear what impact this will have on Kline's investigation of Tiller and area Planned Parenthood facilities for the concealment of child rape and illegal late-term abortions. Pro-life advocate Cheryl Sullenger of Operation Rescue says her group is hopeful that Kline's change of office will allow his pursuit of justice in this matter to proceed. "It gives us more options as far as the prosecution of the crimes that the abortion clinics have allegedly committed," she notes, "because the Planned Parenthood that's currently under investigation in the Attorney General's Office is in Johnson County. So that would give Phill Kline jurisdiction to continue his investigation." As the current Kansas Attorney General, Kline could also file charges against Tiller and Planned Parenthood before he leaves that office on January 8, 2007.
