fuckyeahfeminists:rhrealitycheck:Our latest in-depth investigative piece reveals that for decades authorities let a rogue abortion provider continue to harm women despite numerous warnings from legitimate doctors. It echoes the recent Gosnell case in which legitimate providers also worked to no avail to close down an illegal provider. Since the early 1990s, public records show, Brigham’s patients have suffered emergency hysterectomies, severe bowel injuries, severed ureters, and sweeping lacerations to the uterus. Over a period of two decades, Brigham has been barred from practicing medicine in at least six states, sued by his landlords and business associates, and even served jail time for failing to pay taxes. And yet today, Brigham remains in control of a network of 15 abortion clinics in four states, and there appears little that most state authorities are able—or willing—to do about it. Read more about Dr. Brigham —>This is so important as we see more abortion restrictions under the guise of “women’s safety.“ However, we see that anti-choicers only care about “safety” if it involves restricting reproductive rights. Antis try to say we cover up rogue providers because that’s the “reality" of abortion - but it isn’t. It was pro-choicers who were blowing the whistle on this man for the past 20 years. -- source link
