1. Applauding
priests who are taking a stand against abortion.
2. Pro-abortion
position of the American Medical Association on the morning-after-pill.
3. David
Ennis, the man who beat up his girlfriend so that she would miscarry
their child that she refused to abort, pled guilty to charges filed against
him. His sentence was 30 years plus 30 years of supervision.
4. Joy
Schepis, who’s physician
boyfriend stabbed her with injections of the feticide, Methotrexate,
when she refused to have an abortion, has given birth to a healthy baby.
5. Three
states have given money they received from a 9 West price-fixing lawsuit to CPCs in their states. When this was challenged, Judge
Barrington Parker ruled that a government may make a value judgment that
supports childbirth over abortion.
6. Abortionist,
Yogendra Shah, who was chief of obstetrics at St.
Elizabeth’s Hospital, has been removed form that position but is still on staff
there.
7. American
abortionists are already skirting FDA guidelines for using RU-486 by using
one-third of the approved dosage to try and cut down on costs. Richard Hausknecht, the medical director for Danco,
the US
distributor of RU-486, has stated that physicians will be using the drug up to

Interview with attorney, Michael Hirsh,
who represented Paul Hill at the Florida Supreme Court.
1. In
1994, Paul Hill killed abortionist, John Britton and his security guard in Pensacola,
Florida.
2. Paul
Hill was denied his Constitutional right to a fair trial by the state and the
court. Example given is of Jack Ruby shooting Lee Harvey Oswald on live
television.
3. Motion
in Limine filed by prosecution and accepted by the
judge that would not allow Paul Hill to use a defense that is acceptable by Florida
law, the Doctrine of Justification. The jury was not aware of this.
4. Judge
found Michael Hirsh incompetent to represent Paul Hill at his trial even though
Hirsh had passes the bar in three states all on the first attempt. The judge said
that Paul Hill, who has no legal training, was competent to act as his own
attorney. The Florida Supreme Court felt that Hirsh was competent to represent
Paul Hill at that level though.
5. The
government was putting on a show trial so it had to take action to ensure that
it won. If they had lost this case, they feared the results.
6. Parallels
to the actions and trials of Jefferson Davis and John Brown are made.
7. Paul
Hill was willing to be executed for the opportunity to put abortion on trial,
but because he was not allowed to explain why he had killed two people, the
public never got a chance to understand.
8. The
jury was not aware that Hill was unable to make a defense.
9. At
about the same time, Collin Ferguson was on trial in New
York for killing several people on a
subway. He was allowed to offer the defense that he was getting signals from
outer space that told him to do it, and he was able to present testimony on a
CIA conspiracy also.
10. Also
at that time, Mark Eason, who’s family owned abortion
clinics in the Miami,
Florida
area, was on trial for killing two of his roommates. Eason was allowed to use
the justifiable homicide defense in his trial, yet in the same state, Paul Hill
was not. Eason claimed to have killed the two men because they complained about
his sloppiness.
11. State
of Florida
denied Life Dynamic’s request to interview Paul Hill because LDI was not a
“legitimate news source.” Florida
did allow Dr. Dobson to interview Ted Bundy while at that same prison.
12. Did
the Clinton Administration have anything to do with the lack of a trial?
13. Life
Dynamics in not defending the actions of Paul Hill, but is stating that he,
like every other American, deserves a fair trial. This is a core-value,
Constitutional issue.
