Freeing the guilty, punishing the innocent

Freeing the guilty, punishing the innocent January 26, 2016

A Texas grand jury investigating Planned Parenthood for organ trafficking exonerated that organization and instead indicted the pro-lifers who made the videos in which the abortionists talked about selling fetal tissue!  In fact, the grand jury is charging the two filmmakers for trafficking in fetal tissue, since they formed a cover business supposedly seeking to buy fetal organs in order to get Planned Parenthood officials to talk.  The filmmakers could be facing 20 years in prison.

This reminds me of Ben Jonson’s play Volpone, in which the conman is caught in the act, yet in his trial manages to get his victims thrown into prison!

From Harris grand jury indicts pair behind Planned Parenthood videos – Houston Chronicle:

A Harris County grand jury investigating allegations that a Planned Parenthood clinic in Houston illegally sold the tissue of aborted fetuses has cleared the organization of wrongdoing and instead indicted two anti-abortion activists behind the undercover videos that sparked the probe.

Secret videographers David Daleiden and Sandra Merritt were both indicted on charges of tampering with a governmental record, a second-degree felony that carries a punishment of up to 20 years in prison. Daleiden received an additional misdemeanor indictment under the law prohibiting the purchase and sale of human organs.
