Patients (Victims?) of Dr. Kermit Gosnell
Inspired by Anne's prompt to think about local groups, I'm interested in speaking for the women who sought late-term abortions from Philadelphia abortion doctor Kermit Gosnell. He is currently facing charges for the murder of a woman who died of an overdose of anesthetics prescribed by Gosnell and for the murders of seven viable babies killed after live births. It is believed that he killed hundreds of live babies over the course of his 30-year practice. This issue has raised a lot of questions about abortion laws and accessibility. What made these women turn to Gosnell? Do they have anything in common demographically? In this case, their status as women (in particular, pregnant women) relates directly to the kind of abortion science/technology they are able to receive. For instance, I find it moving that the woman who died was a refugee from Bhutan who is thought to have lived in the US for a mere 5 months prior to her death while Gosnell is estimated to have made $1.8 million in the last year.
