On April 6, I posted an article about the charges against David Daleiden who was indicted for making undercover videos of Planned Parenthood. Yesterday CBN News posted a follow-up story of this indictment. It seems that the District Attorney who prosecuted the case violated the instructions of the Texas Attorney General.
The article reports:
Last year, Daleiden released undercover footage through The Center for Medical Progress showing Planned Parenthood officials discussing the sale of fetal tissue. CBN News has reported on the story extensively.
Instead of finding the abortion giant guilty of criminal charges, the Harris County grand jury indicted the pro-life activist. He was charged with tampering with government records and using fake identifications to purchase fetal tissue.
Daleiden posted bail last month in response to what his attorneys call bogus charges.
Daleiden’s indictment sparked public outcry from thousands in the pro-life community who argued that the undercover investigations were not criminal.
In the latest twist in the case, the Thomas More Society reports that the court records show Planned Parenthood attorney Josh Schaffer admitting under oath that the DA’s office shared documents and evidence with Planned Parenthood.
The Texas Attorney General had specifically asked the DA’s office not to share the videos with Planned Parenthood.
The article concludes:
“These filings also include evidence that appears to show that the DA’s office worked with Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast to undermine the Texas Attorney General’s independent investigation of that abortion provider,” he continued. “The conduct of Harris County prosecutors in this case is outrageous and illegal. We look forward to pressing our motion to quash this indictment in court.”
According to LifeNews, this is the second time attorneys from Anderson’s office and Planned Parenthood were accused of working together.
Thomas More Society lawyers assert that the National Abortion Federation is fighting “to shut down free speech and to cover-up evidence of the abortion industry’s crimes in aborted baby parts trafficking.”
The indictment of David Daleiden was a total miscarriage of justice. Hopefully it will be quashed.
