This just in! Anti-abortion activists who lied their way in to being able to surreptitiously film Planned Parenthood talks have been charged with 15 felonies in California. The films, which supposedly showed evidence of selling of fetal tissue, have since been widely discredited.
State Attorney General Xavier Becerra announced the charges Tuesday against David Daleiden and Sandra Merritt. The two operate the California-based Center for Medical Progress.
The allegations said the pair filmed 14 people without their consent between October 2013 and July 2015, most of them in San Francisco and Los Angeles counties. They were also charged with criminal conspiracy.
Becerra said they used a fictitious bioresearch company to meet with women's health care providers and covertly record them.
Felon Charges for Two Who Secretly Filmed Planned Parenthood
I’ve googled to find more coverage of this but all the articles I’ve found have the exact same story as the Associated Press. I expect to see more on this tomorrow. Meanwhile, big applause for California’s Attorney General Xavier Becerra!
