Title: KANSAS ABORTION DOCTOR MURDERED AT CHURCH

WICHITA, Kansas (AP)- Media reports say that abortion provider Dr. George Tiller has been shot and killed at his Wichita church.

Tiller has been among the few U.S. physicians performing late-term abortion. His clinic has repeatedly been the site of protests for about two decades.

He was acquitted in March of misdemeanor charges stemming from procedures he performed, but moments after the verdict the state's medical board announced it was investigating allegations against him that are nearly identical to those the jury had rejected.

Prosecutors had alleged that Tiller had in 2003 gotten second opinions from a doctor who was essentially an employee of his, not independent as state law requires, but a jury took only about an hour to find him not guilty of all 19 counts.

Tiller, who could have faced a year in jail for even one conviction, stared straight ahead as the verdicts were read, with one of his attorneys patting his shoulder after the decision on the final count was declared. His wife, seated across the courtroom, fought back tears and nodded. The couple declined to speak to reporters afterward.

Tiller, 67, has claimed that the prosecution was politically motivated. An attorney general who opposed abortion rights began the investigation into Tiller's clinic more than four years ago, but both his successor, who filed the criminal charges, and the current attorney general support abortion rights.

Tiller has been a favored target of anti-abortion protesters, and he testified that he and his family have suffered years of harassment and threats. His clinic was the site of the 1991 "Summer of Mercy" protests marked by mass demonstrations and arrests. His clinic was bombed in 1985, and an abortion opponent shot him in both arms in 1993.

Media reports say that abortion provider baby killer, Dr. George Tiller, has been shot and killed at his Wichita church. There. Fixed.

I won't shed any tears over the death of a murderer. While I believe he should have been tried by a jury and executed for his crimes it would be hard to find a panel of jurors who haven't been so dumbed down that they would vote to convict a self-confessed killer. He didn't get anything he didn't deserve, that's for sure.

He didn't deserve any 'kangaroo justice'.

He got exactly what he begged for.

I hope this puts some serious fear back into the butchers' minds...

I don't know that he begged or wished for it but he got more justice--for that moment at least--than he ever dispensed. He brutalized and tortured the most innocent of all for money. And we both know where he will be spending his time.
