BREAKING: PRO-LIFERS FOUND GUILTY; FACING 11 YEARS IN FEDERAL PRISON FOR PEACEFUL SIT IN
Today, six defendants in the Tennessee FACE trial were found guilty by the jury today on all counts: violation of the FACE Act and "conspiracy against rights". Sentencing has been scheduled for July.
Caroline Smith, Executive Director of the Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising said today, "It is an immense privilege for these courageous Rescuers to be able to speak for the preborn in federal court. It is an honor to be able to use your body to protect the oppressed from the oppressor. We will not have shame. What is shameful is the DOJ’s insistence to violate free speech rights and spend enormous amounts of money to attempt to lock up these human rights activists for 11 years, some of whom are elderly, some of whom are parents, some of whom are young people just trying to get their lives started. The unborn are people who have a right to be Rescued, and we will not stop Rescuing until the murder ends."
PAAU continues to work towards efforts to repeal the draconian FACE Act, more information can be found here.
