Zaremski’s refusal to report rape of 11-year old condemned sisters to years of abuse.

Topeka, KS — A complaint has been filed with the Kansas State Board of Healing Arts, (KSBHA), asking that Kansas City abortionist Sherman Zaremski be disciplined for failing to report the rape of an 11-year old girl that resulted in a pregnancy. Confirmation has been received that the case has been assigned to an investigator.

Operation Rescue investigations discovered that it was Zaremski that gave an abortion to the young girl in Wichita at the now closed Central Women’s Services, then returned her to the care of her step-father, Robert Estrada, who continued to use her and her sister as virtual sex slaves over several years, resulting in a total of 4 pregnancies, including the birth of twins on one of the girl’s 12th birthday.

“Zaremski could have stopped the abuse by reporting her pregnancy to the authorities, but he did not,” said OR spokesperson Cheryl Sullenger, who filed the complaint in her capacity as a private citizen. “Because of his refusal to obey the Kansas child abuse mandatory reporting laws, he condemned the girls to several more years of unspeakable torment. He needs to pay for that.”

Then-Attorney General Phill Kline had referred the girls’ medical records to District Attorney Nola Foulston. Estrada was sentenced last October for the rapes, which were reported to authorities by an adoption agency that had been contacted because of another pregnancy. The girls’ mother, Patricia Estrada, was also sentenced for knowing about the sexual attacks, but doing nothing to stop them.

Zaremski was a plaintiff in the controversial Aid for Women v. Foulston Federal Court case where abortionists sued the state for the ability to be exempt from the mandatory child abuse reporting laws. Zaremski continues to run an abortion mill in the Kansas City area.

Operation Rescue bought and closed Central Women’s Services, the site of the young girl’s abortion, last spring. It is being renovated into OR’s nation headquarters and a memorial to the pre-born.

“I cannot walk into that building without thinking of the young victims of Robert Estrada,” said Sullenger. “We pray the KSBHA will understand the egregious nature of the crimes against those girls and revoke Zaremski’s license for his part in allowing them to continue.”

Los Angeles, CA — The deaths of 12 women at a chain of abortion mills owned by California’s Edward Allred raise questions about the so-called “standards” of clinics affiliated with the National Abortion Federation (NAF).

Family Planning Associates, (FPA), the largest for-profit chain of abortion clinics in the world with branches in Southern California and Chicago, has been responsible for the abortion-related deaths of Deanna Bell, Chanelle Bryant, Patricia Chacon, Laniece Dorsey , Josefina Garcia, Denise Holmes, Susan Levy, Christine Mora, Kimberly Neil , Joyce Ortenzio, Mary Pena, and Tami Suematsu.

“Any other business that had 12 fatalities in a few short years would be out of business and the owners in jail,” said Operation Rescue spokesperson Cheryl Sullenger, who spent two decades sidewalk counseling outside FPA abortion mills. “The NAF wants women to think that their clinics meet some kind of safety standard, when the reality of the situation is that the NAF standards are a sick joke that have cost lives and continue to endanger women.”

The FPA chain is not the only NAF affiliate with a checkered history.

In Florida, a group of NAF abortion mills run by James Pendergraft has been in the news for shoddy conditions and at least two botched abortions resulting in live births. The State of Florida closed five Pendergraft mills last year citing “a flagrant disregard for the laws of the state of Florida and a willingness to endanger the lives and health of pregnant patients.” Two remain closed.

In Wichita, KS, Operation Rescue bought and closed NAF affiliate Central Women’s Services then documented the filthy and unsafe conditions discovered there. (Click here to view a video documenting conditions there.)

Also in Wichita, Women’s Health Care Services, the late-term abortion mill owned and operated by George R. Tiller has been under fire for multiple botched abortions resulting in emergency hospitalization and the abortion death of Christin Gilbert. The abortionists at this NAF affiliate have also been accused of committing illegal late-term abortions.

“Women need to beware of any clinic bearing the NAF stamp of approval. These are predatory operations whose substandard and dangerous conditions prove that they are more concerned about making a buck than about the lives and health of the women they see,” said Sullenger.

“These clinics only offer a dead baby and the risk of a dead or butchered mother in the process. We encourage any woman considering an abortion to instead seek help and support from abortion alternatives organizations listed in their local phone books,” Sullenger said. “If you walk into a NAF clinic, there is no guarantee you will ever walk out. That’s not a scare tactic. That’s reality.”

“Right To Life” chief sides with Planned Parenthood to condemn innocent babies to needless death

PIERRE, SD — As the eyes of the world are set to view tomorrow’s opening of a new movie detailing the riveting and heroic account of William Wilberforce and his fight to end the bloody slave trade, a South Dakota lawmaker fails to capture the lesson Wilberforce taught us.

The Senate State Affairs Committee voted to kill HB 1293, a bill that would have saved almost all abortion-bound children in South Dakota. Ironically the vote to kill the measure was led by a so-called pro-lifer.

Sen. Brock Greenfield, (R), chairman of South Dakota Right to Life, testified as an opponent to the newly crafted ban on abortion along side Planned Parenthood, which also opposed the bill.

Organizations with seemly conflicting agendas, National Right to Life and Planned Parenthood, teamed up to defeat the pro-life measure in South Dakota even though South Dakotans support this version of the bill by a margin of 3 to 1.

The movie “Amazing Grace,” set to open Friday in theaters across America, chronicles how real men of conviction lead society toward moral change. Wilberforce was a model Christian fighting for the rights of the oppressed who eventually succeeded in banning the slave trade in Great Britain. American legislatures would do well to imitate Wilberforce’s commitment and strategy.

“He’s no Wilberforce,” said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman of Sen. Greenfield. “Women and babies have been betrayed by the very person and organization that vowed to protect them.”

“God help us when those who have sworn to protect innocent babies’ give instead their support to those who have vowed to kill them. This is betrayal of the worst kind. I believe that Greenfield and South Dakota Right to Life have forfeited the right to be called pro-life.” Newman continued.

Operation Rescue asks the questions: If South Dakota Right to Life is working with Planned Parenthood to defeat a pro-life bill should they return every dollar back to their donors? Is South Dakota Right to Life guilty of fraud and misrepresentation by aligning with a pro-abortion Planned Parenthood?

Newman said, “Somebody give Brock Greenfield a ticket to see Amazing Grace. After the movie maybe he will be able to scrape the bottom of his soul for the moral courage to change his position.”
