Kline alleges filth at abortion clinic

TOPEKA - State Attorney General Phill Kline presented materials to legislators Thursday alleging that a Kansas City, Kan., abortion provider operated a dangerously substandard medical facility and even ate fetal tissue.
The allegations about the facilities came during a presentation to the House Committee on Federal and State Affairs.
“It’s a place where no woman, no person, should have to undergo a surgical procedure,” Kline said.
The allegation that the physician ate fetal tissue was included in written materials that Kline presented to the committee. The report came from a Kansas City police officer; the name of the witness he interviewed was blacked out in documents provided to legislators.
The report, prepared for Kline after officers conducted an investigation of an unrelated theft complaint at the clinic, said officers observed “filthy” conditions in some parts of the facility and blood stains on the floor.
The doctor named in the allegations is Krishna Rajanna, who operates the Affordable Medical and Surgical clinic.
He denied the allegations against him and his clinic, particularly that he consumed fetal tissue.
“That’s untrue and a totally, totally made-up story,” he said.
Rajanna said he thinks the attorney general was misled. The doctor said he thinks he is the victim of a political smear campaign staged by abortion opponents.
“They’ve been trying to reduce the number of abortions by doing various things,” he said.
Kline, an opponent of abortion, said he thinks conditions at the clinic should prompt both pro-life and pro-choice legislators to agree to pass a stalled bill that would establish strict regulations and inspection requirements for clinics that perform abortions.
He said abortions are an “invasive surgical procedure” and clinics that perform them should have to comply with rules that govern outpatient surgical centers.
At present, abortion clinics fall under rules that apply to doctors’ offices, which are largely unregulated.
On Thursday, Rajanna opened his clinic to a reporter from the Associated Press. The wire service said the facility appeared generally clean, but a back room was cluttered.
Kline said he thinks Rajanna had cleaned up the operation since the damaging photos were taken.
The allegations against Rajanna are under investigation by the Kansas Board of Healing Arts. The board can withdraw a physician’s license to practice.
Rep. Bill Mason, R-El Dorado, is chairman of the Committee on Federal and State Affairs. He said the report “is one of the most disgusting things I’ve ever read, if that’s true.”
He said he expects Kline’s presentation will spur tougher regulation of medical offices.
“We do have a real disconnect in the inspection (of abortion clinics) and, I guess, doctor’s clinics as well,” he said.

ok all you proabortionists!
you keep telling us that abortion is now “safe” just because so-called “back alley” butchers are able to hang up signs now and take credit cards - but you are noticeably silent when a woman dies of a legal abortion, or a clinic is shut down due to this type of filthiness, or another abortionist is charged with crimes against his patients.
if you were really pro-woman you’d be fighting against these type of activities and instead, be supporting the agencies who actually give women real compassionate and loving help.
abortion mills do not tell women the truth about pregnancy or complications or health risks - they deceive her with proabortion propoganda in order to sell another abortion.

Since the anti-abortion advocates are worried about the conditions at abortion clinics, and since an abortion is a legal, medical procedure, they should be performed in a hospital like all other medical procedures. Then women would be assured safety during abortions. Then anti-abortionists could sleep well at night knowing women are safe.

what dull logic you express. no abortion is “safe”, no matter where it is done. because even if the woman is not rendered sterile, or does not end up with a perforated uterus, or internal bleeding, or some other physical complication, and does not contract breast cancer (abortion is the number one cause in case you didn’t know), then she will most certainly hurt later….emotionally and/or spiritually.
this is to say nothing of the father of the baby, who will also suffer emotionally and spiritually at some later point. (unarguable, the statistics prove it…)
also, shall i mention the emotional and spiritual heartache of those nurses and so-called doctors who participate in the killing…what about them? what about the woman’s parents? her future kids? they will also be affected.
abortion has a ripple effect throughout society, and it is totally negative. each one
affects about eight people in a negative manner.
i suggest you do a little intelligent investigation of the facts before inserting foot in mouth with naive, simplistic commentary on life or death issues.

Charlene,
Abortion always has at least two victims, the mother and her baby…unless, of course, she was sold a false pregnancy test result…(it happens)
One dead, one wounded…sounds like a crime, not a legitimate medical procedure, to me…No legitimate medical procedure intentionally kills an innocent human being, or recklessly endangers another; abortion does both.

HAHAHAH! Way to totally destroy your own credibility with the “cannibalism” story. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot.
