Germantown, Maryland – On Friday, Todd Stave, the landlord for Germantown Reproductive Health Services where LeRoy Carhart conducts his late-term abortion business, appeared on the Rachel Maddow Show. There, he admitted to being the son of an abortionist and complained that he had received respectful phone calls asking him to stop leasing space to the abortion business.

What Mr. Stave did not mention was that his father, Carl Edward Stave, was the founder of the Germantown Reproductive Health Center abortion clinic and its sister clinic, Prince George’s Reproductive Health Services in Hyattsville, Maryland.

Mr. Stave also failed to mention that his sister, Nancy Stave Samuels, is currently listed as the President of Germantown Reproductive Health Services, which includes the Prince George’s clinic. Mr. Stave and Ms. Samuels serve as trustees for the Norma A. Testamentary Trust that also owns the business condo leased to Germantown Reproductive Health Services.

“Todd Stave is more than an abortion clinic landlord. He is the son of the founder of this particular abortion clinic and the brother of the current clinic director. He’s an abortion profiteer, but it goes beyond that. He is actively protecting the family’s abortion business while misleading the public as to his true connections with it,” said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman.

Germantown Reproductive Health Services offers late-term abortions. The viable babies have their hearts injected with poison and the mothers are sent into labor. Women deliver their dead babies into a toilet or their babies are dismembered during delivery.

Mr. Stave is not the victim he would have us believe.

Stave was involved in an altercation where he attacked and struck a peaceful protester acting within his First Amendment rights on a public sidewalk. The protester, Peter Shinn of Pro-life Unity, who is disabled and wears a prosthetic leg, was doing nothing more that videotaping the protest. Shinn plans to file charges against Stave.

In addition, Mr. Stave recently called the home of Michael Martelli, head of the Maryland Coalition for Life, and threatened his family and his children by name.

Meanwhile, an Operation Rescue staff member was harassed with over a hundred text messages in a 48 hour period by a phone number originating from Stave’s area code. He was reported to the FBI as a possible suspect.

Stave has a history of criminal conduct. In 2006, he was convicted of three counts of selling cigarettes without a license and failure to obtain a trader’s license.

“Stave’s hands are not clean. We pray for his repentance and that he will divest himself of any part of his family businesses that sheds innocent blood,” said Newman.

Bellevue, NE – An electrician made the decision yesterday to cancel his contract for work on a fire-damaged abortion clinic after pro-lifers called and explained to the vendor that his work was enabling abortions.

At first, the electrician told callers that he was not working in the abortion clinic, but was working only in the basement. However, once he learned that the basement was part of the abortion clinic where records and supplies were kept, he halted work.

“He said he considered himself a good Catholic and didn’t want to be an accessory to an abortion clinic,” said Larry Donlan of Rescue the Heartland, and Truth Truck driver for Operation Rescue.

The clinic is one that belongs to the infamous partial-birth abortionist LeRoy Carhart. It was damaged by an accidental fire last month, most likely due to Carhart’s own lack of maintenance on the run-down building in Bellevue, Nebraska.

“This just shows the effectiveness of Abortion Collaborator campaign,” said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman, who first coined the term “abortion collaborator” and pioneered the project. “Once people understand that their work is helping the abortion industry, they often want nothing more to do with it.”

Abortion collaborator campaigns help vendors recognize that providing services for abortion clinics contributes to abortions and makes them culpable for the continued shedding of innocent blood.

“It’s a legal principle as well as a bibilical one. Those who aid and abet share in the guilt,” said Newman.

“We congratulate Rescue the Heartland and appreciate the willingness of this electrician to do the right thing and stop work on the abortion mill. We pray that Carhart’s clinic will never reopen.”

Operation Rescue calls on NDB International to halt repairs on Carhart’s clinic in the interest of saving lives.

Bellevue, NE – Workers attempting to repair fire damage to LeRoy Carhart’s Bellevue, Nebraska, abortion mill were soundly admonished by Larry Donlan of Rescue the Heartland on Friday.

Last month, Carhart’s run-down abortion building was heavily damaged by a fire that officials have determined was accidental. Carhart is well known for his slovenly lack of maintenance on the property, where he has run a late-term abortion business for decades. Construction workers have been renovating the basement area where the fire broke out.

Donlan, who drives one of Operation Rescue’s Truth Trucks, told the workers, “Put down your tools and leave this place. By working here you are collaborating in the murder of countless children!”

Donlan recently suffered a foot injury and limped about on crutches speaking with the workers about their complicity in the shedding of innocent blood.

One African-American worker told Donlan that he should not judge, and that God was a loving God. Donlan asked him if killing babies was a loving thing to do and if a “loving God” would approve of his aiding a killer. The worker said he had nothing to do with abortion since it was the woman, not him, that made the decision. Donlan asked him if this were the mid 1800′s, could he help build slave ships and then claim he had nothing to do with slavery.

Donlan continued to convict the workers, saying, “When you go home tonight are you going to tell your wives that dinner is being paid for with the blood of the innocent?”

The apparent job-site foreman threatened to call the police, but Donlan, who has witnessed outside Carhart’s abortion mill for over 15 years, knows the law, and noticed that the construction workers were illegally parked and had equipment illegally placed in the public right of way. He invited the man to go ahead and call the police.

Workers then put up additional yellow hazard tape that surrounded the hobbling Donlan, which amused him, considering his current state of immobility.

To the surprise of the construction workers, when the police arrived, officers told the workers to move their cars and equipment while Donlan continued his witness unimpeded.

“It is unknown when Carhart’s abortion mill will be reopened, but judging from the photos, it will not be any time soon, and maybe never if NBD International stops construction,” said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman. “Operation Rescue calls on NDB International to immediately halt repairs on the Carhart clinic in the interest of saving lives.”
