While trolling the news for article topics I came on one, the subject of which is the stuff of nightmares. Philadelphia abortionist Kermit Gosnell has been arrested after a grand jury investigation into his practice. The details of what was uncovered are horrifying! This “Doctor” performed abortions and surgeries in extremely unsanitary conditions all the while ridiculing his patient’s discomfort. One story I read talked about pets and liter boxes being present in the O.R. at the time surgeries were taking place. Unlicensed, under-aged, assistants also participated in operations.

But all of this is merely on top of the real charges. The not- so good “Doctor” is facing third degree murder charges in the death of Karnamaya Mongar, an immigrant from Napal. He allegedly mis- proscribed Mrs. Mongar’s anesthetics. But Gosnell’s offenses don’t stop there. Evidently he has been performing illegal late term abortions for some time. He faces murder charges in the deaths of seven newborns whom he murdered with a pair of scissors. As if it could get any worse, he is suspected in the deaths of hundreds more. And his twisted services didn’t come cheap. He evidently made close to two million dollars as a low rent medical assassin.

Look I as a conservative Anglo- Catholic Christian I detest this “Doctor’s” profession under the best of circumstances. I find the abortion industry (and it is an industry) inhumane and dehumanizing. I don’t care how pretty the flowers in the waiting room or how superficially caring the staff are. But this “physician” is nothing more than a sanctioned serial killed, right down to the ghoulish trophies he kept in jars around his office. In my opinion, this guy is every bit the insane killer Jared Loughner is. He may actually be worse, because while Loughner’s insanity is clear to all, Kermit Gosnell hides his evil behind a mask of titles, education and self righteous justification.

The D.A. in Philly has announced plans to throw the book at Gosnell. In a statement to the press he stated he may in fact pursue the death penalty in the case. We’ll see whether or not the jury convicts in the case. With the preponderance of evidence I can’t imagine that they wouldn’t. At the very least I expect that he will lose his license to practice his macabre form of medicine.
