Missouri AG Sues Planned Parenthood Over Alleged Transport of Minors for Abortions
Attorney General Andrew Bailey's lawsuit follows a Project Veritas video claiming illegal interstate abortion practices.
- The lawsuit accuses Planned Parenthood of trafficking minors across state lines for abortions without parental consent.
- Attorney General Bailey alleges a pattern of statutory violations by Planned Parenthood, including the use of moldy equipment and failure to report medical complications.
- Planned Parenthood's attorney argues the claims are based on hypothetical scenarios and heavily edited footage.
- Missouri law bans abortions except in medical emergencies, complicating the legal landscape post-Roe v. Wade.
- A judge has yet to rule on Planned Parenthood's motion to dismiss the lawsuit or require a more definitive complaint.
