PERTINENT QUOTE OF THE SHOW:
Bob Enyart: This 20 year old went for an abortion yesterday at Mayfair Arora. She went with her sister in law. And her sister in law was against the abortion and was trying to talk her sister in law out of it. The abortionist at the abortion mill, they have this laminaria which helps them with dilation and extraction or whatever. ...So they partially inserted [the laminaria] and she changed her mind. ...She wanted to leave. And they didn't want her to leave. And they started lying to her and sort of threatening her
Jo Scott: They told her that her baby would be deformed if they took the laminaria out.
Bob: Which is a lie...
Jo: Flat out
Bob: ...that her baby would be deformed. The abortionist told her that if she tried to leave he would call the police and tell them that she was suicidal so she'd be locked up for 72 hours.
Jo: Which frightened her. And the abortionist, I don't think, was a man.
Bob: Okay, a woman. And then, someone in the abortion clinic physically blocked the door so the 2 of them couldn't leave.
Jo: Well actually the sister in law was on the other side of the door and grabbed her sister in law's hand, the one getting the abortion and tried to pull her past the man blocking the door and he would not let her through.
Bob: He wouldn't let her through. I mean, you're not allowed to do stuff like that! But this is typical, not that that happens every day, but the bizarre things that happen in abortion clinics...
Jo: Unbelievable. And I called a policeman and asked him if they could do that. And he said absolutley not. It's false imprisonment.
Bob: Yeah, false imprisonment. But because it's an abortion clinic, pretty much the cops and the courts don't care. Whatever they do is fine. So, but we're going to persue this?
Jo: Yes.
Bob: And the girl has changed her mind and the baby is saved.
