911: Bloody Botched 22-Week Abortion Second for Cleveland Abortionist in 5 Weeks
Contact: Troy Newman, President, 316-841-1700; Cheryl Sullenger, Senior Policy Advisor, 316-516-3034, info.operationrescue@gmail.com; both with Operation Rescue/Pro-Life Nation
CLEVELAND, Nov. 8, 2012 /Standard Newswire/ -- On November 1, 2012, an ambulance rushed a late-term abortion patient to the hospital for the second time in less than 5 weeks from the Abortion Access Center for Women's Health, an abortion clinic in Cleveland, Ohio, operated by Martin Ruddock.
Records obtained by Operation Rescue show that a 30-year old woman suffered lacerations and heavy bleeding after a botched abortion at 22 weeks. The caller indicated she was "bleeding bad" and passing large blood clots larger than a 50 cent piece.
"Americans are largely unaware of the abortion crisis that faces our nation. While politicians discuss red-herring issues such as whether abortion clinics offer mammograms, shoddy abortion mills are hurting and killing women with alarming regularity, and the average man-on-the-street has no idea this is happening," said Troy Newman, President of Operation Rescue and Pro-Life Nation.
"When medical boards and health departments do find out about these seedy back-alley-style abortion operations, often the clinics are closed and the abortionists' licenses are suspended or revoked. Until the media and our political leaders, both liberal and conservative, start to discuss the hidden scandal of rampant abortion injuries and deaths at abortion clinics -- some of which receive millions of dollars in public funding -- we can only expect to see more incidents like this one."
Ruddock was photographed on September 29, 2012, escorting another of his patients to an ambulance while wearing what appeared to be a butcher's apron. That incident involved a 26-year old second-trimester abortion patient who suffered from a high fever and disorientation. During that 911 call, which Ruddock placed himself, he was heard responding with brusque arrogance to the dispatcher who was trying to ask questions about the patient's condition. "Ma'am, I'm a surgeon," Ruddock snapped.
The most recent 911 call was placed by one of Ruddock's clinic workers. Pro-life activists on the scene were unable to photograph the incident. However, the 911 records documented details of the incident.
"Ruddock is either ill-equipped to handle the emergencies that arise from risky late-term abortions, or he is incompetent to do them. In any case, women are being placed at grave risk when they walk into Ruddock's abortion mill," said Troy Newman, President of Operation Rescue and Pro-Life Nation. "His Cleveland 'house of horrors' presents a danger to the public and we ask that the authorities in Ohio take immediate action to close Ruddock's abortion clinic in the interest of public safety."
