WASHINGTON, (christiansunite.com) -- Yesterday, a grand jury in Barnstable County, Massachusetts, issued an indictment against abortionist Rapin Osathanondh in the death of Laura Smith.Laura Hope Smith was just 22 years when she died during an abortion committed by Rapin Osathanondh last year. Her mother, Eileen Smith, sought to bring justice for her daughter and shed light on the details and circumstances surrounding her death.
A grand jury investigation revealed details suggesting the scope of Dr. Osathanondh's negligence. For example, a Sheriff's Deputy in a neighboring county supplied Dr. Osathanondh and his staff with CPR training but backdated the session to a date prior to Laura's death, knowing full well that someone had just died at the clinic.
Wendy Wright, President of Concerned Women for America (CWA), said, "Laura deserved better than how she was treated by this abortionist and others who helped to cover up his misdeeds. Abortionists are not above the law. We are grateful for officials who enforce the law against abortionists who harm women."
Tammy Mosher, State Director for CWA of Massachusetts, said, "This is an overwhelming breakthrough. This is a true testimony to what one woman, filled with God's grace, can do in a devastating situation. It is saddening that this success comes at the expense of Laura's life. I hope this will be a wake-up call to every woman and man to understand that a baby is not the only life lost in an abortion."
Eileen Smith, Laura Smith's mother, said, "I am ecstatic to hear such great news. Nothing will bring my daughter back but it is comforting to know that justice is being brought for her death. I hope this will make other abortionists take notice. I pray that I am an example to other mothers and that I will not stand alone in my crusade. Please join my voice."
