Police have posted a surveillance camera at a notorious abortion clinic in Rockford, Illinois.
Local pro-life warrior Kevin Rilott tells OneNewsNow it was pro-life demonstrators who requested that the city set up the camera.
"There have been a number of incidents happen at this abortion clinic," he shares. "[In one] a pro-lifer was assaulted -- and the abortion clinic itself has 12 video cameras covering every square inch of the block around there. But when the police went to get the video from the clinic, for some reason they [claimed they] just forgot to start all 12 of their cameras that morning."

"The young woman was afraid to talk," says the pro-life activist, "and they asked the clinic for the video of what happened -- and of course, that morning they forgot to start their video cameras again."
Rilott contends that in that process, the abortion clinic is covering up crimes. He adds that abortion clinic workers have accused pro-lifers of doing things Rilott claims they have not done.
The police surveillance camera is mounted high on a pole and will be operated 24 hours a day, every day of the year.
