State authorities have inspected an abortion clinic in Rockford, Illinois, that had not been checked for 14 years -- and the results were disturbing.
Last June, three investigators spent two days in the clinic. Local pro-life activist Kevin Rilott says what they found "should have had them shut down long ago."
"Their autoclave machine, which is the machine that sanitizes their medical instruments, failed two of four inspections. They also found that this clinic is, by state law, supposed to have a registered nurse on staff -- and for over three years they have not had a registered nurse there," the pro-lifer says.

Local media outlets have reported little about the findings -- but the activist says pro-life prayer warriors will make sure women seeking an abortion know.
"We're going to print up a little brochure and give it to the women who will stop on their way into the clinic and let them know what they're in for in this place. And [we'll] continue to work with the state of Illinois to make sure that they follow through on their findings," comments Rilott.
The report also stated that all three of the clinic's operating rooms inspected failed to insure a sanitary environment.
