'Deception' alleged as Illinois abortionist obtains Indiana license

Operation Rescue wants Indiana to take action against an Illinois abortionist, saying the abortionist "has something to hide."

Abortionist Mandy Gittler has closed her Chicago abortion clinic and become a "circuit-riding" abortionist who has worked, in part, for a Chicago Planned Parenthood. In 2012 she was involved in the abortion death of Tonya Reaves.

Following her death, Reaves' family sued Planned Parenthood and Mandy Gittler for malpractice. In January the family settled the case for $2 million, most of which will go to Reaves' surviving son.

Gittler recently applied for and received a medical license in Indiana. However, she failed to indicate she had been sued for malpracive on her Indiana application - something that she was supposed to do under penalty of perjury. In fact, she marked 'no' in the box next to the question that asked her if she had been involved in any malpractice settlements in her career.

Operation Rescue has filed a complaint with the Indiana attorney general's office accusing Gittler of violating the state's administrative code and requesting that her license be revoked. Gittler also does abortions in Michigan and Illinois.
