The abortionist responsible for the "House of Horrors" in Philadelphia was sentenced on Monday to 30 years in prison for illegally dispensing prescription drugs.

Kermit Gosnell, 72, was found guilty this spring of first-degree murder in the deaths of babies who were born alive. He was also found guilty of involuntary manslaughter in the death of a pregnant woman.

"In Philadelphia and across the nation, the abortion lobby routinely pushes safety concerns and comprehensive women's health care aside for the sake of 'choice,'" said Susan B. Anthony List President Marjorie Dannenfelser. "This hasn't gone unnoticed by some who have seen firsthand the damage done to women inside America's abortion clinics."

Gosnell delivered live babies in the third trimester and then killed them by cutting their spinal cords with scissors.

"Women across the country are suffering at the hands of unscrupulous abortionists – some just as brutal as Kermit Gosnell — and yet, where are all the feminists?" Dannenfelser asked. "Although the state of Gosnell's facility was known by abortion industry leaders Planned Parenthood and the National Abortion Federation, it was federal drug agents that first exposed the 'House of Horrors.'"

The abortion industry claims to support "women's health care," she said.

"But their campaign against meaningful regulations of clinics and abortionists should give every American pause."
