Lawyers representing undercover investigator David Daleiden and others who helped uncover the truth about Planned Parenthood harvesting and selling aborted baby body parts have appealed a court decision finding the investigators guilty of 10 counts, including racketeering.

Thomas More Society attorney Peter Breen, one of the lawyers who served on the investigators' defense team, said, "The legal theories that Planned Parenthood employed in the case against David Daleiden could be used by any entity or politician or person against an undercover journalist who was exposing wrongdoing, whether it be corrupt politicians, whether it is those who are abusing animals -- anything. They can use these same legal theories against undercover journalists."

The verdict Daleiden faces, if nothing is overturned, includes $2.3 million in compensation to Planned Parenthood for security upgrades and reputation management services. It paid for these services after the investigators released videos of abortionists discussing how they harvest organs from aborted children.
