(The Guardian) Indiana’s attorney general said he will investigate the doctor who provided the 10-year-old Ohio girl with an abortion over whether she properly reported the child’s rape.
Speaking on Fox News last night, Republican Todd Rokita said: “We’re gathering the evidence as we speak, and we’re going to fight this to the end, including looking at her licensure if she failed to report. And in Indiana it’s a crime … to intentionally not report.”
Asked why it was so important that the child’s rape be reported, Rokita replied: “This is a child, and there’s a strong public interest in understanding if someone under the age of 16 or under the age of 18 or really any woman is having abortion in our state. And then if a child is being sexually abused, of course parents need to know. Authorities need to know. Public policy experts need to know.”
