A Philadelphia jury has found late-term abortionist Kermit Gosnell guilty of murdering three of four babies in his capital murder trial.

He is also guilty of involuntary manslaughter in the 2009 abortion death of Karnamaya Mongar, a 41-year-old legal immigrant who died when his untrained staff administered an overdose of sedatives.

The jury found Gosnell guilty of murdering Babies A, C, and D. Gosnell quipped Baby A, who was photographed by one of his employees, Andrienne Moton, was big enough to “walk me to the bus stop.”

What’s next?

Now Gosnell awaits sentencing, which could include the death penalty (which, by the way, would do nothing to help advance the culture of life).

How has/will this trial impact the abortion debate going forward?

I hate to be a pessimist, but I’m not convinced that it will have a major impact in the long run. Perhaps we will see some more investigations into some of the more shady abortion businesses in the country, but, for the most part, I think people still do not associate Kermit Gosnell and the horrors that went on in his practice with mainstream abortionists or abortion facilities (if they know about him at all).

Perhaps I will have more thoughts on this in the future, but today I am driving back home after spending a few days with family in Ft. Lauderdale. In the meantime, please be sure to check out my previous post — Gosnell: It’s Not Just a Story About Abortion
