DAILY WIRE
— Journalists Who Exposed Planned Parenthood’s ‘Baby Body Parts’ Trade Found
Guilty – Phelim McAleer
https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-journalists-who-exposed-planned-parenthoods-baby-body-parts-trade-found-guilty
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Peter
Breen, a lawyer for Mr. Daleiden, said the judgement is a direct threat to
undercover journalism in California and across the country. “Undercover
Journalism now comes with a $2 million price tag,” he said. Mr. Breen blamed
Judge William Orrick’s directions to the jury for the verdict. “The judge
should have told them that Mr. Daleiden’s filming was protected by the First
Amendment. Instead, he told them the First Amendment is no defense, which is
outrageous and not the law. When you have a series of unfair rulings, you can’t
expect a fair verdict,” Breen said.)
THOMAS MOORE SOCIETY
— Thomas More Society Will Fight Multimillion Dollar RICO Judgment in David
Daleiden’s Baby Body Parts Exposé Trial
http://www.standardnewswire.com/news/4991215836.html
(FROM THE PRESS RELEASE:
“This lawsuit is payback for David Daleiden exposing Planned Parenthood’s
dirty business of buying and selling fetal parts and organs,” declared
lead Thomas More Society defense attorney Peter Breen. “We intend to seek
vindication for David on appeal. His investigation into criminal activity by
America’s largest abortion provider utilized standard investigative journalism
techniques, those applied regularly by news outlets across the country.”
“David’s findings revealed practices so abhorrent that the United States
Congress issued criminal referrals for Planned Parenthood, and numerous states
and elected officials have moved to strip it of funding,” continued Breen.
“Rather than face up to its heinous doings, Planned Parenthood chose to
persecute the person who exposed it. I am fully confident that when this case
has run its course, justice will prevail, and David will be vindicated.”)
