George Tiller (Part 2)

By 2009, George Tiller had become one of the most hated men in America. Between the never ending stream of protestors outside his clinic and the near nightly attacks on his character on Fox News the pressure on the Wichita based abortion doctor was reaching critical mass. What’s more, three abortion doctors had been murdered in the previous fifteen years. Tiller refused to be cowed however, continuing to provide the women of his community and beyond with the healthcare they desperately needed. It was a decision which would cost him his life.If you want to listen to Crosshairs COMPLETELY ad-free, and help to support the show, then please subscribe to our channel.What's The Story?
