Three pro-life protesters sentenced for abortion clinic sit-in
Sentencing still awaits an 89-year-old concentration camp survivor who fights unrelentingly for the unborn
While it’s received relatively less media attention than other atrocities of the Biden administration, the quiet persecution of pro-life protesters over the last four years has served as a shocking reminder as to just how ideologically weaponized the federal government has become.
Three pro-life activists recently became the latest to be sentenced for a 2021 sit-in at a Mt. Juliet, Tennessee abortion clinic after being charged with Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act violations.
The National Catholic Register reports that James Zastrow, Eva Zastrow, and Paul Place were sentenced to 90 days home detention over the role they played in the blockade of the clinic entrance, which they did as an attempt to rescue unborn children from a cruel fate at the hands of the abortionist’s tools.
Eva Edl, an 89-year-old communist concentration camp survivor, has also been charged over the incident, but her sentencing has been delayed until later this month.
The charges arose following a federal investigation into the incident. In April, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Tennessee stated that the activists “violated the FACE Act by using physical obstruction over the course of several hours to interfere with the clinic’s employees and a patient, because the clinic was providing, and the patient sought, reproductive health services.”
As Life News recently highlighted, the federal government has been far less vigilant in investigating the hundreds of violent attacks on pro-life pregnancy centers that provide resources and support for pregnant women.
The violent Antifa-style activists that claim responsibility for many of the attacks accuse the pro-life pregnancy centers of the crime of encouraging women to choose life for their babies.
Meanwhile, the federal government has weaponized the Clinton-era FACE Act to disproportionately prosecute activists who use nonviolent resistance to try to prevent heinous crimes against humanity from being committed by abortionists.
It has never been more abundantly clear that the ruling elite will stop at nothing to further the radical abortion agenda and bulldoze over anyone who stands in their way — even regular, everyday Christians who simply want to see babies live.
Lord, have mercy on us, and deliver our country from this wickedness!
