Notorious abortionist LeRoy Carhart, who made headlines for the death of Jennifer Morbelli<\/a>, whose uterus he ruptured after he committed a late-term abortion<\/a> on her. There was widespread grief and outrage over Morbelli’s death, but she wasn’t the first patient he killed — and this death went almost entirely unnoticed<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Christin Gilbert was a young woman with Down syndrome, a Special Olympian who loved sports, especially softball, in which she earned a gold medal. In 2004, Gilbert was sexually assaulted, and became pregnant. Her parents took her to Women’s Health Care Services in Wichita, Kansas: George Tiller’s abortion facility, where LeRoy Carhart was working as an abortionist.<\/p>\n

In 2005, Gilbert went to see Carhart, who began the late-term abortion by delivering a fatal shot of digoxin to the heart of her baby. He inserted laminaria into her cervix, and sent Gilbert and her family to a hotel to wait. The next day, on their way back to the abortion facility, Gilbert delivered the body of her dead baby in the van.<\/p>\n
