Abortion is murder, plain and simple. No matter how many ways someone tries to rationalize it, it’s still murder.
Which makes the punishments for people that do the illegal version of what is essentially legalized murder should be all the more severe.
However, an abortionist who was found for over a dozen contained of aborted baby remains in his car as well as stolen equipment was sentenced to just eighteen months of probation and a fine of just under eight hundred dollars.
Judge Michael Servitto of Macomb County Circuit Court in Michigan delivered the sentence to Michael Arthur Roth, 75 – now known as the “trunk abortionist.”
The probation term was agreed upon earlier by Roth and Servitto, reports Macomb Daily.
Roth entered a plea of “No Contest” to three felony counts of larceny from a building.
He had an accomplice steal drugs and medical equipment used for abortions from his former employer, abortionist Angel Ojeda, who operates the Eastland Women’s Center in Eastpointe, Michigan.
Right to Life of Michigan says the sentence is a mere “slap on the wrist.”
“It’s outrageous that a man with a long record of violations can get off with so little for three felony convictions,” said Right to Life of Michigan President Barbara Listing.
In late September 2015, the discovery of the contents of Roth’s trunk came about haphazardly after he hit a man with special needs, critically injuring him. During the search of his car, as police were investigating the accident, they discovered the aborted baby remains in containers and the medical equipment. Fentanyl, a sedative, along with Midazolam, used for anesthesia, and six prescription bottles of antibiotic Ciprofloxacin – with no labels – were also found in the console of the passenger compartment.
Roth has a history of performing illegal abortions in women’s homes.
Right to Life of Michigan has documented some of his violations.
He was also disciplined in 2002 for prescribing drugs without a license, and then again in 2004 for violating patient consent laws.
The abortionist was also accused of falsifying medical records and performing illegal late-term abortions.
The only solace that one can probably take from such a lenient sentence is that at his advanced age he is nearing the hour where he will have to answer to his maker and all the poor babies for what he did.
