Other assorted searches

Somebody wanted information on Barbara Lofrumento. Barbara died during an illegal abortion performed by Dr. Harvey Lothringer at his office in 1962.

Somebody else wanted Albany Medical Surgical Center in Chicago. That's the National Abortion Federation member clinic where Steve Lichtenberg performed the fatal abortion on 13-year-old Deanna Bell. Albany is owned by FPA founder Edward Campbell Allred. Deanna is one of a dozen patients who I know of who died at FPA facilities. The others are:

  • Denise Holmes, age 24, 1970
  • Patricia Chacon, age 16, 1984
  • Mary Pena, age 43, 1984
  • Josefina Garcia, age 37, 1985
  • Lanice Dorsey, age 17, 1986
  • Joyce Ortenzio, age 32, 1988
  • Tami Suematsu, age 19, 1988
  • Susan Levy, age 30, 1992
  • Christina Mora, age 18, 1994
  • Kimberly Neil, 2000
  • Chanelle Bryant, age 22, 2004

    Somebody was looking for Frederick Taussig. He's the source of the notorious bogus statistic of 5,000 to 10,000 maternal deaths a year in the US from illegal abortions, a number he later repudiated. (Abortion proponents tend to ignore that little fact!) Read more here.

    Somebody was looking for self abortions. The fatal cases I have found are here. I look here at the connection between self-mutilation and self-induced abortion attempts.
