Eighteen-year-old Janice Marilyn Foster (identified on some documents as Janet Foster) underwent an abortion at the hands of 37-year-old Dr. Richard Neal at Valley Doctors Hospital in North Hollywood, California on September 11, 1971. Janice's abortion had been a "therapeutic" abortion approved by the hospital committee, as was required at the time. Neal reported that he'd estimated the pregnancy at 12 weeks and performed what he thought was an uneventful suction abortion.

Janice's brother-in-law reported that she was very weak and sleepy when he picked her up at the hospital. After returning home, Janice suffered abdominal pain, and called Neal on September 14. He told her he'd see her the next day. Janice felt ill, so she went to bed early.
At around 2 a.m., Janice experienced hot and cold flashes for about twenty minutes, then went into convulsions. Her brother-in-law called for emergency services. Police and paramedics found Janice lying in bed with what appeared to be pus in her vaginal area. On the way to the hospital medics attempted attempted to revive her, to no avail; Janice was pronounced dead on arrival at 3:55 am.
The autopsy found that Janice's heart and lung sacs contained serous fluid, and there was frothy tan fluid in her respiratory track. Her uterus was boggy and the placenta was still attached. Janice's uterus also contained "approximately 20 cc. of red-brown purulent and foul-smelling liquid with similar odor and color to an exudate on the endometrial surface."
Also in Janice's uterus was a "macerated, lacerated and purulent male fetus of about 19 weeks gestation. This fetus measures 14.5 cm. in crown-rump length, shows lacerations in the shoulder area, evisceration of the bowel through an abdominal laceration, and destruction of the skull and facial structures."
Janice's death attributed to septicemia due to "incomplete abortion, therapeutic, septic."
An LA County grand jury indicted Neal on a felony manslaughter charge in Janice's death. His first trial ended in a hung jury on March 24, 1976 after the four days of deliberation. The second trial ended in a hung jury on November 1, 1976 on the fifth day of deliberations.

Veteran pro-life investigator Kevin Sherlock asks people of good will to help him have Planned Parenthood prosecuted for profiteering from the rapes and incests of underage girls many thousands of times each year.
Sherlock has pulled the police records of hundreds of cities and has pulled the child protective services records of multiple states to prove Planned Parenthood staffers are violating mandated reporting laws designed to protect girl victims. But there is more to be done. Sherlock will make sure more and more evidence gets to federal and state prosecutors who care about protecting girls from abusers and profiteers.

Sherlock has talked to many girls and young women who trust him. Their stories and the forensic evidence shows most of them undergo pill abortions or humiliating invasive surgical abortions due to fear or ignorance or pressure or coercion. He treats the girls or women carrying children or devastated from their abortions as friends and neighbors in his home town, not afterthoughts.
Thank you for doing what you can to help girls and fight sexual predators and rape profiteers.
