PENNSYLVANIA – LifeNews.com is reporting the death of Dr. Kermit Gosnell, the former abortionist convicted of first-degree murder in the brutal killings of three infants born alive during illegal late-term abortions at his notorious Philadelphia “house of horrors” abortion clinic. Gosnell died in prison at the age of 85. He was serving three consecutive life sentences without the possibility of parole plus an additional 30 years on federal drug charges. His cause of death was not immediately released, though he had been in declining health. The Gosnell case highlighted failures in oversight of abortion providers and sparked national debate over late-term procedures and protections for born-alive infants.
