The Washington Times published my review of Ann McElhinney and Phelin McAleer's Gosnell: The Untold Story of America's Most Prolific Serial Killer
I followed the Kermit Gosnell
murder trial in 2013, which was covered by the local Philadelphia media, but ignored
largely by the national media.
Now journalists and
documentary filmmakers Ann McElhinney and Phelim McAleer offer a book on the
life and crimes of the Philadelphia abortion doctor who was convicted of three
counts of murder by using scissors to sever the spinal cords of babies
delivered alive, as well as various other crimes.
As the authors note, Gosnell
destroyed records and often came in on Sundays without his staff and performed
numerous illegal late-term abortions, so there is no telling just how many
babies he murdered in this fashion and by other means — hence the book’s
subtitle, “America’s Most Prolific Serial Killer.”
The case began, the authors
explain, with a drug bust.
“It wasn’t a homicide case —
until it was. Originally the authorities weren’t investigating murder, or even
illegal late-term abortions. They were just trying to bust a prescription drug
mill,” the authors write. “But they wound up discovering something far worse.”
