On May 31 2009, Scott Roeder killed Dr. George Tiller inside of his church for performing late term abortions. Nearly a year later, Mr. Roeder says that it was his crime but will not plead guilty to manslaughter. Roeder testified:
“I did what I thought was needed to be done to protect the children. I shot him,”
Roeder's lawyers spin a twist, hoping that the jurors would consider Roeders beliefs and oppositions and give him a lighter sentence. However the judge advises the jury not to give him a lesser sentence that what he deserves. How far are people going to take their antiabortionist ideas? And when will this eventually become yet another crisis for the nation?
