Texas lawmakers sign letter asking for criminal investigation into abortionist accused of killing babies born alive

The state of Texas isn’t letting the “Texas Gosnell” case of abortionist Douglas Karpen fade away. Twenty lawmakers in the Lone Star State have signed a letter asking for a full-scale criminal investigation of the doctor accused of illegal abortions that rival Kermit Gosnell’s House of Horrors.

Led by District 61 State Representative Phil King, Texas lawmakers sent a letter to officials asking for a full criminal investigation. Life Dynamics, who produced this shocking video of three of Karpen’s former employees admitting their participation in the deaths of many babies born alive during abortion procedures, then killed in Karpen’s office, says Rep. King requested the raw, unedited video from these interviews.

As a result, King and 19 other lawmakers sent official letters to Lt. Richard Kleczynski with the Homicide Division of the Houston Police Department; Ms. Mari Robinson, executive director of the Texas Medical Board; and David L. Lakey MD., Commissioner of the Texas Department of State Health Services. In the letter, King writes:

The Gosnell case has opened many eyes to the reality of what is happening behind the innocuous-looking clinic signs. Because of the Gosnell case, the reality of the gravity of the criminal acts is waking up clinic workers to speak now. Mark Crutcher, Life Dynamics president, said:

Indeed, the comments from the workers who are daring to speak reveal more than most can imagine. Below is background information and excerpts of the video that spurred King and the lawmakers to request a full investigation. The comments from clinic workers are powerful and horrible. All eyes are on Texas officials now to see how they respond to this request.

Here are a couple of excerpts from the video. CLIP 1:
