Albuquerque -- Death Threats (12 incidents) and Harassment (100 incidents)

       After a successful political campaign that retired two pro-abortion politicians, pro-abortionists harassed New Mexico pro-lifers in the Albuquerque area with hundreds of obscene telephone calls, including at least a dozen death threats against them and their children.

Albuquerque -- Gross Negligence

       Abortionist David Cohn performed a suction abortion on a 28-week, 2.2 pound unborn baby whom he misdiagnosed as being only 6 to 8 weeks along. The baby was later delivered dead. His license to practice obstetrics or perform abortions in the State of New Mexico was suspended, and he was placed on 10 years' probation. He was originally charged with misdiagnosing the preborn child's age, admitting a patient without giving information with regard to her condition, and lying to the Office of Medical Investigations.
