WICHITA, Ks., July 31 /Christian Newswire/ -- Sedgwick County District Attorney Nola Foulston has issued a statement indicating that the Grand Jury concluded its work and failed to indict abortionist George R. Tiller on charges related to the third- trimester abortion death of Christin Gilbert, who died after Tiller aborted her in January, 2005.

Operation Rescue President Troy Newman released the following statement:

“We believe the lack of indictment by the Grand Jury is the result of corruption and cronyism at the local and state level. Nola Foulston, is a personal friend of Tiller’s and should never have been involved in the investigation in any way. The Kansas Board of Healing Arts, which earlier cleared Tiller in Christin’s death is beholden to Gov. Kathleen Sebelius, who is in Tiller’s pocket due to massive campaign contributions. We will continue to work to find avenues that are not corrupted by Tiller’s blood money until Christin’s killer is finally brought to justice.”

Troy Newman is available for interview at 316-841-1700.
