WICHITA, Kans., July 12 /Christian Newswire/ -- Amid the scandal of criminal charges against the nation's largest late-term abortionist, George R. Tiller is having difficulty finding and keeping office help. Tiller published an ad in the Sunday Edition of the Wichita Eagle on July 8, 2007, advertising a clerical position. "Must be Pro-Choice!" the ad emphatically stated. There appeared to be no other qualifications required for the job.
"It is becoming increasingly harder for Tiller to find new workers," said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman. "Now that he is facing 19 criminal counts for illegal abortions, those that work for him must be wondering if they are going down with a sinking ship, and if Tiller's alleged criminality will implicate them in some way. Anyone new has to be crazy to step into that mess."
Tiller typically employs about a dozen office workers. Operation Rescue has conducted routine prayer vigils in the neighborhoods of Tiller's abortion employees since 2003. Since then at least fourteen of them have quit.
"Tiller, who is reportedly a difficult and demanding employer, has had a heck of a time keeping an office manager. He finally had to promote his bookkeeper after others bailed out on him," said Newman. "Except for the abortionists, none of his staff are licensed medical workers. We can find no evidence that some have even graduated from high school. He gives them two weeks training - that's it - even for the women who assist with the dangerous late-term abortions and other surgeries. It sounds like he's so desperate that he'll hire anyone off the street, as long as they are an avid supporter of abortion.
"Unfortunately, this is something that is not unique to Tiller, but seems to be standard operating procedure for abortion mills across the country. They'll take anyone with a warm body and ice water in their veins."
"We understand from inside sources that the work environment is unpleasant and stressful," said Newman. "One worker complained about a tyrannical supervisor and another described her job reassembling early-term aborted baby parts as 'disgusting.' According to a third source, the stench from the incinerator when the babies' bodies are burned is sickening and disturbing."
"We continue to pray that each and every person associated with Tiller's killing business will repent, renounce child-killing, and turn to a respectable line of work," he said.
