HOUSTON, July 26, 2016 /
Christian Newswire/ -- Realizing that its deficient indictment against Sandra "Susan" Merritt was bogus, the State of Texas has finally agreed to dismiss its baseless and frivolous charges. The decision today clears Sandra of any criminal wrongdoing. She no longer faces a jail sentence for exposing the truth about Planned Parenthood. The indictment against David Daleiden was also dismissed.
"We celebrate this victory for Sandra Merritt as she did nothing wrong. She exposed the sale of baby body parts by Planned Parenthood and today she has been vindicated," said Mat Staver, Founder and Chairman of Liberty Counsel. "The indictment was politically-motivated and should never have been filed in the first place," said Staver.
Liberty Counsel continues to represent Sandra Merritt in the federal lawsuit filed against her in San Francisco by Planned Parenthood.
Liberty Counsel is an international nonprofit, litigation, education, and policy organization dedicated to advancing religious freedom, the sanctity of life, and the family since 1989, by providing pro bono assistance and representation on these and related topics.
