Irish Filmmakers' Movie About Kermit Gosnell, "America's Biggest Killer": Story of a Doctor Who Goes From Being a Healer to a Murderer Must be Told, Otherwise We're All at Risk"You don't have to oppose abortion rights to find late-term abortion abhorrent or to find the Gosnell trial eminently newsworthy. This is not about being 'pro-choice' or 'pro-life.' it's about basic human rights. The deafening silence of too much of the media, once a force for justice in America, is a disgrace." -Kristen Powers
"You do the math," said filmmaker Phelim McAleer. "Detectives think he killed hundreds, perhaps thousands of babies over 30 years. So he's America's biggest killer." According to the grand jury report, Gosnell killed the babies by severing their spinal cords with scissors. Investigators discovered refrigerators full of aborted fetuses in his offices. Jurors also convicted the 76-year-old of manslaughter after he botched an abortion and killed the 41-year-old patient. In their bombshell new book, Gosnell: The Untold Story of America's Most Prolific Serial Killer, McAleer and his wife Ann McElhinney highlight in graphic detail the abuses that took place in Gosnell's "Women's Medical Society" clinic. The couple told CBN News how they came to investigate the case, which was largely ignored by major media outlets. Being a Voice for the Voiceless One journalist who provided coverage for the trial was Today columnist Kirsten Powers, who criticized fellow reporters. "This is not about being 'pro-choice' or 'pro-life.' it's about basic human rights. The deafening silence of too much of the media, once a force for justice in America, is a disgrace." McElhinney: Attending the Gosnell Trial Was Life-Changing "When I was younger those images that you'd see from protesters, pro-life activists, there were pictures—very graphic images—and I mistrusted them," she said.
"So that changed me." Dirty Little Secret: Abortion Industry Protects Itself, Not Women "The abortion establishment is still protecting the abortion establishment," McAleer said. "When the National Abortion Federation visited the clinic and saw those horrible and disgusting conditions, rather than call the police, rather than report it, they ignored it," he said. "The grand jury—when they did the report—named names, lots of names ... there was one person who got anonymity in that report and that was the person who was the national abortion federation inspector, that person was given anonymity and I think it's a question worth asking, how did that person get anonymity?" said McElhinney. Gosnell's Bizarre Prison Behavior
"The disconnect between reality, the reality of who he is and what he's done, and the way that he appeared to us was staggering." "Kermit Gosnell believes history will vindicate him," said McAleer. "Kermit Gosnell also believes he's going to be vindicated in the present day even though he's serving a life sentence without parole, with no possibility of parole. He tells us he's in training for a triathlon because he's going to do a triathlon when he's released ... he's living in quite a fantasy world," he added. Gosnell also reportedly provided unusual details about his life before prison... "He loves to boast about his travel, how cultured he is," said McAleer. "...We talked about how he'd been to Poland, how he visited Auschwitz. But when we asked him about Auschwitz he used a word to describe Auschwitz that I never heard anyone use before in the history of the planet. He described Auschwitz as 'impressive.'" Hollywood Rejects Gosnell Film But they say that major studios in Hollywood rejected the film because of its controversial subject matter. "We thought, we have a great film here and it has been shown to every large distributor in Hollywood and every large distributor in Hollywood did two things. Number one, they rejected us but number two, none of them said, not one of them said the film wasn't good. In fact, they said, wow, this is amazing but it's just too controversial for us," McElhinney said. They even faced censorship while attempting to raise money on the crowd-funding site "Kickstarter." "From the very, very get-go there was opposition to this," said McElhinney. Eventually, they were able to raise more than two million dollars for production. Meanwhile, the filmmakers from Ireland hope to uncover more dirty secrets within the abortion industry, while remembering the lives of those it has taken. "These children, some of them lived a minute, some of them lived a few hours, but their lives are going to mean something," said McAleer. "We have memorialized their lives. We've described their lives and the fact of their lives are going to cascade now for years in legislation, for years in the culture, for generations to come, and they are not forgotten."
