Tom Lawrence and the news staff at Fox 4 are to be commended for their attention to the Tiller tragedy that continues to unfold in Kansas. In an exclusive interview with Dr. Paul McHugh, Fox 4 allowed this 25-year veteran of psychiatry to evaluate and debunk Tiller's claims that he is justified in aborting full-term babies despite state and federal law that bans it.

Using the justification of anxiety and depression of the mothers, Tiller has aborted countless babies at full term. Dr. McHugh has evaluated some of the cases in the investigation and concluded Tiller has no basis for his diagnoses.

We talked with Dr. McHugh this morning. When asked if his analysis was nothing more than a right-wing attack, Dr. McHugh proclaimed he is a registered Democrat and his study of these cases is purely from a professional perspective. Dr. McHugh says he has yet to be contacted by Kansas Attorney General Paul Morrison as part of his "ongoing investigation" of Tiller. We're sure Morrison will make the call any day now...we'll let you know.

Contact Fox 4 and let them know you thank them for covering this important case!
