Signatures demanding the convening of a Grand Jury to investigate George R. Tiller in the third-trimester abortion death of Christin Gilbert will be presented to Sedgwick County, KS after a Petition Presentation Ceremony that will be held at noon at the Sedgwick County Administration Building on Friday, April 7.
Petition Presentation Ceremony
WHEN: Friday, April 7, 2006 starting promptly at Noon, and lasting for approximately 20 minutes.WHERE: Outside the County Administration Building located at 525 N. Main in Wichita. [Map]
WHY: We will be formally presenting the Justice for Christin Petitions to the Sedgwick County Authorities so the process of verifying signatures may begin.
The county will have 60 days after the required signatures are submitted to convene the Grand Jury.
A grassroots Justice for Christin Coalition launched the petition effort on January 13, 2006, on the one- year anniversary of the death of Gilbert, a 19-year old Texas Down Syndrome girl, who died at Wesley Medical Center in Wichita, after complications from a botched third-trimester abortion received at Tiller’s abortion mill were apparently misdiagnosed. Coalition representative Cheryl Sullenger says that the group has gathered over three times the number of signatures required by law.
