dr. gosnell. >> good evening. charges include eight counts of murder, seven of them are first-degree murder and could bring the death penalty. those are the charges involving the babies who were allegedly born alive. the 8th murder count is a third-degree murder count involving the overdosed death of the 41-year-old patient. >> woodruff: and this all stemmed as we said from investigators coming into the clinic a few years ago. they were actually looking for something else. >> yes, indeed. they were responding, we think, to a t about drug, prescribing of prescription drugs including oxycontin. he was apparently one of the more high-volume prescribers in the state of pennsylvania. the raid was intended to examine that. allegedly was freely writing prescriptions for addicts and drug dealers, et cetera. but what the f.b.i. and other federal and state authorities stumbled upon when they were there was that abortions were going on that evening. they were expecting to arrive at the clinic in the evening and find that the

dr. gosnell. just a few days ago, more than 70 members of congress sent the letters to the head of all the major networks asking why they're not giving fair coverage to this child. i think we all recognize if dr. gosnell used an ak-47 instead of a scap pell, the media coverage -- scalpel, the media coverage would rival a natural disaster but yet a peep because it happened to be an abortion doctor who was performing abortions. this is one of those untold stories in our country that we all need to stand up for, mr. speaker. that's why we're here today. we're going to continue to stand up for the lives of the unborn. and for their rights. i yield back the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman's time has expired. for what purpose does the gentleman from arizona rise? >> mr. speaker, today i join my colleagues to express my disgust and anger at the barbaric actions of dr. gosnell. the facts of this case are gutwrenching. as a father, a catholic, as a health care provider, i believe

dr. gosnell's lawyer is saying.non bream is live. >> the defense team wrapped up its portion of the closing arguments. there is a recess underway before the prosecution gets back to the jurors. there has been lot of discussion about exactly what happened inside that clinic and jurors will soon have their own decisions ahead of them. for years dr. kermit gosnell ran a very successful abortion clinic in west philadelphia, so successful, that one of the witnesses who also worked there and is now himself facing jail time said it was, quote, rain fetuses, even if that is accurate, gosnell's attorney reminded jurors this case is not about whether or not he was an abortion doctor, which is legal, but about whether or not gosnell committed murder. mcmahon said in his entire career, he's never seen a presumption of innocence trampled upon the way it has been in this case. he also told jurors that about witness testimony, the babies were born alive in his clinic and then killed, mcmahon said this, quote, if you think that bab

years this company had which by the way is better than the inspections of that abortion clinic for dr gosnell so that you get into that so that's a genuine honor and we can agree on that but this is not about that you know maybe it should be the case or das on our side so i'll cross the both ok so you are saying we should have more big government inspecting medical clinics is well i'll agree with you that medical clinics absolutely that's of it that's basic i don't know about the fertilizer industry at we first of all big deal is politics yeah you know i was here with your mother know a lot about a lot of our allies that are being around we make it first we don't know what happened i mean it we don't know at all what happened so we can't really make and we do know is that this this particular fertilizer factory had stored on site multiples of what tim mcveigh used to blow up the federal building and they were not. authorized i don't know i don't know i mean again what we're talking us of that only talks about life and limb and property damage i don't problem bad that be checked out how much i

dr. gosnell which i said he wouldn't. cross-examination. he couldn't get experts to testify on his client's behalf. >> what's his high water mark. what does the defense have to do prove that there is at least a questionable doubt whether or not any of the babies were actually born with a heart beat? is that what he is looking for? >> with respect to the count of the babies to say that there is reasonable doubt as to whether or not the babies were born alive. so he he is going to from when i was in the courtroom with the medical examiner on the stand. he kept hammering the medical examiner saying you cannot say to a reasonable degree of medical certainty that those babies were born alive. you can't say it about baby a and b went through all of them. >> they were not viable. they did not take a breath, by the way that is not an appropriate legal way to even, you know, kill a baby. these aren't abortions. these were done outside this isn't the right way. the women were drugged, the babies were drugged. >> bob: can you imagine going home and ex

dr. gosnell i ask you why did you have to ? their spinal cords when they were alive if they were not born -- when they were born if they were not alive? it is disturbing to be in there. >> so hard to sit through it i'm sure and listen to it. one of the things we talked about on the show is whether or not there should be more cameras in the courtroom or if cameras in the courtroom actually hurt a case. in this situation where the descriptions were so graphic and the testimony is so hard to listen to, do you think it would have been a good idea for cameras to be in the courtroom in this case? maybe there would have been more coverage of the story? >> although this would have been very difficult for some people to watch, you would have the ability to choose and to see it. it is that important. i think you have to be courageous and fearless when it comes to babies being slaughtered like that. that was happening at this particular clinic. if it saves another baby's life because another clinic is shutdown, i do think it is important.
