PJM: A 48-year-old father and Catholic pro-life activist who was raided by the FBI and arrested for supposedly assaulting an abortion worker was cleared of federal charges of violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act on Monday. While the FBI continues to ignore Joe Biden’s illicit hoarding of classified documents, it aggressively targeted Mark Houck. Fortunately, in this case, the feds did a big FACEplant.
A jury deadlock delayed the decision, but Houck was ultimately acquitted of both charges of violating the FACE Act. That’s the first good news Houck’s family has gotten since the September 2022 FBI raid and his arrest. “A Pennsylvania federal grand jury indicted Houck for allegations that he assaulted an abortion clinic volunteer, Bruce Love, in Philadelphia in September 2022,” The Daily Caller explained. “Federal officials claimed that Houck violated the FACE Act by using ‘force with the intent to injure, intimidate, and interfere with anyone because that person is a provider of reproductive health care.’” But the jury found that wasn’t the case.
Houck pleaded not guilty to the charges. Both he and the 40 Days for Life legal counsel said Houck pushed Bruce Love away while defending his 12-year-old son from verbal abuse in October 2021. Furthermore, the legal counsel said the FACE Act only applies to an altercation over abortion, which was not Houck’s case (he was contesting Love’s verbal abuse of his son), and that the FACE Act does not apply to volunteers like Love. The abortion volunteer also approached Houck down the street from the abortion clinic, not just outside the clinic. more
God continues sending the answer to all the world’s problems.
Stop aborting them.
The FBI knows that the charges alone are enough to ruin your life.
Thank you ever so much MITCH! Mitch “sweated blood’ to get “Bush Republicans’ to confirm Garland as A.G.!
The FBI is one of the tools of Satan. No decent person would be a part of the FBI.
