George Tiller, 67, was shot just after 10 a.m. at Reformation Lutheran Church at 7601 E. 13th, where George Tiller was a member of the congregation. Witnesses and a police source confirmed George Tiller was the victim.
The suspect who killed Dr. George Tiller now are in custody in the shooting death of late-term abortion provider George Tiller. The suspect is currently facing one count of murder and two counts of aggravated assault for threatening onlookers who tried to intervene.
Geroger Tiller has long been a focal point of protest by abortion opponents because George Tiller's clinic, Women's Health Care Services at 5701 E. Kellogg, is one of the few in the country where late-term abortions are performed.
"I am shocked and outraged by the murder of Dr. George Tiller as George Tiller attended church services this morning. However profound our differences as Americans over difficult issues such as abortion, they cannot be resolved by heinous acts of violence." Obama said.
"George Tiller is one of the two doctors in the country that specializes in the very small percentage of abortions performed late in pregnancy (but before viability) done for health reasons, usually because the pregnancy is a danger to a woman's health or life, or because the fetus is dead or dying. George Tiller been shot in both arms, stalked by the attorney general's office under Phill Kline, and charged with the crime of performing a bunch of illegal abortions, for which he was acquitted."
George Tiller, in other words, worked past the constant threats of violence to provide a service to women that few would. Today, George Tiller was apparently murdered for his efforts.
Abortion opponents also questioned then-Gov. Kathleen Sebelius' ties to George Tiller before the Senate confirmed her this year as U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary. George Tiller donated thousands of dollars to Sebelius over the years.
