Why was norma mccorvey (jane roe) arrested at sotomayors supreme court confirmation hearing?
Norma McCorvey, formally the “Jane Roe” of the Roe vs. Wade decision — that led to the death of over 50 million children by abortion — was arrested at the Sotomayor hearings for speaking out against child-killing by abortion. Miss McCorvey has become a strident pro-life advocate, calling on government officials to overturn the landmark case that “legalized” child-killing. She was arrested with: Francis Mahoney, Andrew Beacham, and Robert James. All of those arrested “preached” or “prophesied” to the Senators and the crowd that child-killing by abortion must be made illegal again. Sources: http://news.prnewswire.com/ViewContent.aspx?
‘Jane Roe’ arrested for disrupting Sotomayor confirmation hearing 05:52 PM CDT on Monday, July 13, 2009 WASHINGTON – Norma McCorvey – the Dallas woman known as Jane Roe in the landmark abortion rights case Roe v. Wade – was among the protesters arrested today for disrupting the confirmation hearing for Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor. The case that bears McCorvey’s court-picked pseudonym – and that of longtime Dallas district attorney Henry Wade, her legal adversary in the case – has been a central issue in judicial nomination fights for years. But McCorvey herself long ago decided that she regretted her role in the fight to legalize abortion, and has worked with anti-abortion activists as a potent symbol of the effort to overturn the Roe decision. McCorvey, 61, is being charged with unlawful conduct/disruption of Congress, said Capitol Police spokeswoman Sgt. Kimberly Schneider. Read also
