Undercover audio exposes stalker tactics used by Texas anti-abortion groups
Audio recordings taken by an undercover activist reveal that a network of anti-abortion activists in Texas are photographing the license plates of patients who use womens clinics in order to track and monitor them. Furthermore, the group is using tax records to identify and locate physicians and staff of the clinics.
The Austin Chronicle reported Tuesday that two groups, NARAL Pro-Choice Texas and Progress Texas released the tapes, which were recorded at the Capitol in Austin. Multiple anti-choice groups were on hand offering instructions to new recruits on how to more effectively stalk and harass abortion providers and their patients.
The recording features excerpts from Keeping Abortion Facilities Closed, a seminar held by the anti-choice groups united under the banner Texas Alliance for Life on August 4.
Karen Garnett of the Catholic Pro-Life Committee of North Texas instructed her fellow protesters and activists to flood the streets around womens clinics so that prayer chains can be on site in front of every abortion facility during all hours that abortions are being performed.
