“Planned Parenthood filed a federal lawsuit on Thursday against the Center for Medical Progress, the anti-abortion group responsible for secretly filming abortion providers over a two-year span. The suit, to be filed in a U.S. District Court in San Francisco, charges that the Irvine, California–based activists violated the Federal Racketeering and Corrupt Organization Act, or RICO Act.
The lawsuit is the most aggressive legal counterattack yet by Planned Parenthood in response to CMP's "smear campaign" videos — which purport to show that affiliate Planned Parenthood providers donated fetal tissue for profit — released last July. Calls by Democratic lawmakers for the Department of Justice to investigate the self-described group of "citizen journalists dedicated to monitoring and reporting on medical ethics and advances" went unheard. In August, a U.S. District Court judge blocked CMP from showing videos containing footage recorded at two conferences hosted by the National Abortion Federation. The recordings were made in violation of confidentiality agreements signed by conference attendees.”
