Two of Kline‘s assistants, Ludwig Von Drake and Dick Tracy
The Kansas Supreme Court is now reviewing whether Attorney General Phill Kline should be able to obtain patient records from abortion clinics. This isn’t the only Kline case dealing with medical privacy.
According to Phillip Brownlee, of The Wichita Eagle, September 19, 2005:
“A federal appeals court in Denver heard a request last week by Kline’s office to lift an order blocking the enforcement of his 2002 opinion that all health-care providers — including school nurses, psychiatrists and social workers — have to report to authorities any indications of underage sex, even if it was consensual and between teens. Kline’s argument is that, according to state law, any sexual relations with children younger than 16 is a crime. But health-care providers — which already report possible child rapes — argue that the reporting requirement is an invasion of privacy, and, of particular concern, they worry that it could discourage some minors from getting needed medical services, such as prenatal care.”
Kline has rendered other baseless charges against abortion clinics. So far that all he has done for the state of Kansas,
Does this guy have any credentials? He was a disbarred attorney before he got elected and all he has done since he won is harass the abortion clinics and try to put them out of business. Religious fanatics are the only reason he won the election. Apparently abortion is all they care about and important legal matters are simply ignored.
Is this the kind of abortion clinic surveillance evidence we can expect from Kline?
