Virginia Catholic Charity Under Fire for Helping Teenager Get Secret Abortion

Richmond, VA (LifeNews.com) -- A Catholic charity in Virginia is coming under fire for allegedly helping a foreign teenager in the foster care system to have a secret abortion. Officials with Commonwealth Catholic Charities in Richmond allegedly signed a parental consent form for the abortion, violating state law. The charity apparently was helping a 16-year-old Guatemalan girl whose parents were lost and became a ward of the federal government. According to a Washington Times article, the charity fitted the girl, who already has one child, with a contraceptive device to prevent her from becoming pregnant. After CCC officials learned of the pregnancy, the newspaper indicates they took the unnamed girl for an abortion and illegal signed the consent form that is supposed to be completed by a parent, grandparent or adult relative. The incident first came to light on Friday when the Catholic magazine The Wanderer published a letter from three Catholic bishops to their colleagues with concerns about the situation.

Abortion Teen Helps Charity Catholic

I think what they did was wrong for them to do. They were not in any way shape or form one of this girls legal guardians. I always thought the catholic church was against abortion but it seems to me that maybe I am wrong. I hope that more comes against this charity for stepping over the lines of the law.
