Slain Abortion Doctor’s Clinic Reopens
PENSACOLA, Fla. — The clinic where Dr. David Gunn was slain during an abortion protest reopened quietly Monday to make appointments for abortions.
No demonstrators were present at the Pensacola Women’s Medical Services clinic. The leader of Wednesday’s protest said he planned to return Thursday.
Clinic administrator Brianne Dorsey declined to say what day abortions would resume.
“What we are wanting to do here is try to get business back to normal as much as possible for Dr. Gunn’s sake,” she said. “This is what he would have wanted us to do.”
Dorsey said security would be increased, but she declined to elaborate.
A physician has agreed to work temporarily in Pensacola and a permanent replacement is being sought, Dorsey said.
