An attorney representing Dr. Caitlin Bernard, the doctor who provided an abortion for a 10-year-old rape victim from Ohio, has filed a tort claim notice against Attorney General Todd Rokita.
INDIANAPOLIS — An attorney representing Dr. Caitlin Bernard, the Indianapolis doctor who performed an abortion for a 10-year-old rape victim from Ohio, has filed a tort claim notice against Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita.
It comes after Bernard's lawyer filed a 'cease and desist' letter against Rokita after telling Fox News he would investigate whether she failed to follow proper reporting procedures. The report, provided by DeLaney, states the abortion was performed on June 30. It also shows the abortion was reported to the Indiana Department of Child Services and was received by the Indiana Department of Health on July 2.
Later, IU Health, where Bernard practices, issued a statement saying a review found Bernard complies with patient privacy laws. Rokita said his office would still investigate Bernard regardless."Mr. Rokita’s false and misleading statements about alleged misconduct by Dr. Bernard in her profession constitute defamation per se. The statements have been and continue to be published by or on behalf of Mr. Rokita and the Office of the Attorney General.
