Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita said Wednesday that his office is investigating abortion provider Dr. Caitlin Bernard, who told the Indianapolis Star earlier this month that she treated a 10-year-old girl in Indiana because the child was unable to receive an abortion in Ohio.
"We’re gathering the information, we’re gathering the evidence as we speak, and we’re going to fight this to the end, including looking at her licensure, if she failed to report in Indiana. It's a crime to not report." Rokita told Fox News.

In Texas, failure to report suspected child abuse is a bfd. Here's what the Texas Family Code says:
"Sec. 261.109. FAILURE TO REPORT; PENALTY. (a) A person commits an offense if the person is required to make a report under Section 261.101(a) and knowingly fails to make a report as provided in this chapter.
(a-1) A person who is a professional as defined by Section 261.101(b) commits an offense if the person is required to make a report under Section 261.101(b) and knowingly fails to make a report as provided in this chapter.
(b) An offense under Subsection (a) is a Class A misdemeanor, except that the offense is a state jail felony if it is shown on the trial of the offense that the child was a person with an intellectual disability who resided in a state supported living center, the ICF-IID component of the Rio Grande State Center, or a facility licensed under Chapter 252, Health and Safety Code, and the actor knew that the child had suffered serious bodily injury as a result of the abuse or neglect.
(c) An offense under Subsection (a-1) is a Class A misdemeanor, except that the offense is a state jail felony if it is shown on the trial of the offense that the actor intended to conceal the abuse or neglect."
So if this had happened in Texas, the doctor's failure to report could put her in jail for a year and fined up to $4000. If she intended to conceal the abuse, it gets kicked up to two years in state jail (minimum of 180 days) and $10,000 fine. I suspect it is the same or similar in Indiana and Ohio.

She did "report it"....to a reporter, made the rounds of several TV shows.
Media IS "govt" to these people, no need to bother with actual "Law Enforcement"

Funny, I opened my Medical Dictionary this morning to look up the word "ethics" but it wasn't there and the next word where it should have been was "expediency."

That is much of what is disturbing about this atrocity.
All the pro-borts want to concentrate on is the ready availability of abortion, not that there was a dangerous child rapist running loose. The Dr. evidently think that it was important enough to report to law enforcement. If this specimen would rape a nine-year old [she only recently turned 10], this is a depraved pathology and he has been doing this many other times.

This AG better be careful. The abortion industry is powerful, well connected politically and very evil. Looking to arrest one of their "precious" abortion docs for actual crimes, can get some vicious snap back from politically powerful people.
About 15-20 years ago, when evil Kathleen Sebelius was governor of Kansas, we had a very conservative AG who attempted to enforce Kansas laws on late abortions. The KS AG also wanted to enforce the laws like this Indiana AG is attempting to do, Kansas also required reporting of pregnancies of underaged girls. The big abortion doc in Kansas failed to report any all of them, criminal acts.
The Kansas AG at that time tried to obtain records from abortion clinics about very young pregnant girls, since any pregnancy under the age of consent, IIRC, 16 years of age in Kansas, was definitely a rape and the AG wanted to seek out these rapists and punish them, in addition the 'failure to report' crimes that the abortionist was doing. The local DA was controlled by the powerful abortion doc and would not investigate the failures to report, or the underage rapes.
The abortion business was huge money then, and fed a lot of money to the leftist press and the leftist governor's office at that time. The AG, a good patriot who I knew personally when he was a legislator, was hounded by charges of invasion of privacy of young girls and claims of him breaking laws or procedures while trying to investigate these clear rapes,and failures to report them. The whole of the Enemedia piled on, and there were charges of investigation materials being "misused" somehow, it was never clear how, and wholly unfounded charges were filed against the AG for vague forms of 'misbehavior' and 'invasion of privacy' and 'misuse of records' while trying to investigate underage rapes and failures to report them.
The extremely leftist Kansas Supreme Court, all Dem appointees, supported the false charges and the AG was basically hounded out of the state by the abortion industry for trying enforce the laws.
The primary big league abortion doc had a habit of "holding aside" a few pregnant white girls and letting the babies come to term and then placing the babies for adoption....with politically useful and powerful people, including the DA in his county, in Wichita. He used babies for bribes. So, the criminal abortion doc provided a baby to the DA, and she went after the AG with fake charges, and claimed "AG is interfering with my investigation", which was no investigation at all.
Eventually, a citizen shot the abortion doc and killed him, his business was shut down, the AG left the state and lives far away, and Sebelius left the governor's chair to "lead" the ZeroCare massive disaster in Washington, good riddance.
Abortion folks are a hideous, evil lot, and they will work together and do great crimes in league with each other, abusing the laws greatly. That one citizen who broke the law to kill that abortion doc has done a great service for the state, it turns out, spending life in prison. One evil man dead, and the whole mess collapsed. The Indiana AG needs to be very careful.

So, a nine/ten year old has a period? She was ovulating?

If 10-year-olds are being raped, I want the authorities to know so they can do something about it. What kind of person wouldn't report that? I guess the same kind that thinks killing unborn babies is something to celebrate.
