Update:FBI investigates mail fraud committed against pro-life group


Susie reported in (Prolifer)ations April 6 about the "at home abortion kit" mailer presumably sent from the Pro-Life Action League to scores of pro-lifers and pro-life groups across the country.

The report, which ran on the 9 o'clock news, gave some great background on the fraud and gave Ann [Scheidler] time to explain why the hoax is disrespectful to everyone involved - even pro-choice women obtaining abortions!...

at home abortion kit.jpgThe mailer markets 1 at-home abortion kit for $400 or 3 for $1k. They are advertised to "break down the fetus into bio-waste in a mere ten minutes... [to] be disposed of down the toilet, down the drain, or into a compost heap because it is completely safe for the environment... up to the eighth month of pregnancy," according to Corrina at PLAL.
The mail originated from Carol Stream, IL, a western suburb of Chicago. PLAL is located on Chicago's north side.
