DID YOU KNOW Abortion Activists Face Lawsuit After Kicking, Shoving and Harassing Peaceful Pro-Lifers, Tom Ciesielka, 2/17/20, lifenews.com
Pro-life advocates in Bristol, Tennessee are under attack, and the Thomas More Society is intervening on their behalf. In January 2020 the not-for-profit national public interest law firm helped file multiple petitions for orders of protection against members of a radical pro-abortion organization. The offenders have harassed and threatened numerous pro-life individu-als outside of the Bristol Regional Women’s Center abortion facility in recent months. The aggressors have recently directed their attacks on Erika Schanzenbach, a peaceful pro-life witness and sidewalk counselor. Now, with the help of the Thomas More Society, Schanzenbach is fighting back, going to court to get protective orders against her most egregious abusers. Thomas More Society Counsel Michael McHale explained that the of-fenders have often sought out Schanzenbach for harassment wherever she stands, even when she remains across the street from the abortion facility to avoid confrontation. The offenders subject Schanzenbach to a variety of abuses, including surround-ing her and blocking her from view with large, open umbrellas; licking her arms; following her very closely wherever she walks – even back to her vehicle hundreds of feet away from the abor-tion facility; stealing and destroying her leaflets; and hurling profanities, taunts, and obscene gestures directly in her face. “These actions are blatantly illegal, and they are unacceptable in a civilized society,” McHale said. “Everyone has the right to peacefully advocate their beliefs on public streets and sidewalks without being bullied into silence.”
Schanzenbach has been on the receiving end of harassment, abuse, and stalking by Denise Skeen, along with Denise’s adult daughters, Alethea and Rowan. Each is named as a respondent in petitions for court orders of protection. Also named is Cheryl Hanzlik, who on multiple occasions has attempted to cause per-manent hearing damage by pointing a bullhorn blaring loud po-lice siren sounds directly into Schazenbach’s face. The case will return to court in April 2020. Schanzenbach’s legal team will present video evidence and live witness testimony demon-strating the ongoing abuse against her. “Ms. Schanzenbach has been terrorized while exercising her freedom to peacefully ex-press her opinion,” McHale declared. “She has been stalked, threatened, and frightened, while attempting to share life-affirming alternatives with abortion-minded women – something that she is fully within her Constitutional rights to do,” he added. “We expect the court to protect Ms. Schanzenbach to the full extent of the law.” Read the full story at lifenews.com.
