John Britton and James Barrett in 1994.

days after the Slepian shooting; since then, there have been 655 such bioterror threats made against
abortion providers. None of the "anthrax" in these cases was real.

containing a white powder to 554 clinics. On December 3, 2003, Waagner was convicted of 51

“The benefit of having been a women’s health care provider for 99 years, and to being somebody
who's been there in the lives of one in five American women, is that when people come after Planned
Parenthood, people tend to not like that, and it actually has the opposite effect,” Laguens said.
“More people send money, more people ask what they can do to help, more people come
to us for health care.”
