Case dismissed: Kansas court throws out
unfounded charges against pro-life advocate

Police had arrested woman legally sharing message near abortion clinic

OVERLAND PARK, Kan. — A judge dismissed criminal charges Wednesday against a pro-life woman arrested in the driveway of a Planned Parenthood abortion clinic for allegedly blocking traffic entering and leaving its parking lot.  The city alleged that a police officer issued an order to Kafka prior to her arrest to cease her activities, but the officer stated at trial that he observed no wrongdoing by Kafka and did not order her to cease her activities.  Video evidence from the day of the arrest confirms Kafka never prevented vehicles from accessing the clinic.
