US abortion doctor killer given life in prison
AN anti-abortion activist who murdered one of America's few late-term abortion providers was sentenced on Thursday to life in prison in a case that galvanized both sides of the bitter US debate over abortion.
Sedgwick County District Judge Warren Wilbert said 52-year-old Scott Roeder would serve a minimum mandatory life sentence without the possibility of parole for at least 50 years.
Roeder was convicted in January of first-degree murder for shooting to death Wichita, Kansas abortion provider George Tiller.
Tiller was one of a few U.S. providers of abortions on fetuses past 20 weeks of gestation. Roeder admitted to stalking the doctor for months before shooting Tiller in the face as the doctor attended church on a Sunday last May.
Roeder told the court that he had to kill Tiller to save unborn babies.
