Washington, October 11 (RHC)-- In the U.S., Pennsylvania Republican Congressmember Tim Murphy has resigned, after revelations that the vehemently anti-abortion lawmaker had pressured a woman he was having an affair with to have an abortion.
Forensic psychologist Shannon Edwards wrote to Murphy in January in the midst of a pregnancy scare, saying: “And you have zero issue posting your pro-life stance all over the place when you had no issue asking me to abort our unborn child just last week when we thought that was one of the options.”
According to text message records from Murphy’s cellphone, he responded: “I get what you say about my March for life messages. I’ve never written them. Staff does them. I read them and winced. I told staff don’t write any more. I will.”
