[edit] Abortion scandal

Howard's Friendship Medical Clinic ended up getting included among the seedy abortion mills featured in the Chicago Sun-Times expose, "The Abortion Profiteers." Mason himself was sued for performing the fatal abortion on Julia L. Rogers, who died of pneumonia and peritonitis after Howard poked a hole in her uterus. Evelyn Dudley and Dorothy Brown also died after abortions at Friendship. In fact, I had only known of Howard as a seedy abortionist until somebody searching for him ended up at my blog, and I backtracked their search. I was astonished to learn that Howard had actually had such an illustrious history.

I'll have to go back over my e-notes (which I don't have at this computer) to see what else I have on Friendship. ChristinaDunigan 13:02, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Source, please?

This was in the article: "He also became well-known as a leading abortion provider and was arrested in 1964 and 1965 but never convicted."
