In the October issue of First Things , twenty-two-year-old Lila Rose wrote about her crusade against Planned Parenthood . She tells how she went undercover to two Los Angeles Planned Parenthood clinics posing as a young, scared, pregnant fifteen years old, the victim of a twenty-three-year-old statutory rapist. The Planned Parenthood staff told her, into her hidden cameras: “Figure out a birth date that works.” Lie about your age on the paperwork. Say you are older than you really are. We will give you a secret abortion, and no one will ever know.
Since the videos went viral on YouTube and were seen by millions of people, you’d think that the organization would be more cautious about what they said in the future. But the workers at Planned Parenthood apparently aren’t that bright. In a new video by Rose’s group, Live Action, a Planned Parenthood manager in New Jersey coaches a man and a woman posing as sex traffickers how to to secure secret abortions, STD testing, and contraception for their female underage sex slaves. The counselor even tells them to make their whole operation “look as legit as possible.”

UPDATE: Planned Parenthood has fired the woman in the video.
