July 15: An Indianapolis newspaper reported on July 1 that a 10-year-old Ohio girl went for an abortion in Indianapolis. The girl was a little over six weeks pregnant and it was claimed that she was raped.

Because Ohio has outlawed abortion after six weeks, the girl had to be brought across state lines. Ohio allows exceptions if the mother’s life is in danger. There are no exceptions for rape or incest. 

The story spread across the news and social media. President Biden mentioned the girl in remarks last Friday. 

Some people started to question the veracity of the story. Was the girl really raped? Why wasn’t she identified? Was the story just a political ploy?

Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost, the top prosecutor in his state, took the bait:  “Every day that goes by the more likely that this is a fabrication,” he said. “I know the cops and prosecutors in this state. There’s not one of them that wouldn’t be turning over every rock, looking for this guy and they would have charged him.”

Yost, and others who didn’t believe the story, didn’t appear to know the facts. 

Columbus, Ohio police were informed about the girl’s predicament via a Franklin County Children Services referral made allegedly by the girl’s mother. The rape was documented on the Franklin County Municipal Court Clerk website listing arraignments for crimes.

The reporter that broke the story went to the arraignment and heard the truth. A man, Gerson Fuentes, 27, a Guatemalan illegal immigrant, was arrested and confessed to raping the girl more than once. 

The reporter did her homework. She found the website, She saw the arraignment date. She showed up and saw Fuentes being arrested. 

The big question is why did the girl’s mother defend the rapist when questioned by Telemundo?

Mom told reporters, in Spanish, that her daughter was “fine” and that everything being said about the alleged rapist was a lie, even though the man had admitted to raping the girl at least twice. 

It was reported that mom was living at the same apartment in Ohio as Gerson Fuentes. Was she trying to protect Fuentes? She said that she was not the person who pressed charges. 

And why did the abortionist in Indiana document the father of the fetus as a 17-year-old, a minor?

Reuters reported on July 14  that Indiana’s attorney general, Todd Rokita, is investigating whether the Indiana physician who performed the abortion abided state laws requiring doctors to report the termination of a pregnancy and suspected cases of child abuse.

Rokita is saying that Dr. Caitlin Bernard could face criminal prosecution if she didn’t file required reports on time.

“We are investigating this situation and are waiting for the relevant documents to prove if the abortion and/or abuse were reported,” Rokita’s said in a statement. “The failure to do so constitutes a crime in Indiana.”

However, the reporter that gathered the facts already showed that the doctor was in compliance. 

There’s more to this story than meets the eye.
