PHOENIX, January 5, 2004 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Abortionist Brian Finkel, who was in years past acclaimed as a "national hero" by the pro-abortion movement for his "courageous" stand against pro-lifers, has been handed a 34 and ¾ years sentence for his December conviction on 22 counts of sexual abuse. Finkel was acquitted on 34 counts, including six counts of sexual assault.

Should he serve out his sentence, 54 year-old Finkel would also be put on lifetime probation and ordered to register as a sex offender.

A darling of the pro-abortion movement, Finkel was famous for patrolling his now-closed abortuary in a bullet-proof vest and holstered gun taunting pro-life picketers, calling them "religious racketeers," and "mean-spirited, hate-filled Christians engaged in guerrilla warfare." Reports say Finkel "relished being on the front lines of the abortion battle, terminating more than 30,000 pregnancies in 20 years and proud of it."
