Patriot Brief
Dobbs ended Roe, but abortion extremism accelerated in states expanding abortion access.
Ohio doctor accused of secretly drugging girlfriend to force an abortion.
Case exposes dangers of unchecked abortion culture and medical abuse of power.
The overturning of Roe v. Wade was a historic correction, but it did not end the moral crisis surrounding abortion — it merely exposed it. What this case out of Ohio reveals is how quickly “abortion rights” rhetoric can slide into outright criminality when cultural guardrails are removed.
A medical resident, entrusted with patient care, is accused of secretly administering abortion drugs to a woman who explicitly did not consent. That isn’t “choice.” It isn’t “health care.” It’s coercion, assault, and a grotesque abuse of medical authority. The fact that such allegations are unfolding in a post-Dobbs environment where abortion has been constitutionally protected in Ohio should give everyone pause.
This isn’t about politics anymore — it’s about power. When abortion is treated as an unquestionable good, any resistance becomes something to be overcome rather than respected. Dobbs returned the issue to the states, but it also revealed how deeply broken the culture around abortion has become. If this is what “reproductive freedom” looks like, Americans should be asking harder questions — fast.
From Western Journal:
When Roe v. Wade was overturned in the aftermath of Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization in 2022, pro-lifers understandably rejoiced.
But while Dobbs was undoubtedly a milestone win for the pro-lifers, it’s also not the total victory they were hoping for.
While some states, like Texas and Louisiana, adopted new pro-life laws regulating abortion almost immediately post-Dobbs, other states, like Ohio, went the opposite direction and codified abortion into their state constitutions.
And those sorts of decisions appear to be emboldening the worst impulses of pro-abortionists.
WTOL-TV is reporting that a University of Toledo Medical Center surgical resident was indicted on felony charges by the Lucas County Grand Jury for a litany of heinous allegations.
Dr. Hassan-James Abbas, 32, is accused of secretly administering abortion drugs to his girlfriend — who’s also a patient.
Abbas was indicted on six felony charges in total: abduction, a third-degree felony; tampering with evidence, a third-degree felony; unlawful distribution of an abortion-inducing drug, a fourth-degree felony; disrupting public services, a fourth-degree felony; identity fraud, a fifth-degree felony; and deception to obtain a dangerous drug, a fifth-degree felony.
The alleged victim’s attorney told WTOL that they may still pursue further charges.
“We are aware of the grand jury indictments today against Hassan Abbas,” the attorney told the outlet. “We are relieved that the criminal process has finally begun.
“We are not closing the door on future indictments as this case unfolds.”
The woman, identified by the Ohio Medical Board as “Patient 1,” told WTOL she has a protective order against Abbas.
The medical board took swift action against Abbas in light of these heinous allegations.
According to WTVG, the State Medical Board of Ohio suspended the medical license for Abbas.
