24th August 2024
A pro-life activist who was arrested for quietly praying outside of an abortion clinic has been paid approximately $17,000 USD from the West Midlands Police in Birmingham, England, according to Fox News.
After the arrest she filed a claim accusing the police of false imprisonment, assault and wrongful arrest. She was detained for allegedly violating a Public Space Protection Order, the police said at the time.
The women, UK March for Life Director Isabel Vaughan-Spruce, said: “Clearly, I’m delighted to have this, but there’s almost a bit of déjà vu. While I’m saying I’m delighted, I feel vindicated.”
