Anti-Choice Activist David Daleiden Turns Himself in, Rejects Plea Deal
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Two anti-choice activists behind the secretly filmed, heavily edited
videos of Planned Parenthood officials have turned themselves in to
authorities and posted bond. David Daleiden and Sandra Merritt were
charged in connection with videos that were edited to accuse falsely
Planned Parenthood of profiting off donations of fetal tissue. Last
week, a grand jury in Texas tasked with investigating Planned Parenthood
instead decided to indict the anti-choice activists. Daleiden's attorney
has said he will reject a proposed plea deal.
