CBS 2 NEWS STARTS RIGHT
NOW.
BREAKING TONIGHT, MORE
THAN 2000 FETAL REMAINS FOUND
AFTER THE DEATH OF A WELL-KNOWN
ABORTION DOCTOR. Reporter: WE
BELIEVE THE FETAL REMAINS ARE
HERE, WE ARE HERE AT THE WILKES
COUNTY CORONER'S OFFICE, BUT
THEY WERE NOT DISCOVERED UNTIL
DAYS AFTER THE CONTROVERSIAL
ABORTION DOCTORS DEATH. YOU
DON'T THINK YOU DID ANYTHING
WRONG?
THIS IS THE DOCTOR IN 2014
HEADING INTO AN INDIANA COURT
HEARING.
HE WAS CHARGED WITH FAILING TO
REPORT AN ABORTION HE PERFORMED
ON A 13-YEAR-OLD GIRL IN THE
THREE DAYS REQUIRED BY LAW.
THE CORONER SAID HE DIED ON
SEPTEMBER 3, BUT THURSDAY A
FAMILY ATTORNEY CALLED THE
CORONER, TELLING HIM THAT 2246
MEDICAL RESERVED FETAL REMAINS
WERE FOUND ON HIS PROPERTY IN
UNINCORPORATED WILLOW COUNTY.
HIS HOUSE IS LISTED IN HIS NAME
BUT WE HAVE NOT CONFIRMED WHERE
THE FETAL REMAINS WERE FOUND OR
WHERE THEY WERE STORED.
AT ONE TIME HE HAD THREE
ABORTION CLINICS IN INDIANA.
HIS LICENSE WAS ULTIMATELY
SUSPENDED THREE YEARS AGO, ALL
THROUGHOUT HE SAID HE DONE
NOTHING WRONG. WE ARE ALL
HUMAN BEINGS, WE ALL MAKE
MISTAKES AND WE HAVE TO DEAL
WITH THE CONSEQUENCES.
KLOPFFER'S FAMILY IS
COOPERATING.
AND THERE IS NO EVIDENCE THAT
ANY ABORTIONS WERE PERFORMED ON
THE PROPERTY.
THAT THEY WILL HAVE MORE
INFORMATION ON THIS MATTER WHEN
APPROPRIATE, THERE ARE STILL A
LOT OF QUESTIONS, WHAT WAS THE
DOCTOR DOING WITH THOSE MORE
THAN 2000 FETAL REMAINS, HOW
LONG HAVE THEY BEEN THERE, HOW
WERE THEY BEING STORED, WE DO
