Does Carhart have a friend on the inside?
On February 7, 29-yr-old Jennifer Morbelli, pictured right, died at a Maryland hospital the morning after LeRoy Carhart completed the abortion of her 33-wk-old baby in the Germantown, Maryland, mill at which he worked.
Ironically, the day before Morbelli died the Maryland Department of Health and Mental Hygiene issued licenses to all 17 abortion clinics in the state without ever having inspected them, even though abortion clinic regulations had been enacted in November 2012.
Carhart’s clinic is still operating, but on March 12 DHMH suspended the licenses of three other clinics associated with infamous late-term abortionist Steven Chase Brigham. According to the Baltimore Sun:
Health Secretary Joshua M. Sharfstein said the department is proceeding on the schedule it originally proposed, which called for issuing licenses in early 2013, followed by inspections. He said the system is working as it should…..
Sharfstein said the others [clinics] had no safety issues that would require a shutdown.
Dr. Sharfstein’s system is obviously backward, but this should come as no surprise, since he is a committed abortion proponent who even supports taxpayer funded abortions. Note Sharfstein determined not to shut down Carhart’s mill, even though Carhart had lied on his Maryland license application and had a patient die.
Sharfstein, pictured left, was appointed to his current position in January 2011 by pro-abortion Democrat Governor Martin O’Malley. Before that, Obama pegged Sharfstein as the Principal Deputy Commissioner of the FDA.
Before that is when Sharfstein’s dots to Carhart connect.
From 2001 through 2005 Sharfstein served as health policy adviser to virulent pro-abortion Congressman Henry Waxman. He also served as minority professional staff of the Oversight & Government Reform Committee, where Waxman was ranking member.
Between 1995 and 2003 Waxman voted against Partial Birth Abortion Ban legislation six times, the last two of which came during Sharfstein’s tenure (June and October 2003). It seems obvious Waxman would not have brought a health policy advisor on board who didn’t agree with him on the merits of partial birth abortion.
The PBA Ban was finally signed into law by President George W. Bush on November 5, 2003, but was immediately challenged by Carhart and two others. Carhart had prevailed against a previous PBA ban at the U.S. Supreme Court level in 2000. At that time Waxman went so far as to sign an amicus brief in support of Carhart. The Supremes agreed to hear Carhart’s new case, but this time Carhart lost in 2007.
That Sharfstein carries an affinity for Carhart is speculative, but a friend who worked across the aisle from Sharfstein on the Hill is confident there is a there there.
Furthermore, my friend has an additional theory worth posting:
So Josh is shutting down a few rogue clinics in Maryland. You better believe this is part of a bigger strategy on his part. He’s tight with the Planned Parenthood ladies. They don’t really like their competitors, right? So he snips around the edges a bit… tries to take the heat off the pretty kindergarten lady killed at a clinic his people gave a license to. I feel like it’s one of those “don’t look over here, everything is just fine over here” moments that always made me want to look over there…
Following that line of thinking, when in April 2011 Maryland legislators halted legislation to enact abortion clinic regulations on Sharfstein’s promise to come up with his own, Gazette.net reported:
Planned Parenthood opposed the bill but supports the department’s plan to develop regulations. “We have been talking to the department of health for the last few years regarding regulations,” said John Nugent, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood of Maryland.
Of course, anyone Planned Parenthood trusts is not to be trusted.
Furthermore, a family planning brochure published by Sharfstein’s DHMH lists both the phone number and web address of Planned Parenthood of Maryland as a contact for family planning services.
This looks like another “fox guarding the hen house” scenarios we see so often when it comes to abortion. In this case a late-term abortionist has a friend in a well-placed position who is also a friend to Planned Parenthood.
Jill Stanek is a nurse turned speaker, columnist and blogger, a national figure in the effort to protect both preborn and postborn innocent human life.
Sure he does. All the moon bats from NOW and NARAL…other abortionists. As long as there is a supply and demand abortionists will be free to keep killing . Even iif the mother dies too. So what? You knew death was a risk.
If this were not so then he never would have killed Jennifer and Madison aftter killing Christan Gilbert and her baby.
After Christen and her baby had died he should have been revoked . Had that happened he never would have gotten his blood soaked hands on Jennifer and the countless other babies he managed to kill in between .
What do you call a serial killer who is free to live a cozy life? An abortionist.
What do you call a serial killer who is free to live a cozy life? George W Bush.
“This looks like another “fox guarding the hen house” scenarios we see so often when it comes to abortion.” – sounds more like hens guarding the hen house to me. Allowing anti-choicers to run things would be a ‘fox guarding the hen house’ scenario.
You forgot Obama
Obama the freedom fighter? This topic doesn’t apply to him.
You forgot Rumsfeld.
This is a silly thread.
Whenever reality comes it turns silly
I’m not the one who’s silly enough to be making unproven allegations about Carhart Heather.
What untrue allegations have I made?
I said unproven. In this instance that Carhart killed Jennifer Morbelli. It is yet to be proven true or untrue.
Well she died in his care so who else is responsible ?
She died because of massive internal bleeding . Carhart couldn’t be reached. She wouldn’t be dead had she not gone to Carharts abortion mill. Its simple to find. Run it through your search engine .
Fact…She sought out an abortion at 33 weeks. Fact….She went to Carhart to perform the procedure . Fact…she became very ill after the abortion . Fact…Carhart couldn’t be reached after several attempts. Fact…she’s dead! Whose at fault here? The local police?

“She wouldn’t be dead had she not gone to Carharts abortion mill.” – that’s also unproven.
“Run it through your search engine.” – maybe you should have.
I guess he’s friends with the medical examiner cause of death….natural causes. Are they joking A woman in perfect health has an abortion and dies from massive abdominal bleeding . Maybe natural causes for a botched abortion .
I’m quite sure had Jennifer not had a 33 week abortion she wouldn’t have suffered any natural massive abdominal bleeding .
It says she died of DIC caused by the abortion of a pregnancy. That doesn’t mean that Carhart is automatically negligent, people die from complications of all kinds of surgeries every day without their doctors being negligent.
I do certainly think it’s quite possible to get Carhart for negligence, especially since he tells his patients not to go to the hospital if they have complications but doesn’t answer the darn phone, but it’s not proven yet.
That doesn’t mean squat reality . Shed be alive today had she not gone to Carharts chop shop.
Well probably, I wish she were alive and had never gone there. And I wish Carhart were shut down.
Jack he will skate. This isn’t his first rodeo
Reality im not going in circles tonight. Visited a few sites with cruel things being said about Jennifer. Not my cup of tea to bash a dead woman the way they were.
Not a PL site one of those free for alls. Bashing the husband and Carhat too. Had to get off. Too much cursing and hate directed at Jennifer.
Wish she hadn’t either Jack. May Carharts heart of stone soften
“Shed(sic) be alive today had she not gone to Carharts chop shop.” – you simply do not know that.
Sounds like a ‘spit and dribble’ site Heather, I stay away from them, even facebook.
Yeah I can’t even repeat how vicious.
Well off the watch the first 48 my fav show .
Hi Heather,
Being that Jennifer died of DIC that would be considered a “natural cause”. Whether she would be alive today had she not aborted is speculation. Women die of DIC in childbirth as well. I know because I witnesses just such an horrendous tragedy.
Where Carhart could be nailed is the fact he left town and left no associate to cover for him. Jennifer and her family were on their own. Also his instructions said to call him. Well, heck of a lot of good that does when he’s on the other side of the country.
Also, he wasn’t available to give the ER staff the critically needed information.
Under no other circumstances would this be considered acceptable or ethical behavior by a physician.
Did this lead to Jennifer’s death? In my opinion, strictly from what I am reading, whatever chance Jennifer had was thrwarted by an appalling breach of standards and ethical behavior.
Hi Mary thanks for explaining. I have done 26 years of nursing in LTC oncology hospice and home care. No expert in OB. Anyway we can agree that Carharts after care of Jennifer was sloppy. Ty for the clarification. I guess I was thinking that had she gone to a hospital instead of Carhart and delivered at 40 weeks she would possibly be alive today .
But we do know he killed Christian Gilbert.
And in both cases we know that Carhart couldn’t be reached after both patients became gravely ill.
She was such a pretty young lady. You can see the kindness in her eyes.
She was deceived into killing her own child and that decision may have cost her own life.
God have mercy.
