Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey has filed a lawsuit against Planned Parenthood Great Plains, alleging that the organization is trafficking minors to other states to facilitate abortions without the consent of their parents.

“This is the beginning of the end for Planned Parenthood in the State of Missouri,” Mr. Bailey said in a statement to announce the lawsuit. “What they conceal and conspire to do in the dark of night has now been uncovered. I am filing suit to ensure it never happens again.”
