Once again, a pro-life Christian has had to appear in Richmond General District Court to answer bogus charges brought against him. As was expected, once again the charges were dropped.
Those who minister outside Richmond abortion clinics have become used to this harassing cycle in recent years.
Richmond City Police Officer Howard Noyse has made it his mission to threaten and/or arrest those who offer help to women who are contemplating abortion at Richmond Medical Center for Women (abortion clinic) where he moonlights several days each week.
Although repeated pleas have been made to the Mayor, Chief of Police and Police Department supervisors, nothing has been done to stop the repeated abuse.
The latest incident in a long history of abuses by several Richmond Police Officers culminated today with the dismissal of charges against Charles Frederick Neal, a Christian sidewalk counselor. This follows on the heels of two other bogus charges being dropped after the City refused to prosecute the cases.
Life and Liberty Ministries calls upon the new Chief of Police and Mayor to stop these abuses and rein in this out of control Officer.
"It is very disconcerting that City Officials have thus far turned a blind eye and a deaf ear to the many calls for help. For years we have sought relief from this abuse. When will the Richmond City Police Department cease from harassing law abiding citizens? How long must we endure this mistreatment?"
