FULL TITLE: Sheriff: Investigate Planned Parenthood That Didn’t Report Rape of Teen, Allowing Man to Rape 18 Other Girls
A county sheriff wants state agencies to probe the Planned Parenthood abortion business and determine why it purposefully did not report the rape of a teenage girl that it saw as a customer, allowing the rapist to target other teen girls.
Planned Parenthood abortion clinics have come under fire countless times over the years for not reporting cases of statutory rape to authorities as required by state law. Earlier this month, in Arizona, officials says the abortion giant failed again to provide the proper report to authorities about a victim of a young man who is a serial rapist.
arizona2Not only did Planned Parenthood intentionally fail to report the rape but, in so doing, it allowed the rapist to rape as many as 18 or more teenage girls, authorities say, making it so the abortion company is partially responsible for victimizing them as well.
The Arizona Republic has more on the potential investigation into the Planned Parenthood abortion company:
The Pinal County Sheriff’s Office has asked two state agencies to investigate a claim that a Planned Parenthood clinic in Tempe refused to report evidence of a suspected teen rape.
That allegation, brought by a parent of an accuser, surfaced in a sheriff’s report as part of an investigation involving an 18-year-old high-school student who officials suspect is connected to a series of reported sexual assaults on teenage girls.
Tyler Kost is set to appear in court today to face charges in that assault and a string of others dating to 2009, when Kost was 13 years old. He faces 27 counts of sexual assault, sexual conduct with a minor and sexual abuse of a minor.
plannedparenthood3bOn Wednesday, a grand jury added a new charge when it indicted Kost on a charge of sexual conduct with a minor following allegations made by a 14-year-old girl earlier this month. She said Kost attacked her on a couch at his San Tan Valley house while they watched a movie and his parents were home, investigators said. It’s unknown when the alleged attack happened.
Kost is accused of raping two other girls in the wake of a Planned Parenthood visit in early January by one of his accusers.
On May 5, the Sheriff’s Office asked the Arizona Department of Health Services to look into Planned Parenthood’s handling of a 15-year-old girl who claimed Kost had raped and impregnated her. On April 17, the girl’s mother told detectives that clinicians said they “did not want the hassle” of reporting the assault, according to a police report filed in court.
Then on May 13, Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu wrote a referral letter to state Attorney General Tom Horne, asking for a separate investigation.
“One of the victims and her mother has made criminal allegation against the Planned Parenthood in Tempe,” Babeu wrote.
According to news reports, documents obtained from the Pinal County Sheriff’s Office allege a counselor at a health clinic intentionally withheld information about an alleged rape from law enforcement personnel, months before others came forward to stop a Poston Butte High School student from attacking more teenagers. Tyler Kost, 18, is accused of raping or molesting at least 18 girls, most of them fellow classmates at Poston Butte High School. He is being held without bond in the Pinal County jail. In forensic interviews with Sheriff’s Office sex crime detectives, a girl who says she became pregnant after Kost raped her last year visited a Planned Parenthood clinic with her mother on New Year’s Eve. According to the report, her mom told the staffer about the sexual assault during the visit. “The counselor intentionally miscoded the assault as a consensual encounter,” the PCSO report states. “The counselor told them that they did not want the hassle of having to report the assault to law enforcement as they were a mandatory reporter.” That’s a violation of Arizona law, which requires all suspected sexual abuse incidents be reported to law enforcement. Planned Parenthood denies it did anything wrong, according to an official statement the abortion business released. In Illinois, the state now requires abortion centers to join legitimate medical facilities in reporting cases of statutory rape to authorities in order for young girls to be protected. That’s something Planned Parenthood opposed. In Ohio, a lawsuit in which Planned Parenthood was found to have violated an Ohio informed consent law has been “resolved and dismissed,” according to the Alliance Defense Fund allied attorney who filed the suit. ADF-allied attorney Brian Hurley represents the parents of a girl who, at age 14, was brought to a Planned Parenthood clinic for an abortion by the 22-year-old soccer coach who impregnated her. Earlier this year, a pro-life organization that conducted an undercover investigation in 2002 released additional tapes showing staff at hundreds of abortion centers across the country covering up statutory rape. Life Dynamics released tapes from some of the 813 Planned Parenthood and National Abortion Federation centers it calls across the country. The group placed the calls from Texas, where it is legal to record a phone conversation without the consent of the other party. in the phone calls, an actress portrayed a 13-year-old girl who claimed her 22-year-old boyfriend impregnated her and that she wanted an abortion to keep her parents from finding out.
Also, previously, Live Action footage showed three centers in southern Virginia, a Perth Amboy, New Jersey abortion business and a Planned Parenthood center in Richmond, Virginia all having staffers helping the alleged sex traffickers find information on how to obtain abortions without facing scrutiny and get STD testing for the girls.
A Planned Parenthood staffer in New Jersey has already been fired, New Jersey officials are looking into a shoddy abortion center Planned Parenthood referred to in its video, and the Virginia attorney general has received the full footage of the Richmond Planned Parenthood expose’. All three of the new videos clearly show staff willing to aid and abet the sexual trafficking and exploitation of minors and young women and the videos, Lila Rose of Live Action says, provide more evidence of a clear, disturbing pattern of gross misconduct by Planned Parenthood.The videos have a Roanoke, Virginia abortion facility staffer suggesting the sex trafficker consider going to the health department instead of taking the girls he is vi
Probably won’t happen. Government officials have a habit over ignoring abuses of law at PP.

Pinal sheriff seeks reviews of Planned Parenthood claim
Can I ask why the sheriff isn’t taking the lead on a statutory rape investigation; why leave it to the whims of another ExecBranch bureaucracy?
Excellent point.
New Term: “Politically Skeerd”
To be fair: if mother knows her daughter was raped, and mother does not report incident to police, then why is she complaining that a PP staffer said it would be “a hassle” to report?
This article implies that Tyler has been forcing himself on girls for five years, and nothing has been done, presumably because he was a teenager. This is what a culture of teen fornication gets you.
The chance that he'll be convicted, in the absence of contemporaneous physical evidence, is almost zero.
Unless one of the girls had a rape forensics I have to say you are correct.
If he’s 18 now, he’s an adult. Maybe they’ll get him on the next one, if she and her parents go straight to the police.
And maybe they’ll nail the local PP for failure to report.
I believe that, like hospitals have to report gunshot wounds, PP is bound by law to report rape and other sex crimes they are aware of.
