Call to Decision

On January 15, 2008, at a revocation hearing in Iowa City, Iowa Judge Karen Egerton ordered sheriff’s deputies to take Donna Holman to jail. Egerton ordered Donna Holman to get a psychiatric evaluation, and follow psychiatric advice (i.e. take prescribed drugs).

Over 40 supporters came to Iowa City in support of Donna Holman, many more wrote this judge on Donna’s behalf. Those in attendance were outraged as Donna Holman was handcuffed and escorted out of the courtroom. The judge read from a back issue of Missionaries to the Pre-born Iowa newsletter that Donna was refusing probation. The MTP newsletter was not part of the court record.

3 supporters were arrested or cited for “blocking the sidewalk”
when 2 fe-he-male police officers arrested them on the public sidewalk. These were the same 2 cops who framed Donna Holman at Planned Parenthood. Adrian Horien and Ron Teller were randomly selected for bogus charges of “Blocking the Sidewalk” citations. Later, Bob Braun was arrested for purportedly blocking the sidewalk. He was taken to the county jail with additional bogus charges of resisting arrest. An anti-abortion sign was stolen by a male officer working with these fe-he-male cops.

The group marched to the jail where Donna Holman was being processed. We set up our signs where the female prisoners could see them out the windows of their pods. Many of the prisoners waved at us as we chanted “Life yes, abortion no, let Donna Holman go!” We also went to the front of the jail where male inmates were being kept. We were greeted with enthusiastic waves from the prisoners.

At 11:00 a.m. we split into 2 teams. One team covered the 4 corners of the busy intersection 2 blocks north of the courthouse. Courthouse employees had to pass aborted baby pictures as they went to lunch. Another team set up signs and banners on 2 pedestrian walkways over Iowa City’s busiest intersection.

After the group broke for lunch they returned to the courthouse to confront the courthouse employees with pictures of aborted babies as they were leaving for home.
