AUSTIN, Texas (Reuters) - A Texas grand jury has indicted two anti-abortion activists in a case involving covert videos on fetal tissue procurement talks with Planned Parenthood and found there was no wrongdoing on the part of the health group, a district attorney said on Monday.
The grand jury decision was a result of a probe launched last year under Texas Governor Greg Abbott, a Republican, who accused Planned Parenthood of the "gruesome harvesting of baby body parts." No evidence was provided by Texas to back the claim.
The videos released last summer led Texas and several other Republican-controlled states to try to halt funding for local Planned Parenthood operations

What? You mean they lied! Who knew? *sarcastically* Anyone surprised by this? I'm sure as hell not. However, it's good that they are getting charged for this. Maybe other anti-abortion activists will see this and see that lying doesn't pay off. Also, talk about denial from the Texas govenor
