EXCERPT:
A Scottish judge has dismissed charges against 75-year-old pro-life grandmother Rose Docherty, who was arrested last September for peacefully protesting abortion outside an abortion center in Scotland.
Docherty was merely holding a sign and offering consensual conversation in a so-called buffer zone outside a Glasgow hospital that kills babies.
Sheriff Stuart Reid at Glasgow Sheriff Court ruled that prosecutors “failed to disclose an offence known to the law of Scotland” and dismissed the two charges of “influencing” within the zone pro loco et tempore.
Docherty, a Christian grandmother from Glasgow, had stood silently with a sign reading: “Coercion is a crime, here to talk, only if you want.” She did not approach anyone, did not discuss abortion and offered conversation only to those who wanted it.
