Charge Dropped Against David Daleiden

A misdemeanor charge against David Daleiden, the pro-life activist whose series of undercover videos showing Planned Parenthood selling baby parts sparked a Congressional hearing, has been dropped. Daleiden was charged with trying to buy body parts during his investigation.

Undercover investigator David Daleiden has been vindicated. Today, a Harris County, Texas judge dismissed the bogus misdemeanor charge against David Daleiden for allegedly trying to buy body parts from the Planned Parenthood abortion business he was exposing for selling them as a part of the Center for Medical Progress’ undercover investigation.

Daleiden has maintained from the beginning that he and the Center for Medical Progress followed all applicable laws in the course of its investigative journalism and that the indictments were politically motivated.

Daleiden is still facing charges for using a fake ID.
