'Pro-choice terrorist' sentenced

Man who made death threats against pro-lifers kept poison
Father Frank Pavone
Here is a Catholic News Agency story which reports that Theodore Shulman, 51, a self-described "pro-choice terrorist," has been sentenced to 41 months in federal prison for Internet death threats against pro-life leaders.

"I have already publicly forgiven Mr. Shulman and pray for him every day," Father Frank Pavone, the head of Priests for Life, said Oct. 4.

In May, Shulman pleaded guilty to one count of transmitting a threat to injure another person. Among places where he left messages and people he allegedly threatened were the FirstThings.com blog, the California-based Life Legal Defense Foundation, pro-life blogger Jill Stanek, and Kansas-based Operation Rescue.
