British clinic offers RU-486 to Americans
In London a British clinic said it will provide the abortion pill RU-486 to American and other nonresident women. Marie Stopes International said the Health Department agreed not to prosecute doctors or nonresident patients if strict conditions, including a two week stay, are met.
