Sitting judges donate to anti abortion PAC in Kansas City
Kansas City Star reports Sedgwick County Judges Eric Yost and Jeffrey Goering each gave 100 to Kansans for Life PAC in 2011 after abortion cases. Goering issued a Jan 2011 temporary order blocking a Wichita doctor from using her office for abortions over landlord nuisance concerns. Yost was linked to the Kline Tiller legal saga. No law bars such donations.
