IVA: PP Staffer Implicated In Incest Coverup

Julia Piercey serves as the Director of Education and Training for Boise’s Planned Parenthood affiliate. What ought to be a concern to all Idaho parents is that Ms. Piercey served in the same role with a Planned Parenthood affiliate in Ohio, and was named as a defendant in civil suit alleging that the Planned Parenthood staff under Ms. Piercey’s direction and supervision broke state law by refusing to report the sexual abuse of 16-year-old Denise Fairbanks at the hands of her own father. Although the suit was dismissed earlier this year, it will be refiled this month/Bryan Fischer, IVA. More here.


Question: Has the Idaho Values Alliance raised an issue here that should concern Idaho parents?

    There are no issues which the IVA raises that should concern Idaho parents. I will begin to respect the IVA more when they actually follow through on their threats - and since I know Bryan Fischer reads this blog, I have a question for him:

    “Bryan, where is the lawsuit you promised to the City of Moscow almost a year ago when they adopted the domestic partner health insurance benefits? You said if they affirmed the decision to keep the benefits active that a lawsuit would be forthcoming. Where is it?”

    I don’t normally make New Year resolutions, but for 2009 I’ll make an exception:

    I resolve to ignore Bryan Fischer and his one man IVA.

    Funny thing about Bryan Fischer is that when you review the evidence, the facts do not live up to the allegations he made. First, the girl reported that she was assaulted by a stranger, not her father. It is unfortunate that the assault was not reported to law enforcement as the farce the child and father were involved in may have been realized. Bryan you should read things before you post.

    This begins to remind me of the Pat Robertson poll.
