A pro-life advocate believes the illegal sterilization of inmates in California targeted minority groups believed to be prone to crime.
"I'm telling you, I bet my house that if someone goes out here and studies that, what you are going to find is that they are going to be the primary target groups ? blacks and Hispanics,? says Mike Crutcher, president of Life Dynamics.
The Center for Investigative Reporting found that doctors in California illegally sterilized almost 150 female inmates from 2006 to 2010. The center found that almost 100 more were sterilized prior to 2006 without proper procedures.
Crutcher says the sterilization ?tracks perfectly? with pro-life research that found abortion clinics target minority communites.
?There is no doubt about it,? he tells OneNewsNow.
The report says female inmates in prisons across the state were pressured to go through the procedure while they were pregnant.
"The original motive behind the legalization of abortion was to eliminate what they called dysgenic groups, primarily blacks and Hispanics, and a big part of that was sterilization,? Crutcher explains.
Doctors allegedly pressured and targeted inmates who had many children or were likely to be repeat offenders.
California banned forced sterilization in state prisons in 1979.?
