From FRONTLINE: Our
1996 film about the murder of two Massachusetts abortion clinic
receptionists by an abortion opponent, and the fierce debate the
killings ignited about the intersection of free speech, abortion and
religion.
Why Watch Now? This
week, citing the right to free speech, the Supreme Court unanimously
struck down the Massachusetts “buffer zone” law passed in the wake of
the murders. The law prohibited protests within 35 feet of abortion
clinics.
The decision marks a victory for abortion opponents, who argued that protesters have a right to approach and try to counsel women who might be seeking an abortion.
In the wake of the ruling, we've made FRONTLINE’s in-depth examination of the case that helped lead to the buffer zone law available to watch online for the first time.
