FOT follow-up: DA presses charges against prof who stole pro-life poster

The Santa Barbara district attorney filed charges of grand theft, battery, and vandalism Friday against Professor Mireille Miller-Young for violence she committed against young pro-life activists who held a peaceful outreach on the UC Santa Barbara campus March 4th.

Tuesday our program guest was Joan Short, one of the pro-life volunteers whose sign was stolen. Joan and others were handing out pro-life literature in what was designated by the university as a free speech zone.

The professor claimed that she set a good example when she attempted to incite students to violence and initiated the theft of the sign.  

The pro-life student group sponsoring the event said it hopes that the University of California at Santa Barbara – where Professor Miller-Young is employed – will remove her from any position of authority.
