Phill Kline on Monday defiantly insisted that his tactics were sound and his cause just during his efforts to bring charges against Planned Parenthood and Wichita abortion provider George Tiller.Kline took the stand to face allegations that he misled and defied judges, mishandled evidence and said too much to Bill O’Reilly throughout his long investigation of Kansas abortion clinics.
“These charges were supported and these charges need to be tried,” said Kline, a former attorney general and Johnson County district attorney.
Stanton Hazlett, the state’s judicial disciplinary administrator, argues that Kline broke ethical rules for attorneys as he investigated the abortion providers.
A three-attorney panel sits in judgment. If the panel finds Kline in violation of ethical rules, it would be up to the Kansas Supreme Court to decide any discipline. Punishment could range from censure to disbarment.
Kline’s Kansas license is inactive; he now teaches law at Liberty University in Virginia. But disbarment could make it difficult for Kline to practice law in another state.
