About this sermon
The trial starts today in Philadelphia for the pro-life father of 7 and subject of an armed FBI raid. Several dozen supporters were outside the courtroom today. Mark Houck is charged with violating federal law for reportedly assaulting a Planned Parenthood volunteer in 2021. A charge he strongly denies. Jury selection took part this morning. The case could be wrapped up by the end of the week. Houck is facing 11 year in prison. Attorney Matt Heffron joins to share how he sees this case playing out and what a best case scenario looks like. Heffron tells us about the FBI raid on Mark Houck's home that threw this case into the national spotlight. He discusses how the Houcks are doing as this was a pretty traumatic event. The FBI is under a lot of scrutiny these days from conservatives, pro-lifers and now the House of Representatives. When it comes to these reports of FBI aggression, or also passivity when addressing attacks on pro-life centers, Heffron explains whether he foresees the outcome of this case turning the tide in any way or setting a new standard.
