Ten years after a grand jury report exposed a notorious Philadelphia abortionist, the lead detective in the case says he was guided by the Holy Spirit and he’s more committed than ever to protecting the unborn.
“Life is life, and it begins at conception,” said Montgomery County Detective James Wood, who grew up in the former Most Blessed Sacrament Parish in Philadelphia, and is currently an active member of another archdiocesan parish.

Philadelphia is rolling out its own sign-up site for the COVID-19 vaccine, health officials announced Tuesday, adding to a growing chorus of confusion over a city partner’s vaccine registry that already exists.
In early January, the start-up Philly Fighting COVID launched a sign-up site in advance of its mass-vaccination clinic at the Pennsylvania Convention Center. The organization’s announcement claimed all vaccine preparation was “in lockstep with the Philadelphia Department of Public Health.”
More than 60,000 people have entered their information at PFC’s site, according to the group, which said all registration data was being shared with the city Health Department.
While Philadelphia places higher-education employees in phase 1C of vaccine distribution, the Medical School sent an email to its staff on Jan. 12 stating that the school is placing employees in phase 1B.
