Amid all its other recent scandals new ones have come to light regarding some of the personnel of Catholic Relief Services. I won't comment on all of them but will refer you to LifeSite News for further detail.
I will comment on Charisse Espy Glassman, who was convicted of vehicular assault after driving her car into a group of pro-life activists during the 2011 March for Life in DC. In addition to aspiring to a political career in the Democrat party she was employed at the time with CRS-Haiti. She remained with them until August 2011. I know the assault victim who suffered the injured back. In fact, when I was getting started in pro-life work, her mother and I spent many hours at an abortuary off Shady Grove Road in Gaithersburg.
I fear that CRS may well be simply an international version of CCHD.

Those "Peaceful" Liberals
Here are just a few DC-area tidbits that the mainstream media won't bother to mention.
On January 24th, during the annual March for Life, Charisse Epsy Glassman, niece of former US Agriculture Secretary Mike Epsy and a candidate for a Virginia school board position, was found guilty of assaulting a pro-lifer with her car. Glassman was driving out of an ally towards pro-lifers nearby. One woman stepped in front of the car, shouting at her to slow down so as not to endanger the other prolifers. Glassman laughed and kept moving until she hit the woman. The woman suffered back injuries. While the woman's name was not made public, I do know her. I trust that Glassman's budding political career has been nipped.
Second, you might remember the video from a few days ago, when OWS types knocked down the stairs an elderly lady who was attending an Americans For Prosperity conference. The OWS types were blockading the doors. One of them was what we could call a "mother from hell". She joined the blockade - and used her children for that purpose. As of the time the clip below was taken, she has no regrets about endangering her own children. Watch this. The woman does not have the sense of a billy goat.
If anyone saw these in the mainstream media, please advise.

Democrat Candidate Commits Violence Against Pro-Life Activist
Lifenews reports that during last year's March for Life on January 24th, a Democratic candidate for the Fairfax County (VA) Board of Education for deliberately striking a march participant with her vehicle. I direct you to the Lifenews article for the details of the incident and the criminal charges that Charisse Espy Glassman faces in the District. Read all the way down to see how the automobile is becoming the weapon of choice as baby-murder advocates strike out against pro-lifers who prick their consciences. Here's the Washington Post write-up.
One has to wonder what took her so long to cease her political campaign. Did it take that much convincing for her to get it through her skull that vehicular assault (I wonder why the charge isn't attempted vehicular homicide) does not look good on a political resume (although it didn't hurt Ted Kennedy too much). One also has to wonder just what her educational philosophy would have been, had she actually won a seat on that school board. No wonder our public schools are in such lousy shape!
