Teen worker at Gosnell abortion clinic testifies

PHILADELPHIA - April 11, 2013

Ashley Baldwin is testifying Thursday at the capital murder trial of abortion provider Kermit Gosnell.

The 72-year-old doctor is charged with killing seven newborns and a woman patient who died after an abortion.

Baldwin says she learned to do intravenous injections as a high school student and assisted with abortions.

Her mother, Tina, also worked at the inner-city clinic. She has pleaded guilty to corruption of a minor for letting Ashley work at what prosecutors call a corrupt organization.

Seven other employees have also pleaded guilty, some to third-degree murder. Another is on trial with Gosnell.

Gosnell's lawyer insists that no babies were born alive.
