Anti-abortion activists pardoned by Trump face trial for new clinic ‘invasion’

Two who received presidential pardon among six activists charged with trespass and conspiracy in Pennsylvania

Six anti-abortion activists, include two previously pardoned by Donald Trump, will stand trial on state charges that they trespassed on an abortion clinic’s property and refused to leave.

The six, who were also charged with criminal conspiracy, were due in court on Wednesday, but waived their right to appear – a move that is tantamount to pleading not guilty, according to lawyer John Williamson. A trial date has not been set.
