Flock lied about a Texas sheriff who searched Flock to track down a woman for an abortion. Flock asserted the woman was never under criminal investigation. Court documents showed Flock misled the public for months, accusing journalists of lying. #shutdownflock #whattheflock
Police Said They Surveilled Woman Who Had an Abortion for Her 'Safety.' Court Records Show They Considered Charging Her With a Crime
Court records show that the narrative Flock and a Texas Sheriff's Office has told the public isn't the whole story, and that police were conducting a 'death investigation' into the abortion.
