Wichita had closed because of the continued harassment. but women s health care services did not. dr. george tiller and judy burkehart kept it open for nearly two more decades. despite if all. then on may 31, 2009, the only remaining abortion provider in the entire city of wichita, dr. george tiller, was shot in the head and killed by an anti-abortion extremist. and for about four years after the murder of george tiller, the 400,000 people of wichita had no abortion provider between them. other doctors were understandably scared off by threats and harassments. and the women s health care services clinic shut down. but in 2013, julie burkehart reopened it. because doctors didn t feel comfortable living in wichita give its violent history toward abortion providers, she flew them in. she later opened a second clinic oklahoma city, the first new abortion clinic in the state of oklahoma in more than 40 years.
