UPDATE: Thursday, May 3, 2012

The leader of a Kansas anti-abortion group says un-redacted abortion records it received recently aren't the first to be discovered by the confidential informant who provided them.

Operation Rescue president Troy Newman told The Associated Press on Thursday that the same man found similar records last summer and turned them over to the state, but it did nothing.

Newman says the man two weeks ago gave his group the records of 86 female patients treated in April at a Kansas City, Kan., clinic. He says the man didn't say how he got the records but that he claimed he obtained them legally.

Clinic officials say someone broke into a locked trash bin on their property last week, but that records like Operation Rescue purports to have wouldn't have been there.
