Fed lawsuit filed vs. city in Gosnell-related death - Philly.com: The daughter of a patient killed at Kermit Gosnell's squalid West Philadelphia abortion clinic has filed a federal lawsuit against the city's Department of Public Health and Donald Schwarz, the health commissioner and deputy mayor for health and opportunity.
In her suit, Yashoda Gurung, the daughter of Karna Maya Mongar, alleges that the Department of Public Health "operates on a plan of inaction" and that its practice of "ignoring warning signs" cost her mother her life.
Mongar, 41, a refugee from Bhutan, died in November 2009 after she was overdosed with anesthetics at the Women's Medical Society clinic by an unlicensed staffer at the direction of Gosnell, according to the suit and the grand-jury report.
