Oz Said Abortion Is ‘Murder’ at Any Stage of Pregnancy

The Daily Beast has obtained audio from a campaign event earlier this year where Pennsylvania U.S. Senate candidate Mehmet Oz (R) staked out his most extreme position on abortion yet, telling voters he believes abortion at any stage of development is “still murder,” including from the moment of conception.

Said Oz: “I do believe life starts at conception, and I’ve said that multiple times If life starts at conception, why do you care what age the heart starts beating at? It’s, you know, it’s still murder, if you were to terminate a child whether their heart’s beating or not.”
