Planned Parenthood, LGBTQ, and child pornography – all strung together in one story of a suspect in New Haven, Connecticut, who reportedly died by suicide following a “botched” police raid that arrested the wrong person.
Media stories described Tim Yergeau, 36, as the former director of strategic communications at the Southern New England branch of Planned Parenthood, who was the suspect in a child pornography investigation.
Yergeau died on Tuesday (April 11) allegedly by suicide in his apartment ahead of arrest on child pornography charges, as confirmed by New Haven Police Chief Karl Jacobson.
At this time, no details of the suspect’s death were released to the media as the police declined to comment further, pending their investigation.
The New York Post reported that Yergeau left Planned Parenthood and started working as marketing and communications director at the Long Wharf Theatre in August 2022.
In a related incident, five days before Yergeau’s alleged suicide, police raided the apartment of his neighbor Stacey Wezenter in what they later admitted was a mistake. Mayor Justin Elicker was cited in New Haven Register admitting that “a mistake was made” when police raided the wrong apartment and arrested Wezenter. The incident left Wezenter traumatized by the cops who stormed in and handcuffed her early in the morning.
Soon, the police realized they had raided the wrong place and asked Wezenter to show them Yergeau’s apartment. It’s not clear yet whether they raided Yergeau’s place afterward.
Mayor Elicker has since apologized to Wezenter, who filed a lawsuit against the police over the botched raid and mistaken arrest.
Left-leaning mainstream media outlets have mostly ignored the story of Tim Yergeau’s death. On the other hand, Conservative media coverage highlighted the case by including Yergeau’s Planned Parenthood background in the titles of their stories.
Independent journalist Andy Ngo posted pictures from Yergeau’s Instagram profile to show the deceased’s activism for abortion and LGBTQ causes.
Another Twitter account posted a piece of artwork for children as a sample of the kind of sexualized material found on Yergeau’s website.
Previously an investigation by pro-life organization Live Action revealed that multiple staffers working at various Planned Parenthood facilities were willing to facilitate child sex trafficking.
