Sam Gill

Salt Lake County District Attorney Sim Gill said he’s received angry calls from some residents since announcing that he would not prosecute doctors for any violations of Utah’s ban on abortion after 18 weeks. Salt Lake County includes the state’s only two abortion clinics, and Gill is one of several prosecutors in Georgia and Utah who say they will not enforce new abortion restrictions passed by their states. The prosecutor is pictured here speaking to the members of the Senate Judiciary, Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice Standing Committee at the Utah state Capitol in Salt Lake City on Feb. 21, 2019.(AP Photo/Rick Bowmer)
