Governor Glenn Youngkin has ordered the Virginia State Police to begin a criminal investigation into claims that Fairfax County Public Schools staff helped minors obtain abortions without informing their parents. The directive follows reports alleging that school employees may have arranged and paid for abortions for several minors, possibly using public funds from local, state, or federal sources.
“I am deeply concerned with the allegations that Fairfax County Public Schools officials arranged for minors to get abortions without parental consent and may have misused public funds to pay for them. I am directing the Virginia State Police Bureau of Criminal Investigation to open a full criminal investigation into the matter immediately,” said Governor Glenn Youngkin.
Authorities are urging anyone with information about these allegations to contact the Virginia State Police at vfc@vfc.vsp.virginia.gov or (804) 674-2196.
