Father Paul Hill was a Roman Catholic priest known for his involvement in the pro-life movement in the United States. He gained notoriety for his strong opposition to abortion and was associated with various anti-abortion activities, including protests and demonstrations. In 1994, Hill was convicted of the murder of Dr. John Britton, an abortion provider, and was sentenced to death. His actions and subsequent trial sparked significant debate about the ethics of violence in the pro-life movement and raised questions about the limits of activism in the context of abortion rights and freedom of speech.
