Embattled abortionist placed on probation in Maryland

A late-term abortionist with ties to LeRoy Carhart has had his medical license placed on probation in Maryland.

Key Takeaways:

  • Tyrone Malloy was hired as the medical director to serve as Carhart's replacement, at his facilities in both Nebraska and Maryland.

  • He has no license to practice medicine in Nebraska, spent four years in prison due to Medicaid fraud, and has faced numerous malpractice cases.

  • His medical license in Maryland has now been placed on probation after complaints of substandard care.

The Backstory:

Carhart, one of the country’s most notorious late-term abortionists with a history of injuring women, died in 2023 at the age of 81. His daughter, Janine Weatherby, hired Tyrone Malloy as Carhart’s replacement, including for the Nebraska facility, despite Malloy not being licensed to practice medicine there. Weatherby is not a doctor, and told The Times, “In the wake of Carhart’s death, Dr. Tyrone Malloy took over as medical director. However, Malloy primarily operates out of the Maryland clinic as its main doctor.”

Malloy has a scandal-ridden history, including a conviction for Medicaid fraud in 2014 for which he was sentenced to four years in prison and six years probation. He served less than two years in prison, and his medical license in Georgia was reinstated. He has also faced cases of malpractice, including the 1999 death of a newborn baby after a C-section and the 2008 death of a 23-year-old woman on whom he committed a 25-week D&E abortion during which he perforated her uterus and her intestine.

Never miss the latest news in the fight for life.

His past is so disturbing that an anonymous informant sent an e-mail to Operation Rescue reporting:

Tomorrow patients will illegally be seen at the Bellevue clinic under Dr. Carhart’s DEA license, and pharmacy. As you are aware he is dead. The new medical director, Tyrone Malloy MD is not registered in Nebraska and has previously lost his medical license for fraud. His colleague will see patients, and she is not a dispensing physician. The clinic license is no longer active following Dr. Carhart’s death. Do what you will with this, I have reported this to the state.

The Details:

It has been revealed that Malloy's medical license has now been placed on probation in Maryland; additionally, he has been fined $5,000. The probation period evidently stemmed from a 2024 complaint filed by an emergency department physician who reported that Malloy delivered "substandard care" for a third-trimester abortion patient.

That prompted a state investigation, which found that Malloy:

  • failed to act according to "evidence-based medical guidance for third trimester abortions (Patients 3, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 10)

  • failed to confirm or document the cessation of the fetal heartbeat before placment of cervical dilators (Patient 3)

  • failed to document his rationale for administering sedation several hours prior to the actual abortion

  • administered large amounts of misoprostol (which causes contractions) to patients and then released them

  • failed to complete and document presedation physical exams prior to sedation

  • failed to administer medication to stop bleeding

The state also found record-keeping deficiencies, including the failure to document the administration of medications and a patient's admission to the ER.

The Bottom Line:

The abortion industry is shockingly under-regulated, and this is a perfect example. Had the emergency department physician not filed a complaint, it seems unlikely that Maryland would ever have taken action. As it is, despite Malloy's checkered past and current problems, he is still being allowed to practice medicine, putting countless women at risk.
