Information About

Michael F. Griffin




The then 31-year-old Griffin, a member of the Army Of God , waited outside Gunn's clinic and shot him three times in the back. Griffin did not attempt to hide his involvement in the murder, telling police, "I've just shot Dr. Gunn."

A jury only deliberated three hours before finding him guilty on March 4 , 1994 . He was sentenced to life in prison, and will be eligible for parole in 2019. The assassination inspired the federal Freedom Of Access To Clinic Entrances Act .
