Investigators said Booker suffered a stroke and drowned in his shower in his Madison, Mississippi, home.Tanya Britten of Pro-Life Mississippi said, “From a Christian perspective, I pray that he repented on the lives that he has taken, and that God is merciful,”In 1999, Booker served time in prison for tax evasion. Later in the year, police learned that a local resident discovered 36 bags of aborted babies in a storage unit he purchased from Booker in Ocean Springs, Mississippi. The new owner said Booker stowed the babies there shortly before going to prison.For years, Booker performed abortions at Jackson Women's Health Organization (JWHO), the last abortion facility in the state.
