A former Planned Parenthood director suspected of child pornography crimes was found dead by suicide Tuesday in New Haven, Connecticut, according to local authorities.
The Blaze reports Tim Yergeau, 35, of New Haven, reportedly killed himself five days after police raided his apartment as part of a child pornography investigation.
Yergeau worked at the abortion chain for approximately four years from 2018 to 2022 as the director of strategic communications for Planned Parenthood of Southern New England. An Instagram profile that The Blaze identified as his shows numerous photos of his pro-abortion advocacy, including wearing a Planned Parenthood T-shirt and participating in pro-abortion events.
New Haven Police Chief Karl Jacobson told The Middletown Press that “the person who died was definitely the suspect in a child pornography investigation and the person who committed suicide.”
“It was an open investigation, so he knew he was going to be arrested,” Jacobson added.
Here’s more from the report:
Jacobson … declined to confirm Yergeau was the suspect in the child pornography investigation. But Yergeau’s neighbor and the state Office of the Chief State Medical Examiner both confirmed he died Tuesday morning. The medical examiner also confirmed Yergeau died by suicide.
Police have not released details about the child pornography investigation yet. They said they are still investigating whether other individuals were involved.

Yergeau began working for the Planned Parenthood abortion chain in 2018, according to his Instagram account. He still was employed there as recently as May 2022, a press release from the Planned Parenthood website shows. In August, Yergeau began working for Long Wharf Theatre.
This is not the first time a Planned Parenthood employee has been accused of sex-related crimes. Former Planned Parenthood abortionist Roger Ian Hardy was accused of sexually molesting several former patients and female staffers in 2016 before he fled the country.
The abortion chain also has a long history of ignoring or helping to cover up sexual abuse, especially involving underage girls.
Meanwhile, Planned Parenthood aborted more than 383,000 unborn babies in 2020, while bringing in more money than ever before: $1.714 billion income, aided in part by $633.4 million taxpayer dollars. Planned Parenthood’s political arm also donates huge amounts of money to electing Democrats to office.
Its patient numbers have been dropping steadily in recent years amid numerous reports of alleged unethical and illegal activities, including selling aborted baby body parts, botching abortions that killed women, covering up the sexual abuse of minors, exploiting young girls by selling cross-sex hormones and more.
Hundreds of its employees also have voiced racism complaints, including “systemic racism,” “abusive behavior and financial malfeasance.” Other employees have accused Planned Parenthood of pregnancy discrimination.
