The legal troubles for David Daleiden keep stacking up. Daleiden, the head of an anti-choice group called the Center for Medical Progress, made headlines over the summer with extremely misleading videos making accusations that Planned Parenthood is running a black market, for-profit business in fetal body parts.

These accusations, which have been disproved time and time again by various governmental investigations led to Daleiden’s arrest on Thursday in Harris County, Texas. The grand jury that charged him was instigated by Republican officials in the state who clearly wanted them to come up with some kind of charge against Planned Parenthood, but instead the grand jury cleared Planned Parenthood of wrongdoing, instead charging Daleiden for falsifying government documents and attempting to buy fetal tissue illegally.

Right after Daleiden’s arrest in Texas, he got handed another legal defeat in California, when district court judge William Orrick issued a temporary restraining order against Daleiden and Center for Medical Progress, keeping Daleiden from releasing even more videos with footage he recorded inside the National Abortion Federation’s (NAF) annual meeting in 2015.

The decision is particularly notable because it really lays out, in painstaking detail, how sleazy Daleiden’s operation really is. In order to get into NAF, the judge’s decision explains, Daleiden falsely claimed to be working for a biotech firm. Despite lying about his identity, he signed a document claiming that his application was “truthful, accurate, complete, and not misleading,” which it absolutely was not.

Moreover, to get in, Daleiden and his group signed an agreement that they would not record anything that happened inside the conference and “not disclose any NAF Conference Information to third parties without first obtaining NAF’s express written consent.” Despite swearing not to record anything, Daleiden and his workers recorded “approximately 257 hours and 49 minutes at NAF’s 2014 Annual Meeting and 246 hours and 3 minutes at NAF’s 2015 Annual Meeting.”
