Planned Parenthood Abortionist Calls Aborted Baby’s Heart “Cute”

Abortion, , ,

The Center for Medical Progress has released an eleventh undercover video–this time showing an abortion doctor from Planned Parenthood describe the process of picking through organs from aborted babies.

Dr. Amna Dermish is the protege of Dr. Deborah Nucatola; you may recall Dr. Nucatola was featured in the Center for Medical Progress’ first video released, in which she discussed abortion and the harvest of organs from aborted babies while casually sipping wine and eating salad.

At one point in this newest video, Dr. Dermish describes how one of Planned Parenthood’s “POC [products of conception] persons” picks through the organs of aborted babies, saying, “She’ll pull out, like, kidneys, and heart, and, like, heart we’ll frequently see at nine weeks [gestation], and she always looks for it. . . . Well, it’s cute.”

Planned Parenthood to Stop Selling Baby Organs, Will Still Give Remains to Researchers

Abortion, ,

Planned Parenthood Federation of America CEO Cecile Richards announced today that Planned Parenthood no longer plans to sell organs harvested from aborted fetal remains to scientists–although it still plans to give the organs to researchers.

The move comes in the wake of a series of undercover videos exposing Planned Parenthood officials allegedly negotiating the sale of aborted fetal remains in violation of federal law.

Richards recently testified before members of Congress about the organization’s practices. Her letter to the National Institute of Health acknowledges that Planned Parenthood will continue to give organs harvested from aborted babies to researchers; Planned Parenthood affiliates simply will receive no compensation for the organs.

Of course, there are still serious ethical questions about medical research conducted on organs harvest from aborted babies, as we have written before, so this is by no means a solution to the situation. However, this is a step in the right direction.

Pro-Life Law Protecting Minors Working as Intended

Abortion, , ,

fiteIn 2013 Rep. Charlene Fite (R-Van Buren) sponsored Act 725 which amends Arkansas’ Child Maltreatment Act.

Under Act 725, when a girl under the age of fourteen gets an abortion, the abortion facility must send tissue samples from the aborted baby to the State Crime Lab and contact the local law enforcement agency in the area where the girl resides.

The law also makes abortion clinic employees mandatory reporters of child abuse.

By notifying the State Crime Laboratory and local law enforcement, the state can ensure a girl obtaining an abortion is not the victim of a crime.

Act 725 of 2013 protects minors from being exploited by adults or coerced into having an abortion.

According to a recent article in the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, Act 725 of 2013 has resulted in one arrest in the past year, which would seem to indicate the law is working as intended.
