Late-term abortions ‘almost never’ done on unhealthy babies, says clinic worker

Margot, a former abortion clinic worker, was interviewed by Abby Johnson on a webcast done by And Then There Were None.  And Then There Were None is an organization that helps abortion center workers leave the abortion industry.  The organization has helped over 200 abortion facility workers and 7 full time abortionists leave their jobs.

Former abortion worker Margot worked in a late-term abortion facility in the POC room. POC stand for “products of conception,” a term clinic workers use for aborted babies. Margot handled and inspected the fully formed body parts of late term babies killed in abortions.

At one point in the webcast, Abby Johnson asks her:

Johnson is responding to the common pro-abortion argument that all late term abortions are done because of horrible health problems experienced by the mother or baby. Many pro-choice organizations claim that late term abortions are only done in these dire circumstances- when the baby will die shortly after birth or be born horribly disabled.

Margot replies:

It is a myth that late-term abortions are only done for fetal anomalies or disabilities. Of course, even in such cases one can argue that it is wrong to take a baby’s life just because they will be disabled. No one has the right to judge another person’s life not worth living and act as executioner for that person.

But many late-term abortions are done on healthy mothers with healthy babies. Dr. Anthony Levatino, a former abortionist, described the process of a late-term induction abortion, which he says is performed from 25 weeks to term:

3rd Trimester Induction Abortion: Injection and Stillbirth

There have been statements by practicing abortionists admitting that healthy babies are aborted in the second and third trimester. Dr. Susan Robinson, who kills babies in the third trimester, was featured in the documentary After Tiller. When asked about the babies she aborts, she says:

The late George Tiller, who specialized in third trimester abortions, said the following at a National Abortion Federation meeting in 1995:

This means that only 800 (or 8 percent) of those 10,000 post-24-week abortions were on unhealthy children.
