·Former Planned Parenthood medical director: ‘I killed more people than Ted Bundy’
Some of the most powerful testimonies in the pro-life movement come from former abortionists. These are doctors who have committed abortions, sometimes thousands of them. They know more about abortion than anyone else. Like former abortion workers, they were insiders in the abortion industry and have seen everything that goes on in abortion facilities. One former abortionist, Kathi A. Aultman, has dedicates her life to protecting the preborn.
She has testified in support of pro-life legislation before Congress. Most recently, Aultman testified in favor of the Heartbeat Protection Act. Introduced on January 12, 2017, the bill would ban abortions after the fetal heartbeat can be detected. The fetal heartbeat starts early, perhaps as early as 16 days after conception. But it cannot be reliably detected until about six weeks. So the Heartbeat Protection Act would prohibit abortions after six weeks of pregnancy, making most abortions illegal.
Aultman was a dedicated pro-choice feminist when she entered medical school. She strongly supported legal abortion. She says:
She became an abortionist, and later became a medical director for Planned Parenthood.

Besides her pro-abortion philosophy, Aultman gives two other reasons why she became an abortionist:
She was not bothered by seeing the remains of aborted babies. In fact, she found them fascinating. Aultman says:
From 13-24 weeks, the most common abortion procedures is known as a D&E. Another former abortionist, Dr. Anthony Levatino, explains this procedure in the video below:
So great was Aultman’s ability to distance herself from what she was doing that she even committed abortions while pregnant. In her mind, committing abortions while nurturing her own preborn child was not inconsistent. She thought that since her baby was wanted, he or she deserved to live. Unwanted babies, on the other hand, had no rights. Aultman made a strong distinction between wanted and unwanted babies. In fact, when women came to her with miscarriages, she mourned with them for their lost children, because those children were wanted. It was, therefore, tragic that they did not survive.
But after Aultman’s baby was born, three things happened to make the abortionist question what she was doing. These three things eventually led her out of the industry. Aultman describes these events in her own words:
In the third case, Aultman encountered a man who pressured his wife into having an abortion. The woman eventually agreed to the abortion and it was committed, but the woman was distraught:
With the line between wanted and unwanted blurred, Aultman began to question her career as an abortionist. She began to have major doubts about what she was doing, and stopped committing abortions.

Looking back on her time in the abortion industry, Aultman reflects on how few doctors do abortions for very long:
Around this time, Aultman had a religious conversion. She became a born-again Christian. She remained deeply troubled by the number of children she had killed, but her Christian faith brought her some healing. Still, she has deep sadness for the babies that she killed. Aultman compared herself to a serial killer. “I probably murdered more people than Ted Bundy or any of the mass murderers if you consider all the abortions that I did,” she says.
She also mentions another thing that troubles her:
Aultman is now retired and has dedicated for the rest of her life to fighting abortion. She now sees abortion for what it is – the killing of a human child in a very early stage of development. By her testimony, she hopes to change the hearts and minds of people, including legislators. Her story shows that even an abortionist can have a turnaround and realize the wrong of what they are doing. Hopefully, her story will compel other abortionists as well as abortion supporters to examine their consciences and reconsider what they support.
