Report shows abortion industry trafficked organs of 24-week babies

The 500-page Majority Report from the Senate Judiciary Committee reveals hours-worth of shocking information. None, perhaps, is quite as shocking as the paid invoices detailing the body parts of 24- and 22-week-old babies that were harvested and sold by fetal parts companies after the babies were first aborted at Planned Parenthood or other abortion facilities.

This is what a 24-week-old baby looks like:

And this is what an invoice selling his organs for hundreds of dollars looks like:

These paid invoices are found, along with others, in the report’s exhibit section. The specific ones pictured here come from Advanced Bioscience Resources (ABR), a company that paid for aborted baby bodies from Planned Parenthood. At least two of the Planned Parenthood affiliates discussed in the report commit abortions up to 23 weeks and 6 days or 24 weeks. With modern medical care, babies at 24 weeks have a 65 percent survival rate.

As a Live Action News report on fetal viability detailed:

[F]etal respiratory capacity has been enhanced in our modern day. A great number of babies can now survive at 22 weeks gestation. (The earliest recorded babies to survive, James Elgin Gill and Frieda Mangold, were born at 21 weeks 6 days and 21 weeks 5 days.) The Washington Post remarkably even reported: “That babies can survive at 22 weeks is not a new finding; it has been known for 15 years. … New research confirmed that 22-week fetuses, measured from the first day of the pregnant woman’s last menstrual cycle, can survive.”

A May 2015 medical study, published in the New England Journal of Medicine reports that roughly 25% of babies born at 22 weeks gestation would survive if “actively treated in a hospital.”

Twins Hunter and Darcy were born at 22 weeks, but are now 10 years old:

And yet, instead of letting infants like Toby and Hunter and Darcy survive, Planned Parenthood aborts them through a variety of methods, including the one described by Dr. Anthony Levatino, a former abortionist, in the video below. This procedure, known as a D&E or a dilation and extraction is committed at abortion facilities on babies up to 24 weeks old.

Additional disturbing invoices are included in the report, including the two below that detail the sale of two eyes from a 21-week-old baby for $650, as well as one “lower limb” and a section of skin from a 21-week-old baby for $325 each.

These invoices — and the entire report — make it perfectly clear that when the abortion industry sees babies like Micah Pickering (born at 22 weeks),

Micah Pickering, now a healthy 3-year-old, was born at 22 weeks gestation in 2012.

or even Baby Jaxon who was born at 18 weeks, too young to survive more than a few minutes,

they don’t see human beings — children — worth loving. They see body parts, organs, pieces of skin, eyeballs, and little legs worth collecting money from.

This is the reality of the abortion industry.
