Baby Angel’s arms and legs were torn from his body. Police refuse to investigate.

In March 2022, the broken body of Baby Ángel was discovered inside a box on a street in Washington, D.C. That box was about to be loaded onto a truck belonging to Curtis Bay Medical Waste Services. If Ángel — and the other bodies discovered in the box — had not been found, they would have all been carted off to the Curtis Bay incinerators to be burned for energy for the Baltimore area. Instead, they each received a proper burial. Their killers, however, will likely never face justice.

Those who recovered Ángel’s body reportedly said that “the only thought that could pass through their minds when they saw him for the first time was that he looked like a beautiful baby angel.”

But Ángel had been tortured to death. It is clear from the state of his body that his arms and legs were torn off in a violent and inhuman act meant to kill him. But the person or persons behind his horrific death are not being investigated, and will not be charged because the barbaric actions carried out against Baby Ángel are completely legal in Washington, D.C. In fact, D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser called for an investigation into one of the persons who found Ángel, not those who killed him.

Certain states are now enacting laws to ensure that more innocent children are killed in the same way.

Justice for the Five

Baby Ángel was killed by dismemberment abortion late in pregnancy and his body was found in a medical waste bin outside a DC abortion business.

Ángel was killed late in pregnancy by the most commonly used second-trimester abortion procedure known as dilation and evacuation (D&E), also called a “dismemberment abortion” due to how the procedure is carried out.

As explained by former abortionist Dr. Kathi Aultman, a board-certified obstetrician-gynecologist who herself has committed over 500 abortions, a D&E is carried out between 14 weeks and 22 weeks of pregnancy. It involves dilating the mother’s cervix slowly over one or two days. After the cervix is dilated and the uterus is emptied of amniotic fluid using a suction cannula, the abortionist uses a Sopher clamp to pull the baby out in pieces. The abortionist gets a firm grip on an arm or leg and tears it from the baby’s torso. He continues until he has torn off all of the baby’s limbs, followed by a crushing of the torso, heart, lungs, and head.

“Usually, the most difficult part of the procedure is extracting the fetus’s head,” explained Aultman in a video for Live Action, “which at about 20 weeks is about the size of a large plum. The abortionist must open the clamp widely to grasp the head, and then crush it so that it will fit through the cervix. The abortionist knows he has crushed the skull when a white substance — the fetus’s brains — leaks out through the cervix. The abortionist then removes the compressed head.”

However, in some cases, if the cervix is “over-dilated,” the baby can come out partially or completely intact.

 

In states that allow abortion beyond the first trimester, this is how most preborn babies from 14 weeks old up to 22 weeks old will die — and their deaths are being cheered and celebrated by those who support legalized abortion.

Though the Supreme Court’s ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization was largely viewed as a pro-life win because Roe v. Wade was finally overturned, the effects of that decision have varied across the nation. Though states are no longer forced by Roe to allow legalized abortion through the so-called age of ‘viability,’ they are also still free to allow abortion on demand for any reason until birth. Therefore, while the majority of preborn babies in pro-life states such as Texas are now protected from abortion, preborn babies in pro-abortion states like Vermont are all at risk of being targeted for violent, medically unnecessary deaths, such as the one carried out against Ángel. And in some states, these killings are now protected as a right by the state constitution.

Such pro-abortion constitutional amendments and laws seek to protect the killers and ignore victims like Ángel as well as Christopher, who died along with Ángel in that Washington, D.C., abortion business.

Any person who supports abortion must realize that he or she supports what was done to Ángel.
