 Undercover Video Reveals Bronx, NY Abortion Clinic Would Put Born-Alive Baby in Jar of Toxic Solution to Ensure Death, Suggests Flushing Baby if Delivered at Home During Procedure

Six-Month Undercover Investigation to Shed Light on Abortion Industry’s Inhuman, Illegal, and Gruesome Practices

Arlington, VA: Live Action today released an undercover video of an abortion counselor at a clinic in the Bronx, NY, describing, with gruesome details, what is done with a baby who survives an abortion attempt.  This is the first in a series of undercover videos, found at www.liveaction.org/inhuman, involving a number of late-term abortion clinics engaging in illegal and inhuman practices, as well as explaining in explicit detail what happens to the victims of late-term abortion.

“Dr. Kermit Gosnell is not alone,” said Lila Rose, Founder and President of Live Action.  “The gruesome and inhuman practices exposed in Gosnell’s ‘House of Horrors’ are business as usual for the abortion industry in America.  These children’s lives are brutally destroyed when they are the most defenseless. This isn’t ‘choice’; this is murder.”

The Bronx, NY abortion counselor is caught on tape describing, in gruesomely precise terms, how late-term abortions happen.  She details what is done with a baby after the abortion and advises to “flush” the baby down the toilet if he or she is delivered at home before the final stage of the two- or three-day abortion procedure.

“If it comes out, then it comes out. Flush it. … if anything, you know, put it in a bag or something or somewhere and bring it to us.”

When Live Action’s undercover investigator asks what happens to the baby after the abortion – or what the clinic would do if, after the abortion, the baby is moving – the counselor says:

“If it did come out in one piece, it’s very small.  So they would still have to put it in a container – like, a jar – with solution and send it to the lab.”

When asked what happens if the baby after the abortion is breathing or twitching, the Bronx counselor responds:

“The solution will make it stop.  It’s not going to be moving around in the jar … that’s the whole purpose of the solution.”

“It’ll automatically stop.  It won’t be able to…not with the solution.”

Rose is calling on NY state government and health officials and U.S. prosecutors to investigate the Bronx clinic and conduct a statewide investigation into other clinics that perform late-term abortions.

From the letter to Health Commissioner Shah: “[W]e have reason to believe that abortionists and staff at the Dr. Emily Woman’s Health Center are operating under conditions that endanger women and children to the point of disease and even death. We therefore urge you to immediately revoke the license of this clinic. ”

“These abortion clinics are abusing human life in unimaginable ways,” Rose said, “but our society has become so numb to what is going on behind their doors.  Babies born alive from a failed abortion should not be put in a jar of toxic solution, or flushed down a toilet.  How could anyone condone this kind of inhuman and brutal treatment of a helpless, innocent child?”

Live Action is a youth-led movement dedicated to building a culture of life and ending the human rights abuse of abortion.  The group uses new media to educate the public about the humanity of the preborn and investigative journalism to expose threats against the vulnerable and defenseless.  More information at LiveAction.org.
