Waste hauler, abortion facility fined thousands for illegal transfer of fetal remains

In March, Live Action News reported that pro-life group Created Equal had learned of multiple illegal pickups made by medical waste hauler Stericycle from a South Carolina abortion facility employee — only the pickups were made clandestinely, not on the site of the abortion facility. The video from Created Equal, posted in March, is below:

Created Equal noted in an email today, “On three separate occasions, video was captured showing a representative of GWC illegally transporting dead babies in a passenger car and transferring the aborted baby body parts to a Stericycle waste truck at a local gas station.” The abortion facility, Greenville Women’s Clinic, did not have a required waste disposal plan. As previously reported by Live Action News:

According to Created Equal, those monetary penalties were issued, and they were in the thousands of dollars:

Stericycle and Greenville Women’s Clinic must pay their fines within 30 days to the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control. For some time, the public had been led to believe that Stericycle had broken ties with the abortion industry, due to outside pressure.

The U.S. abortion industry has long had issues with finding ways to dispose of one million bodies of aborted children every year. One Michigan abortion facility owner was even caught on tape joking about being so desperate to dispose of the bodies that she considered putting each one in a gift bag. “We were really tempted to give the fetus back…” she said. “Um, we thought, we’ll give it [after an abortion] to everybody in a gift bag – they can take it home, figure out what to do with it. It’s their pregnancy, and why is this our problem?”
