Fifth Planned Parenthood video turns to 'intact' fetuses




FIFTH PLANNED PARENTHOOD VIDEO TURNS TO ‘INTACT’ FETUSES
 



 GETTING THE 'RIGHT SPECIMEN' 
A TINY HUMAN BABY INTACT BRINGS THE MOST MONEY


A Planned Parenthood official discusses the procurement and cost of "intact" fetuses and altering abortion procedures to meet specific needs in a video released Tuesday by an anti-abortion group.

In the fifth of a series of videos from the Center for Medical Progress, a woman identified as Melissa Farrell, director of research for Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast, discusses contributing to the organization's "diversification of the revenue stream" and the potential to "get creative" with conditions for procurement needs.
The video was reportedly filmed in April at a Planned Parenthood facility in Texas.
 "Just depending on the patient's anatomy, how many weeks, where it's placed in the uterus ... we're going to potentially be able to have some that will be more or less intact and then some that will not be," she says. "But it's something that we can look at exploring how we can make that happen so we have a higher chance," she adds.

"And we've had studies in which the company, or in the case of the investigator, has a specific need for a certain portion of the products of conception and we bake that into our contract, and our protocol, that we follow this. So we deviate from our standard in order to do that.

"If we alter our process and we are able to obtain intact fetal cadavers, then we can make it part of the budget, that any dissections are this, and splitting the specimens into different shipments is this. I mean, it's all just a matter of line items," she says.

Planned Parenthood, which has argued the series of videos are a part of a smear campaign against the organization, quickly fired back.

"The footage released today doesn’t show Planned Parenthood staff engaged in any wrongdoing or agreeing to violate any legal or medical standards," Planned Parenthood Executive Vice President Dawn Laguens said in a six-paragraph statement. (Arranged MURDER - MURDER FOR HIRE IS ILLEGAL!! What they are doing is not 'wrongdoing' or violating legal or medical standards"??? THEN WHAT THE HELL DO YOU CALL OUTRIGHT MURDER OF A INNOCENT HUMAN BEING? A 'business arrangement"?)

"Instead, the latest tape shows an extremely offensive intrusion and lack of respect for women, with footage of medical tissue in a lab. These extremists show a total lack of compassion and dignity for women’s most personal medical decisions," she added. (Yeah! Right!  MURDERING their very own child!)

Laguens said the latest video "will be difficult for many people to see," adding that "[m]edical procedures and medical research are often difficult to watch."

Laguens alluded to graphic images in the video of a gloved hand with tweezers sifting through a dish of fetal parts and tissue.

"It is 'standard medical practice' to review tissue to ensure the health and safety of patients, and this tissue was being examined and handled under the false pretense of a standard laboratory site visit for people purportedly conducting qualified medical research," she said.

Planned Parenthood has pushed back strongly the videos released over the past few weeks. Officials note that the recordings are heavily edited and maintain that the group does not profit from the transfer of fetal parts and tissue to researchers, but does receive payment to cover costs related to the tissue's preservation and transfer. (Really? In the hundreds to thousands of dollars to 'ship'???)

The Center for Medical Progress's David Daleiden said earlier Tuesday on CNN's “New Day" that the most recent video shows evidence of "how Planned Parenthood is willing to sell fully intact fetuses to buyers of aborted fetal tissue.”

Debate over federal funding for Planned Parenthood is expected to resume on Capitol Hill after Congress's August recess, after a measure to defund the group failed in the Senate on Monday(HOW can this be?  The USA corporation DEFENDS 'GOV' PAYING FOR OUTRIGHT MURDER?)

Planned Parenthood President Cecile Richards defended the group on Monday, saying the Senate vote was “about denying women access to healthcare in this country.” ????

The Center for Medical Progress has said it will release more videos.

I would like to see the names of the companies buying these aborted fetuses.
