Backlash After Planned Parenthood Videos, "Steam Cooked" Baby Remains Discoveries

"Steam cooked?"
After the release of
undercover videos revealed Planned Parenthood actively sold aborted
babies and their body parts, many states have taken action against the
organization. The Center for Medical Progress, the anti-abortion
organization behind the Planned Parenthood videos, posed as potential
buyers for the aborted baby remains, and filmed as members of Planned
Parenthood discuss details of the sales.
In one video, the Director of Research for Planned
Parenthood Gulf Coast, Melissa Farrell, bragging about her branch’s
track record of aborted baby remains sales, and its talent in delivering
fully intact babies.
In response to this video, Ohio Attorney General
Mike DeWine launched an investigation into the practices of Planned
Parenthood, only to find even more disturbing revelations. DeWine
recently notified the Ohio Department of health that three local Planned
Parenthood facilities in Cincinnati, Columbus and Bedford Heights, were
involved with companies who “cook” aborted baby remains before dumping
them in a landfill. These companies steam cook aborted baby remains in
order to allegedly kill bacteria before dumping the remains in landfills
across the state lines.
Similar cases have also sprung up in other states,
including South Carolina and Kansas, where facilities were also found to
be steam cooking these remains before dumping them in a landfill. Most
of these cases ended with only a fine to Planned Parenthood and an order
to reevaluate their disposal methods.
In Texas, these undercover videos have also sparked
action against Planned Parenthood. Texas Governor Greg Abbott recently
decided to eliminate state taxpayers’ funding of the Planned Parenthood
facilities and in October, the Texas Health and Human Services
Commission ended Medicaid participation for Planned Parenthood and its
affiliates in the state of Texas. Those who use Medicaid services will
be informed of other alternatives outside of Planned Parenthood who can
provide the same services, but in a safer and more ethical manner.
It is surprising that more states have not jumped on board to help put an end to the practices of selling and cruelly disposing of aborted baby remains. The videos clearly show Planned Parenthood officials discussing how they are breaking the law by profiting from aborted baby remains, so when will the law handle these officials in a just manner?
