Planned Parenthood Abortionist Admits She Alters Baby’s Position to Harvest Intact Heads

In the 11th video released by Center for Medical Progress, a Planned Parenthood abortionist in Texas admits she alters the position of the baby during an abortion in order to be able to harvest an intact head for human organ procurement.

A Planned Parenthood late-term abortionist in Austin, Texas Dr. Amna Dermish, tells undercover investigators posing as employees of a human tissue procurement company that she was trained by the abortion business’ senior director of medical services Dr. Deborah Nucatola – who appeared in the first video about the organization’s apparent practice of harvesting baby body parts for sale.

Dermish describes a partial-birth abortion procedure to terminate living, late-term fetuses which, she says, she hopes will provide intact fetal heads for brain harvesting.

“My aim is usually to get the specimens out pretty intact,” explains Dermish to the undercover investigators, admitting that she will sometimes use ultrasound to manipulate a second-trimester fetus to a feet-first breech presentation.

“Especially the 20-weekers are a lot harder versus the 18-weekers, so at that point I’ll switch to breech,” she states.

“That’s what Deb [Nucatola] was telling us, was it really makes a difference for tissue collection at PPLA,” says one of the actors, referencing Nucatola’s technique for organ harvesting.

“It’s really nice when it’s, yeah–I trained with her,” replies Dermish.

When asked about harvesting a fetal brain, Dermish responds, “I haven’t been able to do that yet,” but laughs, “This will give me something to strive for!”

As CMP notes in a press statement, Dermish does not use the chemical digoxin to kill the unborn baby before 20 weeks, so her feet-first, intact extraction abortions are done on living babies. The use of ultrasound to manipulate the fetus from vertex to breech orientation before extracting it alive is “a hallmark of the illegal partial-birth abortion procedure (18 U.S.C. 1531).”

In the video, Dermish also confirms the price of $50 or $60 per fetal body part specimen. “The sale or purchase of human fetal tissue is a federal felony punishable by up to 10 years in prison and a fine of up to $500,000 (42 U.S.C. 289g-2),” notes the press statement.

As Breitbart News reported, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) recently announced that his state would be terminating Planned Parenthood’s Medicaid funds. Abbott said in an interview that Texas is now in possession of “hard evidence” that Planned Parenthood is engaged in “violations of federal and state law concerning abortion procedures.”

“Less than four miles away from the Texas state capitol, Planned Parenthood routinely practices barbaric partial-birth abortions on living, late-term fetuses,” states CMP Project Lead David Daleiden. “Planned Parenthood’s crimes are not just the result of local bad actors, but are tolerated and even encouraged at the highest levels of the national organization. State-level criminal investigations must press charges, and Congress’ new select committee must pursue a deep and comprehensive accounting of Planned Parenthood’s atrocities against humanity.”
