The video from Created Equal, posted in March, is below:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/1WNF8VYGerM\" width=\"640\" height=\"355\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Created Equal <a href=\"http:\/\/createdequal.definehosted.com\/index.php?action=social&amp;chash=c366c2c97d47b02b24c3ecade4c40a01.2457&amp;s=4d00fa86e3bb91c686155d9aa8cbf35c\">noted in an email today<\/a>, &#8220;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.&#8221; The abortion facility, Greenville Women&#8217;s Clinic, did not have a required waste disposal plan. As previously reported by Live Action News:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The notice also states that the abortion facility \u201cfailed to develop a written infectious waste management plan\u201d and that the Bureau of Land and Waste Management may \u201cimpose monetary penalties\u201d for the lack of a plan as well as for the unauthorized transport of infectious waste for disposal.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>According to Created Equal, those monetary penalties were issued, and they were in the thousands of dollars:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>An administrative order was issued by the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (SCDHEC) against Greenville Women&#8217;s Center (GWC) to resolve the violation of a south Carolina infectious waste law. Additionally, the SCDHEC issued a consent order against waste hauler, Stericycle. The abortion company was fined $19,000 and Stericycle was fined $9,500.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Stericycle and Greenville Women&#8217;s Clinic must pay their fines within 30 days to the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control. For some time, the public <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/if-stericycle-doesnt-accept-fetuses-anymore-then-whos-hauling-away-the-dead-bodies\/\">had been led to believe<\/a> that Stericycle had broken ties with the abortion industry, due to outside pressure.<\/p>\n<p>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 <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/quote-of-the-day-2\/\">caught on tape<\/a> joking about being so desperate to dispose of the bodies that she considered putting each one in a gift bag. &#8220;We were really tempted to give the fetus back\u2026&#8221; she said. &#8220;Um, we thought, we\u2019ll give it [after an abortion] to everybody in a gift bag \u2013 they can take it home, figure out what to do with it. It\u2019s their pregnancy, and why is this our problem?\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>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 &#8212; only the pickups were made clandestinely, not on the site of the abortion facility.
