Photos of the remains indicate that Karpen regularly commits infanticide, as attested to by his former clinic workers in the video above.<\/p>\n<p>According to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.operationrescue.org\/\">Operation Rescue<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>In both cases, the babies\u2019 skin is pink, noting a lack of masceration, an early form of decomposition that happens in babies that die in the womb. Massive bruising on the extremities of one of the babies indicates the baby\u2019s heart was pulsing with life when the trauma was inflicted likely when grasping instruments latched on to bring the baby down into the birth canal. The eyes of the other child are open in a nightmarish expression of pain, revealing development greater than 26-28 weeks.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.priestsforlife.org\/alert\/index1.aspx?id=38\">Father Frank Pavone<\/a>, national director of Priests for Life, made the following statement:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<div>This problem has already been brought to the state&#8217;s attention, and preliminary investigations have begun.<\/div>\n<p>But the State of Texas needs to hear from you, because we want a full scale investigation that will not be slowed down or interrupted by the efforts of pro-aborts to protect the image of their child-killing industry.<\/p>\n<div>The horror stories that the eyewitnesses bring forward are eerily similar to the Gosnell case.<\/div>\n<p>They speak of abortions taking place beyond the 24-week limit imposed by Texas law; they speak of untrained staff, lack of sterilizing of the equipment, re-using disposable equipment, concealing logs from inspectors, mistreating women\u2026and, of course, killing babies after they were born.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Except this abortionist is possibly even worse.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":152,"featured_media":90806,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Infant with eyes open in &#039;nightmarish expression of pain&#039;
