Experts believe he was possibly exsanguinated and dismembered alive.<\/p><\/div>\n<h2>The Backstory:<\/h2>\n<p>On April 1 and 2 of 2023, a mother of four born children traveled from Indianapolis to Reisinger-Kindle for an abortion at Equity Clinic in Champaign, Illinois. She was between 18 and 22 weeks pregnant and underwent a two-day, second trimester D&amp;E (dismemberment) abortion, which involves the use of a Sopher clamp to tear the baby&#8217;s arms and legs off her torso before crushing her skull. Court documents note that <em>no digoxin<\/em> was administered prior to the abortion to ensure &#8220;fetal demise,&#8221; and four dilators were inserted into her cervix to prepare her for the abortion the next day.<\/p>\n<p>During that abortion on April 2, Reisinger-Kindle reportedly perforated the woman&#8217;s uterus.<\/p>\n<p>Perforated uterus and retained fetal parts are known risks of a D&amp;E; however, Reisinger-Kindle had noted he &#8220;visibly inspected&#8221; the &#8220;products of conception&#8221; and &#8220;confirmed&#8221; that the abortion was &#8220;complete.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/eR1Ut4BPbOw?si=6GatnrizJn9oClTS\" width=\"640\" height=\"355\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/abortiondocs.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/Complaint.Filed-1-2.pdf\">court documents<\/a>, the following day, the woman began suffering from heavy abdominal cramps, &#8220;pressures&#8221; in her &#8220;bottom&#8221; and other pain.<\/p>\n<p>Staff at Equity Clinic advised her to take ibuprofen and a laxative. The next day, she went to the ER where scans revealed &#8220;the remains of &#8216;half of a deceased pre-born human being&#8217; &#8230; in her right pelvis.&#8221; According to court documents, the operative notes stated:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><em>The patient was found to have half of a deceased pre-born human being in the right pelvis of the patient with evidence of severe and intentional trauma. <\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><em>The baby&#8217;s body was transected at the pelvis with no legs or feet present. Stumps of both femurs extended from the soft tissue of the torso. The upper extremities were missing from elbow distally on both sides. The skull was crushed and no brain was present. The face was non-recognizable. &#8230; <\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><em>There were small bony fragments in the mother&#8217;s pelvis. There was a hole in the posterolateral inferior aspect of the right uterus which was approximately the size of a quarter to half-dollar. &#8230; There was a baby skull that was adherent to the patient&#8217;s ileum <\/em>[part of the small intestine]<em>.<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>A privacy irony<\/h3>\n<p>When the surgeon attempted to speak with Reisinger-Kindle after undoing the abortionist&#8217;s damage, Reisinger-Kindle allegedly refused to provide any information, claiming he did not have the woman&#8217;s consent to discuss her case with the surgeon.<\/p>\n<p>Court documents then allege that Reisinger-Kindle spoke with the woman later that same day, failed to ask for her consent to speak to the hospital surgeon, and also claimed he would &#8220;look again&#8221; to see if he could identify the sex of the woman&#8217;s baby upon her request \u2014 knowing that her child&#8217;s remains were already disposed of.<\/p>\n<p>Despite Reisinger-Kindle&#8217;s apparent concern for the woman&#8217;s privacy back in April, he recently called for the public release of her name as the Plaintiff in the lawsuit. Ironically, his attorneys <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/news\/state-fines-reprimands-illinois-abortion-213300855.html\">argued in a memorandum<\/a> that since &#8220;[t]he complaint does not involve claims of sexual assault, domestic violence, human trafficking, or other circumstances where anonymity is more commonly granted to protect a party\u2019s safety or psychological well-being,\u201d that her name should be made public.<\/p>\n<p>They also &#8220;filed a request for a gag order, citing widespread media coverage of the case,&#8221; according to the Chicago Tribune.<\/p>\n<p>The woman&#8217;s attorney argued that she should be able to file suit anonymously because &#8220;the case deals with abortion, an undeniably sensitive subject that has long been recognized as falling within the zone of personal privacy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The irony here is that after <em>Roe v. Wade<\/em> was overturned in the <em>Dobbs<\/em> Supreme Court decision in 2022, pro-abortion officials went to great lengths to protect the &#8216;privacy&#8217; of abortion patients.<\/p>\n<p>In 2023, the Biden-Harris administration &#8220;issued a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.federalregister.gov\/documents\/2023\/04\/17\/2023-07517\/hipaa-privacy-rule-to-support-reproductive-health-care-privacy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM)<\/a> to <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/biden-administration-change-hipaa-laws-abortion\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">modify<\/a> the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) Privacy Rule,&#8221; adding the new category of \u201creproductive health care\u201d which would &#8220;include abortion, <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/shielding-abortion-providers-consequences-women-risk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">shield abortionists<\/a> by prohibiting (under HIPAA) the release of protected health information (PHI) for <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/families-haunted-memories-loved-killed-legal-abortion\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">criminal or civil investigations<\/a>, and define &#8216;person&#8217; to <em>exclude<\/em> a human being in the womb (an embryo or fetus),&#8221; as Live Action News <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/biden-hhs-roe-medical-privacy-dehumanize\/\">previously reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>HHS said they did this because <em>Dobbs <\/em>&#8220;created new concerns about the privacy of [personal health information]&#8221; due to pro-life state laws either making abortion illegal or restricting it. &#8220;The Department is aware of reports that persons or authorities have reached or intend to reach beyond their own states\u2019 borders to investigate reproductive health care that has been performed in other states where that health care is legal. These actions present new concerns nationwide for the protection of health information privacy mandated by HIPAA,\u201d the proposal stated.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s also ironic, as abortionists don&#8217;t seem to be concerned with patient privacy when it suits their pro-abortion agenda; an <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/abortionist-violated-10-year-privacy-bold-claims\/\">Indiana abortionist<\/a> was <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/abortionist-reprimanded-violating-privacy\/\">reprimanded<\/a> and fined by the state medical board for violating patient privacy by going to the media with information about one of her patients, a 10-year-old rape survivor from Ohio \u2014 entirely for political reasons.<\/p>\n<p>Reisinger-Kindle has been sued before; he was a defendant in a 2021 <a href=\"https:\/\/abortiondocs.org\/abortionists\/keith-reisinger-kindle-do\/\">Massachusetts case<\/a> involving a woman with a <a href=\"https:\/\/abortiondocs.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Keith-Reisinger-Kindle-DO.-Massachusetts-Court-Case-12-15-2021.pdf\">high-risk pregnancy<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>The Bottom Line:<\/h2>\n<p>Despite the apparent egregious negligence exhibited by some abortionists, it seems they can <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/nebraska-abortion-facility-leroy-carhart-injury\/\">injure<\/a> and even in some cases <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/horrific-history-late-term-abortionist-leroy-carhart\/\">kill patients and still remain in business<\/a> to do more damage. If a physician is a danger to women, it is a public issue; seeking a gag order surrounding such an event appears to show little care for her, or for other women and their safety. Allowing that physician to continue practicing his trade is cause for concern.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b><i>Follow Live Action News on <\/i><\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/liveactionnewsonline\/\"><b><i>Facebook<\/i><\/b><\/a><b><i> and <\/i><\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/LiveActionOrg\/\"><b><i>Instagram<\/i><\/b><\/a><b><i> for more pro-life news.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An abortionist who perforated an Indiana woman&#8217;s uterus and left half of her baby&#8217;s body inside her body will be required to complete continuing education and has been fined a mere $5,000 \u2014 but he isn&#8217;t being prevented from committing abortions, even temporarily.
