Now, just a few days after that grisly discovery, in a <a href=\"http:\/\/connecticut.cbslocal.com\/2014\/09\/04\/police-fetus-flushed-down-toilet-found-in-two-pieces-at-sewage-treatment-plant\/\">sewage treatment<\/a> plant is Stamford, Connecticut, two halves of a human fetus were found by plant workers.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>At this particular sewage plant, larger pieces are separated from the smaller ones and the bigger items are sent through a tube directly into a dumpster. To \u201cthe top of the <a href=\"http:\/\/patch.com\/connecticut\/stamford\/unborn-baby-found-dead-stamford-sewage-system-0#.VAnKs2PIe30\">debris<\/a>\u201d in the trash bin designated to \u201cobtain <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dailynewsen.com\/local\/fetus-found-at-connecticut-sewage-plant-h2599612.html\">significant things<\/a>\u201d is precisely where this dead baby was headed when the plant workers recognized the tiny corpse.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, authorities are working together with the medical examiner\u2019s office to try and determine the identity of the dead baby\u2019s mother. Those investigating the case said that the fetus was about six months along, in two pieces, and swaddled in toilet paper. Authorities concluded that the baby <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wfsb.com\/story\/26437458\/fetus-found-at-stamford-plant\">had been flushed<\/a> down the toilet within 24 hours of when it was found.<\/p>\n<p>Stamford Police Lt. Diedrich Hohn said that \u201cAt this point, we can\u2019t tell if it was male or female.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In East Dallas, the baby found in the toilet bowl is no longer considered a criminal case because investigators with the Dallas Police Department have \u201cspoken to all involved\u201d and concluded that the tiny baby left in a Woodrow Wilson High School bathroom stall was left there after a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.myfoxdfw.com\/story\/26429578\/fetus-found-at-dallas-high-school-was-result-of-miscarriage\">miscarriage.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Similar to what happened in Dallas, the office of Stamford\u2019s chief medical examiner has already determined in an autopsy that the dead baby found in the sewage plant was likely also the result of a miscarriage. The main concern now is to find the woman who flushed her child to reassure her that she will not face criminal charges and to ensure that she received medical follow-up after her <a href=\"http:\/\/www.stamfordadvocate.com\/local\/article\/Fetus-found-in-Stamford-sewer-wasn-t-viable-5731496.php\">miscarriage<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Either way, relegating one\u2019s own flesh and blood to a toilet bowl or a dumpster by way of a sewage plant, regardless of whether or not the child was dead at birth, shows a deep disregard for the holiness and dignity of all life.<\/p>\n<p>One can\u2019t help but wonder if the child was in two pieces because at five- to six months gestation it was impossible for the baby to be flushed down the toilet.<\/p>\n<p>Stamford resident English Drakeford summed it up perfectly when he told a local Southern Connecticut news station, \u201cJust to flush them down the toilet, put them in the sewage system. That\u2019s barbaric.\u201d According to Drakeford, \u201cIt&#8217;s very heartbreaking.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Indeed it is. The Bible tells us in Jeremiah 1:4-5 that while we were being formed in the womb, God knew us and consecrated us unto Himself.<\/p>\n<p>Regardless of the reason, to give birth to what God has ordained, whether dead or alive, directly into a cold toilet bowl only to be flushed away is a sad example of our society\u2019s growing indifference toward the sanctity of God-given life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recently in Dallas, Texas, a school custodian found what authorities referred to as a \u201cdeceased fetus\u201d in a high school bathroom stall.
