The first was in 2000 and followed a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lifedynamics.com\/Abortion_Information\/Baby_Body_Parts\/\" target=\"_blank\">31-month investigation that began in 1997 by the pro-life group, Life Dynamics<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sfarchdiocese.org\/docs\/default-source\/social-justice-and-life\/licentiate_thesis1.pdf?sfvrsn=2\" target=\"_blank\">Evans details<\/a> the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lifedynamics.com\/Abortion_Information\/Baby_Body_Parts\/\" target=\"_blank\">Life Dynamics report <\/a>&#8211; from 15 years ago:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">\u201cLife Dynamics\u2019 report describes a system devised within the abortion industry to financially profit from the growing market in fetal tissues, parts and organs. The system circumvents legal restrictions on buying and selling human bodies or body parts. Three participants are commonly involved&#8212;the &#8216;seller,&#8217; the &#8216;buyer,&#8217; and the &#8216;wholesaler.&#8217; The wholesaler (or middleman) enters into a financial agreement with an abortion clinic (the seller) to pay a monthly &#8216;site-fee&#8217;, comparable to rent, to the clinic. In exchange, the wholesaler is allowed to position a retrieval agent inside the clinic, where he is given access to the dead fetuses and a workspace to harvest their parts.&#8221;(<a href=\"http:\/\/www.sfarchdiocese.org\/docs\/default-source\/social-justice-and-life\/licentiate_thesis1.pdf?sfvrsn=2\" target=\"_blank\">33<\/a>)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lifedynamics.com\/Abortion_Information\/Baby_Body_Parts\/index.cfm?&amp;print=1\" target=\"_blank\">Life Dynamics notes:<\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">&#8220;On the surface, this system does not appear to violate the legal prohibitions against trafficking in human body parts since, technically speaking, no one is buying or selling anything. The loophole is that site fees and retrieval reimbursement amounts are unregulated. The law requires that such payments be reasonable and reflect the actual cost of securing the parts, but there are no state or federal laws which establish guidelines or sets limits regarding these payments. Additionally, no governmental or law enforcement agency is charged with overseeing the system.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">This means that the wholesaler is free to set site fees and retrieval fees at any amount. Despite the fact that the baby parts business is teeming with profound moral implications, and despite the fact it has enormous potential for financial abuse, it is allowed to operate on the honor system.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<div id=\"attachment_67091\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-67091\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-67091\" src=\"https:\/\/www.liveactionnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Screen-Shot-2015-07-18-at-7.26.04-AM-300x220.png\" alt=\"A price sheet from StemExpress, one of the fetal parts buyers Planned Parenthood works with.\" width=\"300\" height=\"220\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Screen-Shot-2015-07-18-at-7.26.04-AM-300x220.png 300w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Screen-Shot-2015-07-18-at-7.26.04-AM-700x513.png 700w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Screen-Shot-2015-07-18-at-7.26.04-AM.png 762w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-67091\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A price sheet from StemExpress, one of the fetal parts buyers Planned Parenthood works with.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The parallels between the original Life Dynamics report and what we are seeing now are eerily familiar; the conversation with\u00a0Dr. Deborah Nucatola\u00a0 and the undercover actors echos the report from 15 years ago &#8211; down to the body parts.<\/p>\n<p>Apparently the liver has always been a popular commodity.

The Democratic Party leadership is widely known to be beholden to the abortion industry for its significant financial support. What may be less widely known is that the Republican Party routinely receives substantial financial contributions from the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. These facts of political life made sure the hearings went no further. The biggest obstacle in trying to stop the trafficking of baby parts was the fact that the Democrats were in bed with the sellers and the Republicans were in bed with the buyers\u201d (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.sfarchdiocese.org\/docs\/default-source\/social-justice-and-life\/licentiate_thesis1.pdf?sfvrsn=2\">36<\/a><em>).<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>But Evans said this week that the current investigation may be different because our political climate is different.

Coverage of the investigative report conducted 15 years ago was at the mercy of the mainstream media, which effectively buried the story or made Planned Parenthood the victim. Today, exposure of this video has been immediate and far-reaching, disgusting a worldwide audience. The mainstream media was forced to report on it. Presidential candidates were forced to comment.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Not only did House Speaker John Boehner immediately, publicly, and with great disdain announce congressional hearings to investigate Planned Parenthood, but at last count, five states jumped on the bandwagon as well. These states and a significant number of others have pro-life Republican legislatures and governors, guaranteeing more than just a cursory look at its business practices. Further indicating that the tide may be turning, states have enacted 51 new abortion restrictions so far in 2015, bringing the number of restrictions enacted since 2010 to 282. \u201c<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<div id=\"attachment_50867\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-50867\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-50867\" src=\"https:\/\/www.liveactionnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/human-fetus-300x193.jpg\" alt=\"As Americans have seen the baby in the womb, abortion has become more and more distasteful.\" width=\"300\" height=\"193\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-50867\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">As Americans have seen the baby in the womb, abortion has become more distasteful and horrific.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Finally, Evans says that because fewer people today are comfortable with abortion-on-demand at any stage of pregnancy,<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">\u201cThis time there appears to be sustainable public outrage.
