These two articles were written after only the first video had been released.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Deborah Nucatola was clear that profiting was better than mere reimbursement (emphasis mine):<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">I think for affiliates\u2026they want to break even. <strong>And if they can do a little better than break even<\/strong>, and do so in a way that seems reasonable, <strong>they\u2019re happy to do that<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Legally, however, &#8220;seeming reasonable,&#8221; is not reasonable. In this case, it would amount to breaking the law. Proof that Planned Parenthood has profited off the sale of baby parts is also implicit in Dr. Mary Gatter&#8217;s admission in the full footage version of the second video.<\/p>\n<p>Gatter explained that at Planned Parenthood Los Angeles, &#8220;we didn\u2019t have to do anything. There was compensation for this.&#8221; Getting compensation <em>for doing nothing<\/em> is called profit, not reimbursement. This really isn&#8217;t a difficult legal concept.<\/p>\n<p>Gatter also went on to say (emphasis mine):<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Well let me agree to find out what other affiliates in California are getting, and <strong>if they\u2019re getting substantially more, then we can discuss it then<\/strong>. \u2026 I mean, the money is not the important thing, <strong>but it has to be big enough that it is worthwhile<\/strong>. &#8230;<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">It\u2019s been years since I talked about compensation, so <strong>let me just figure out what others are getting<\/strong>, if this is in the ballpark, it\u2019s fine, <strong>if it\u2019s still low then we can bump it up<\/strong>. I want a Lamborghini. [laughs]<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Legally speaking, reimbursement is based on <em>your own personal costs<\/em>, not on &#8220;what others are getting.&#8221; Planned Parenthood&#8217;s Dr. Deborah Nucatola, in the first video, stated that the payments would vary, based on clinic. She seemed to have some concept of the price varying based on how it looked, at least. Not so with Gatter. If others are getting paid more for a baby liver, she wanted to be paid more!<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Big enough that it is worthwhile&#8221; is the talk of profit, not reimbursement. Reimbursement is not &#8220;big,&#8221; and rarely &#8220;worthwhile.&#8221; Bumping up a &#8220;low&#8221; price based on the market is clear evidence of profit, not reimbursement.<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>2) Committing Illegal Partial-Birth Abortions<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-67013\" src=\"https:\/\/www.liveactionnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/partialbirthabortion-300x166.jpg\" alt=\"partialbirthabortion\" width=\"300\" height=\"166\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/partialbirthabortion-300x166.jpg 300w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/partialbirthabortion.jpg 672w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>One has to look no further than the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.law.cornell.edu\/uscode\/text\/18\/1531\">Federal Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act<\/a> and the U.S. Supreme Court case that upheld it, <a href=\"https:\/\/scholar.google.com\/scholar_case?case=7079370668659431881&amp;q=%22unborn+persons%22&amp;hl=en&amp;scisbd=2&amp;as_sdt=ffffffffffffe03&amp;as_ylo=1974&amp;as_yhi=2015\"><em>Gonzales v. Carhart<\/em><\/a>, to know that partial birth abortions done for the purpose of collecting baby parts are illegal. Plain and simple.<\/p>\n<p>Nucatola tries to reason away the law:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Partial-birth abortion. It\u2019s not a medical term, it doesn\u2019t exist in reality. \u2026 [N]umber 1, the Federal Abortion Ban is a law, and laws are up to interpretation. So there are people who interpret it as intent. So if I say on Day 1 I do not intend to do this, what ultimately happens doesn\u2019t matter. Because I didn\u2019t intend to do this on Day 1 so I\u2019m complying with the law.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Yet despite her attempt, she&#8217;s been caught with her pants down, or her baby half-delivered, so to speak.<\/p>\n<p>The federal law says that it is illegal to &#8220;deliberately and intentionally&#8221; perform a partial-birth abortion (and yes, partial-birth abortion is detailed in the law and in <em>Gonzales<\/em>). And no, there are no &#8220;technicalities of intent&#8221; here. When a man commits rape, does it matter what his intent the day before was? Or does his intent in the moment of his deliberate action count, for legal purposes?<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t think that answer is difficult to come by.<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>3) Illegally Manipulating Abortion Procedures<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_67680\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-67680\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-67680\" src=\"https:\/\/www.liveactionnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Screen-Shot-2015-07-22-at-3.54.35-PM-300x235.png\" alt=\"10 week baby.

To be influenced by something is even to take it into consideration. It is abundantly clear that Planned Parenthood is more than happy to modify, change, and manipulate its abortion procedures, again and again, to collect fetal tissue.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.centerformedicalprogress.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/PPFAtranscript072514_final.pdf\">According to Nucatola<\/a>, the &#8220;reasonable&#8221; standard for an abortionist is to change abortion procedure to provide body parts to a buyer.

She instructs the buyers how to get other abortionists to do the same, encouraging them to meet up with the abortionists &#8211; specifically so they will be more likely to modify their procedures to collect tissue.<\/p>\n<p>For the sake of time, however, we will move to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.centerformedicalprogress.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/PPFA020615_transcript.pdf\">Mary Gatter<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Gatter explicitly advocates for throwing off federal law and the regulation on not changing abortion procedure. In yet another legal problem, Gatter also indicates that women&#8217;s informed consent matters very little to her. She goes to town <a href=\"http:\/\/www.centerformedicalprogress.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/PPFA020615_transcript.pdf\">explaining her willingness to violate law<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">So that\u2019s an interesting concept. Let me explain to you a little bit of a problem, which may not be a big problem, if our usual technique is suction, at 10 to 12 weeks, and we switch to using an IPAS or something with less suction, and increase the odds that it will come out as an intact specimen, then we\u2019re kind of violating the protocol that says to the patient, \u201cWe\u2019re not doing anything different in our care of you.\u201d Now to me, that\u2019s kind of a specious little argument and I wouldn\u2019t object to asking Ian, who\u2019s our surgeon who does the cases, to use an IPAS at that gestational age in order to increase the odds that he\u2019s going to get an intact specimen, but I do need to throw it out there as a concern. Because the patient is signing something and we\u2019re signing something saying that we\u2019re not changing anything with the way we\u2019re managing you, just because we agree to give tissue. &#8230; I\u2019m not making a fuss about that.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Gatter even later goes on to admit that she knows this is wrong, when she rejects extra payment specifically designated for the change in procedure: &#8220;you\u2019re shading into the area of you\u2019re paying me to do<strong> something that\u2019s not right<\/strong>.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Did you catch that? <em>Something that&#8217;s not right<\/em>.
