An Indiana news station has discovered that aborted babies are being shipped from out of state to an Indianapolis medical waste facility in violation of a state permit.<\/p>\n

\"Medassure<\/p>\n

Rafael Sanchez, a reporter with Indiana ABC affiliate RTV-6<\/a> said that the Indianapolis medical waste company MedAssure will be fined by the state after receiving aborted babies from an out-of-state Planned Parenthood clinic.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The information stemmed from a report <\/a>filed by the Attorney General of Missouri on the Planned Parenthood abortion facility in St Louis. The report details 317 abortion performed by Planned Parenthood in June of 2015, many raging from 13 – 20 weeks gestation. The report <\/a>also showed that Reproductive Health Services of Planned Parenthood of St Louis Region paid Pathology Services in Brentwood, Mo. over $4000.00 for the disposal of medical waste. The company has since been the focus of protests <\/a>by pro-life activists.<\/p>\n

\"Planned<\/p>\n

According to the document, the AG’s report also revealed that the Indianapolis MedAssure was receiving Planned Parenthood’s aborted babies.<\/p>\n

Sanchez explains:<\/p>\n

\n

“Documents point to Pathology Services Incorporated of Missouri and MedAssure of Indianapolis.<\/p>\n

“Under their 2012 state permit, MedAssure can handle and treat medical waste and transport the waste to a final disposal facility. It can’t handle or process fetal remains.”<\/p>\n

\"Medassure<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

A spokesperson for Indiana Department of Environmental Management told LifeSiteNews <\/a>that they have levied a fine of $9,000 against MedAssure for violating its contract with the state.<\/p>\n

“The company was not permitted to receive this waste, was specifically asked to not receive this waste” in the contract, explained the spokesperson, who also said that MedAssure has been “incredibly cooperative with us and agreed to resolve” the issues “quickly,” LifeSite News reported.<\/p>\n

MedAssure’s Executive Vice President, Joseph Delloiacovo released the following statement to RTV-6, stating that MedAssure:<\/p>\n

\n

Is fully aware of its permit conditions and fetal remains cannot be processed at our facility. Our policy prohibits taking such waste.<\/p>\n

It should also be understood that the generator is responsible for segregating waste items before packaging the waste for pick-up by MedAssure according to federal and states law and other provisions under contract.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The controversy over where abortion clinics can ship medical waste has been an issue for years following the discovery of medical waste companies like SteriCycle discarding of fetal remains. The issue was raised at a recent National Abortion Federation Conference where undercover journalists from the Center for Medical Progress recorded a Michigan abortion clinic owner joking <\/a> that she wanted to take aborted babies from her clinic into a field and burn them because she lacked places to dispose of them. In addition, Renee Chelian, owner of the Michigan abortion facility chain, Northland Family Planning, suggested <\/a> to her audience that the disposal problem belongs to the women who pay her to abort their babies.<\/p>\n

As Live Action News previously reported<\/a>, Chelian, who worked with Stericycle, said she was overwhelmed with the remains of baby parts stockpiling in her facility freezers. For five months, Chelian described how aborted babies were packed in freezers, and she had to find a way to discard of them. No company seemed willing \u2014at first\u2014 to help her staff dispose of the remains. She told<\/a> the members at the 2014 National Abortion Federation conference that her clinics could perhaps buy <\/a>a plot in Detroit for incinerators and if all else failed, the garbage disposal was also an option:<\/p>\n

\n

Nobody wants to talk about dead bodies. Um, and nobody but me. I\u2019m just saying. There was a point when Stericycle fired us that I had 5 months worth of fetal tissue in my freezers. We were renting freezers to put them in.<\/p>\n

It was all I thought about, was fetal tissue. Like, I was so consumed with fetal tissue, I was ready to drive to upper Michigan and have a bonfire. And I was just trying to figure out, you know, how I wouldn\u2019t get stopped. Or, you know, how far into the woods would I have to go to have this fire that nobody was going to see me\u2026 I mean it was the worst, I dreamed about how to dispose of fetal tissue. And the garbage disposal was an option\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

After the Missouri investigation of Planned Parenthood revealed their association with the Brentwood Pathological company, St Louis Today<\/a> reported that Mike Hoey, Missouri Catholic Conference executive director, sent a letter to Pathology Services Inc. saying its “lab workers are part of the assembly line of the abortion industry.”<\/p>\n

\n

“By agreeing, in advance, to take the human remains of these children aborted while in utero, you are facilitating this taking of innocent human life,” Hoey wrote<\/a>. “Knowing this, your only moral recourse is to say “NO, we will no longer cooperate, we will no longer help kill unborn babies.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Marc Tuttle, spokesperson for Right to Life of Indianapolis noted <\/a>that the investigation by RTV-6 is shedding light on fetal disposal in Indiana just as the state legislature is considering new legislation that would require humane disposal of all babies killed through abortion.<\/p>\n

House Bill 1337<\/a> passed the Indiana House last week and was recommended to the Senate where it is currently under consideration.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
