Contaminated
Tissue from Abortion Clinics, Squeamish Researches Pose Hurdles to
Profitable Fetal Parts Trafficking Says Planned Parenthood Partner
Operation Rescue continues to call for criminal prosecutions of Planned Parenthood officials who are breaking the law
August 25, 2015
Washington,
DC - Early this morning, the Center for Medical Progress released their
ninth video exposé on Planned Parenthood's participation in illegally
selling fetal body parts for profit.
Today's
installment focuses on one luncheon meeting with actors posing as
representatives of a biotech company and StemExpress' CEO Cate Dyer.
Dyer
explains how her relationship with Planned Parenthood has been a
profitable one because of the increasing demand for fetal tissue.
Planned Parenthood provides the volume they need to keep up with the
demand, which StemExpress struggles to fill. Fetal livers, in particular
are in such great demand that her business cannot keep up.
Dyer was seeking a partnership with the actors, hoping to increase her supply of fetal tissue products.
"What would make your lab happy?" the buyer asked.
"Another fifty livers a week," Dyer responded without hesitation.
"We're
working with, you know, almost triple digit number of clinics. So it's a
lot on volume, and we still need more than what we do. So it's a lot,"
she said.
According
to Dyer, StemExpress does about half their fetal tissue procurement
business with Planned Parenthood and the other half with "independent"
abortion clinics. But she explained, "Planned Parenthood has volume,
because they're a volume institution."
Dyer said she feels great support from Planned Parenthood CEO Cecile Richards and Senior Medical Director Deborah Nucatola.
"You
know, Everyone at PPFA and just the affiliates - I just think you're
either in the cause or you're not. And if you're not in the cause, like,
they don't need you around," Dyer said. "The need champions, and if
you're not a champion, then you should go. Because that's just, you know
- I don't know, the clinics, they're very guarded, as they should be.
Who do they let in their house? They want champions in their house.
Right?"
"There
can be no doubt of the profit motive behind Planned Parenthood's
participation in the illegal selling of aborted baby remains. If they
say otherwise, they are just trying to deny their part in criminal
conduct. Right now, everyone at Planned Parenthood is trying to save
their own hides from criminal prosecution," said Troy Newman, President
of Operation Rescue who sits on the Board of the Center for Medical
Progress. "We continue to call for criminal prosecutions for all Planned
Parenthood executives who are breaking the law."
