5 fetuses found at home of DC anti-abortion activist Lauren Handy | wusa9.com

DC Police discovered five fetuses at the home of an anti-abortion activist in Capitol Hill on Wednesday, the department has confirmed to WUSA9....

The home was occupied by Lauren Handy, an anti-abortion activist who was indicted along with nine others Wednesday by a federal grand jury. Handy is accused of felony conspiracy against rights for a blockade inside a D.C. abortion clinic in October 2020.....

Handy declined to speak on camera Wednesday, but told WUSA9 she expected the raid to happen "sooner or later." She also declined to say what was in the coolers, saying only that "people would freak out when they heard."

​

Why on earth would someone keep fetuses in their home?

Oh my goodness that is insane. Did she get aborted fetuses in an attempt to save them but was unsuccessful? That whole story is very disturbing.

I've had a few interactions with her online. I understand she rescued their bodies for proper burial rather than disposal in the dumpster.

Some police in this city inspected a car and put drugs in the car, then blackmail the driver.

This has to do what with the topic?

The police could try to incriminate the driver, but a good forensics lab would throw it out:
no matching fingerprints on the bags.

Here is a statement by PAAU (Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising): Remains of Five Aborted Late Term Fetuses Given to D.C. Police for Investigation; 9 pro-life activists arrested by FBI in connected case.

Prior to the arrest, one of the defendants privately arranged for the Metropolitan Washington D.C. Police homicide unit to pick up five recently discovered late-term aborted babies for forensic examination. Their late gestational ages as well as their apparent sustained injuries potentially show violations of the Partial Birth Abortion Act as well as the Born Alive Infants Protection Act which are federal crimes.
. . . .
A Funeral Mass and “naming ceremony” was offered for the deceased babies - with the babies present, in which each child was named.

I've had my differences with her in the past but I think she is an absolute hero for these actions and she needs our prayers at this time.

I don't think heroes keep dead fetuses in their coolers, but maybe I have different heroes.

That's horrible.

Clearly it means that the police drive around with a cooler full of aborted fetuses to plant incase they come across a pro life person they want to frame.

Yes, thinking that’s an option would be delusional.

What a reductionist statement. Perhaps you missed this part of the post--see especially the last sentence in bold:

Their late gestational ages as well as their apparent sustained injuries potentially show violations of the Partial Birth Abortion Act as well as the Born Alive Infants Protection Act which are federal crimes.

Or this:

A Funeral Mass and “naming ceremony” was offered for the deceased babies - with the babies present, in which each child was named.

She wasn't keeping them in coolers "for the lulz" and they weren't going to stay there either. And do you think a dumpster is a more respectful place for the slain than a cooler?

I will hold judgement before deciding if she is a hero or not. From the article:

DC Police Executive Assist. Chief of Police Ashan M. Benedict told reporters Thursday the fetuses appeared to have been aborted in accordance with D.C. law.
​

That rules out late term abortions. The organization you quote from is questionable if they say they are late term abortions and the police say that they had been legal.

I wonder how she got them.

Why did police "discover" the fetuses in coolers if this was all on the up and up?

 

[FreeinChrist]

they got a tip about a biohazard. It is in the article.

So why weren't they buried with a proper mass?

 

[Hawthorne]

I don't know. Perhaps they didn't have a chance? I'm not sure of the timeline, that is how long the bodies were in possession before they were seized.

I understand she rescued their bodies for proper burial rather than disposal in the dumpster.

Fetal tissue is not disposed of in dumpsters, so why would she falsely claim otherwise?

5 dead fetuses are a tragedy, 115 dead fetuses are a statistic.
