5 reasons why Planned Parenthood knows the ‘baby parts’ videos are true

One year ago, when the Center for Medical Progress (CMP) released videos detailing Planned Parenthood’s harvesting and trafficking of fetal body parts, Planned Parenthood was quick to try to cover it up.

The non-profit’s CEO Cecile Richards went into damage control mode to attempt to assure supporters and patients that everything in the videos was a lie. But their claim that they were simply collecting reimbursements for donated fetal body parts didn’t add up. They’ve known all along that the information presented in the videos was true — and here are five proofs:

1. In the CMP videos, Planned Parenthood employees admit that the appearance of profit from fetal body parts would be a public relations disaster.

1. Planned Parenthood admitted in the CMP videos that they were dancing around the illegality of fetal body part sales.

1. Planned Parenthood’s Senior Director of Medical Services admitted on video to taking orders from clients to find out which body parts were in demand. She also admitted to altering abortion procedures in order to obtain the valuable parts.

1. Planned Parenthood’s Senior Director of Medical Services described on video how she believes breaking a law can be “up to interpretation”:

1. Planned Parenthood had no policy in place for fetal body parts harvesting and admitted that this was a calculated move. If there are no policies or guidelines, then the umbrella organization of PPFA stands a better chance of protecting its reputation, should one affiliate be caught selling body parts.

Planned Parenthood announced that they would stop accepting compensation for fetal body parts within months of the release of the first undercover video. Each of the videos can be viewed at CenterforMedicalProgress.org.
