CINCINNATI, Ohio The state of Ohio has agreed to pay the abortion giant Planned Parenthood over $45,000 in attorneys fees and costs in a settlement over discoveries that the bodies of aborted babies had been picked up by medical waste companies to be steam-treated or incinerated, and then dumped in landfills.
As previously reported, Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine, who identifies as pro-life and believes that abortion is morally reprehensible, announced the finding about Planned Parenthoods practice in December. First steam-cooking fetuses and then disposing of them in a landfill is not humane, he said. It will come as a shock to Ohioans to find out that fetuses are being cooked and then theyre being put in a landfill, and theyre going to be mixed in with the garbage and whatever else goes into a landfill.
DeWines office had been investigating whether Planned Parenthood facilities in the state were selling the body parts of aborted babies following the release of national undercover videos from the Center for Medical Progress.

Last week, after Ohio officials agreed not enforce the law and consented to paying the abortion giants attorneys fees, the two sides moved to dismiss the suit. Officials were also satisfied after Planned Parenthood advised that it was no longer doing business with Accu Medical and that babies were now being incinerated instead of autoclaved.

Repulsive.
Disgusting.
WHY would they pay Planned Abortion’s attorney fees when Planned Abortion is in the wrong?
Maybe OHIO should consider seceding ...
Because Dewine is another spineless RINO.
A world turned upside down.
BTW, Satan just resigned as Prince of Darkness, stating that there was just too much competition and he felt like he was way in over his head.
It is not our world but God’s world.
Hail Marys like what DeWine did (considering the law considered this a permissible way to discard medical waste) are but vain stunts without first laying our entire needs upon God, even those that we think don’t require God.
When we really learn to care about God (and I mean as our merciful Savior and Provider and Best Love) then God will begin to back up what we do to help those God cares about.
But if we just look on these abortionists as wrecking “OUR” world... God’s very likely going to just sit there and let them do it till we acknowledge that it, and us, are “HIS.”
And in the meantime people will utter stupid blasphemies.
Well then!
That makes a big difference.
I'm sure the babies would be happy to hear that - if they hadn't aready been killed in the womb.
No need to worry about enforcing the law now.

He said that the practice is illegal as it violates Chapter 3701-47-05 of the Ohio abortion law, which states that a fetus shall be disposed of in a humane manner.
Accu Medical Waste Service, Inc. in Marietta had been serving the Cincinnati and Columbus Planned Parenthood locations, and had transported the containers of aborted babies to its steam plant where they were autoclaved and then trucked to a landfill in Kentucky. The company soon severed its ties with the abortion industry due to adverse attention over the matter.
The medical waste giant Stericycle, which serves the Bedford Heights Planned Parenthood, had been picking up aborted babies from the location and either having them steamed or incinerated, depending on how Planned Parenthood had marked the boxes. The fetal remains were then trucked to Republic Services Carbon Limestone Landfill in Lowellville after being treated.
As DeWine said that he planned to file for an injunction in court to require that Planned Parenthood cease disposing of aborted babies in autoclaves, incineration plants and landfills, Planned Parenthood subsequently filed for a restraining order against any legal action, and prevailed. The organization asserted that the human manner clause of the law was vague.
Last week, after Ohio officials agreed not enforce the law and consented to paying the abortion giants attorneys fees, the two sides moved to dismiss the suit. Officials were also satisfied after Planned Parenthood advised that it was no longer doing business with Accu Medical and that babies were now being incinerated instead of autoclaved.
Its always a benefit to understand what the law is before you are told you are not in compliance, Planned Parenthood attorney Jennifer Branch said in a statement. Its always good to have cases disposed of because its such a distraction and it causes a concern for patients and the staff. So it is good that this one has been put away.
[We are] very pleased that the General Assembly intends to establish clear standards which ensure that the gruesome practice does not continue in Ohio, spokesman Dan Tierney told the Columbus Dispatch.
As previously reported, in April, Rep. Robert McColley, R-Napoleon, and Rep. Barbara Sears, R-Sylvania, crafted crafted H.B. 417 and 419, which would require that the babies be either buried, cremated or incinerated. If incinerated, they must be burned by themselves, as medical waste companies had mixed mixed the containers of baby body parts in with trash.
The bills also require that mothers give directives as to how they want their child disposed.
The bill was approved by the House Health and Aging Committee, but was criticized by pro-abortion groups as another way to punish women and the medical community for abortion.
I think people of all stripes can see that this is superficial. The problem here is “turning the unborn babies into medical waste.” Not in mingling said waste with ordinary trash and treating the whole as medical waste.
We are quibbling about what kind of patina is on the idol.
Because they won. They always win now. It's the new normal.
And it’s because a sea change is needed. The Master of the Sea is waiting for an honest call of utter dependency upon Him, even if it takes everything else we try just failing miserably before we will utter that call.
Another good reason I just left OH.
for where ?
If it were a gorilla, it would have been an entirely different matter.
Dear God!
I feel that way too.
