FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: April 25, 2005
Orlando, FL Angele, a single mother in her thirties with two children, thought that abortion was the answer to her circumstances. At almost 23 weeks gestation, she entered the EPOC Clinic in Orlando, Florida. Little did she realize that the next day she would give birth to a live, perfectly healthy boy whom she named Rowan. Cradling Rowans moving body, her screams for help were ignored by abortion clinic workers while her son took his last breath.
The clinic is known for late-term abortions and its well-known founder, Dr. James Pendergraft. A few years ago he served time in a federal prison regarding an alleged scheme to extort the city of Ocala, Florida by means of his other abortion clinic in that city.
On April 1, Angele was given Valium and laminaria were inserted in her cervix to begin dilation. She was told to return the following day. On April 2, Angele took prescribed medicine to induce labor. Cramping and crying, she went to the clinic and knocked repeatedly on the door. Eventually someone came and directed her to a room that had dried blood on the wall. She was given a blanket that was still wet. She began to bleed and go into labor. Despite her cries, no one assisted her. After one hard push, the baby was born, fully intact and definitely alive. Angele said, His right leg moved. He curled up a bit, like he was cold; I screamed but no one came. She pleaded for the clinic workers to call 911 but they did not.
Angele caressed and comforted her son by rubbing his back, tummy and chest. I stroked his precious little head and kept telling him I loved him and we would be okay, she said. Still no one came to help. Eventually Angele, holding the baby still attached to the umbilical cord, ran to get her cell phone. Help did not arrive in time. Rowan took his last breath.After a few minutes I realized for certain that he was gone. I picked up my son. I held him to my chest. I rocked him and prayed. I could not stop crying, said Angele. I felt so bad. I felt so helpless. I had been so wrong to come here I wanted to fix and change everything once I saw Rowans precious little face and body. All we needed was someone to get us to safety, Angele said.
Mathew D. Staver, President and General Counsel of Liberty Counsel, which represents Angele, stated: When I visited baby Rowan at the funeral home and saw his precious little body, fully formed with blond eyelashes and growing fingernails, I wondered, How can we continue to kill our children and hide behind the rubric of choice? Rowans short life will not be in vain if his story can give life and hope to mothers who believe their only choice is abortion. Rowan joins the ranks of thousands of children who die each day by abortion. Most have no names and we never see their faces. We must restore a culture of life. We must protect our precious, innocent children. We must extend a healing hand to mothers like Angele. The rhetoric and the politics of abortion must be replaced by a culture of life.
Photographs of Rowans fully intact, perfectly formed body are posted in his memory at LC.org.

Here is a case where a "Four Dimensional" high resolution sonogram would have easily convinced this woman not to turn her baby over to these blood thirsty murderers and convicted felons.
Pardon my French, but I hope she sues and puts those f**kers out of business.
"Perhaps this childs death-story will convince someone out there not to make such a horrific decision."
One can only hope, but it seems that Satan's voice is getting louder everyday and a reckoning is due.

She asked for the abortion. They didn't hold her down. AND she left the kid to die in a TOILET.
It will.
You talk as though the wpman was a retard who didn't know exactly what she was doing.

She won't win. Any good sleazy civil trial lawyer worth his weight in feces will ask one question, "Tell us why were you there?" Once that cat is out of the back mom has culpability, not the murder store.
Sweet Lord in heaven! We are one sick society.
Irrelevant.
They didn't hold her down.
Irrelevant.
AND she left the kid to die in a TOILET.
I don't see that in today's press release.
Signed up yesterday, eh? You don't sound like you're very pro-life, n00b.
Rowan was born alive on April 2, 2005, after an attempted abortion in Orlando, Florida. Rowan died in the abortion clinic after birth.
I am particularly sensitive to this issue right now as we just lost a daughter @ 21 weeks last month.
I keep asking why my daughter when so many are unwanted?
That's sick.
And the sick chick who left her aborted baby boy to die in an icy toilet is pro-life????

Irrelevant, false dichotomy.

Baby Boy Rowan Aborted into Toilet and SURVIVES
NOTE: The full story is embargoed until Monday, April 25, 2005.
Date of Incident: April 2, 2005
At nearly 23 gestational weeks old the little boy fought bravely when he was delivered alive as a result of an induction of labor abortion. As soon as she caught sight of her beautiful son, Rowan's mother experienced an epiphany. Here are excerpts from the testimony of what she saw after her child was delivered:
"His right leg moved. I screamed ... pants down, blood everywhere ... I pushed my pinkie into his little hand and his fingers curled around mine.... My entire life and my moral views changed drastically once I saw my son moving ...... nothing else in the whole world mattered but Rowan's safety! I fell immediately in love with my baby boy and all my fears about having him fell away. Only one thing mattered to me, getting Rowan help."
Rowan's mom repeatedly begged the clinic employee to call 911. To this frightened and concerned mother's horror the abortion staff simply turned away, refusing to provide any assistance or care for her baby boy. They would not call for paramedics to come to Rowan's rescue.
Rowan's tiny fingers curled around his mother's. He struggled to survive for eleven long minutes. Little Rowan finally succumbed, perishing in the icy waters of the clinic toilet.
At the request of the broken and desperate mother the perfect body of Little Rowan is currently being held in cold storage at a local funeral home. She is determined to have the precise details of how her baby died exposed. State authorities have steadfastedly refused to autopsy the infant.
Rowan's grieving mother has come forward to tell the truth. She desires to seek justice for Rowan and all the infants who suffer through second and third trimester abortion death murders, tell the truth about her second trimester abortion and she is willing to tell the details of her tragic story, including the names of all abortion clinic employees involved in the abortion death of her son. Rowan's mother has asked for assistance, writing:
"Please help me help other mothers and children!"
Rowan's mother is being represented by Liberty Counsel (434-592-3287). She is willing to be interviewed and is scheduled to be on O'Reilly Factor next week. Attorney Erik Stanley is also available to discuss the case.
Photos of Rowan will be available through Liberty Counsel's website beginning Monday, April 25th. http://www.lc.org The mother of Rowan is naming names and discussing what happened to her and her son at an Orlando abortion mill. If not, or in addition, Erik would come on and discuss the case.
How many times are you going to spam that link onto this thread? I've already read it.
Maybe soros can hire schiavo's lawyer, what's his name? felonious, to defend this "clinic".
