Abortion Facility Building Walls Covered in Blood, Pro-Life Investigation Says
Life News ^ | 8/7/06 | Steven Ertelt

Wichita, KS (LifeNews.com) -- Pro-life advocates who purchased a building that formerly housed a Wichita, Kansas abortion facility say they have employed chemicals normally used to investigate crime scenes and found the walls of the room where abortions were performed completely covered in unseen blood.

Members of Operation Rescue, a pro-life group that purchased the former Central Women's Services abortion business building, conducted blood trace tests.

The group decided to test various surfaces and walls inside the building, which has remain unchanged since the pro-life group purchased it in June. The abortion business occupied the facility for 23 years.

Using a substance called luminol, a reagent that brightly glows in the dark when it comes in contact with even minute traces of human blood, the pro-life advocates found the walls to be blood soaked.

“The walls looked like there had been a chain saw massacre in there,” said Cheryl Sullenger, one of three people to conduct the tests. “We couldn't believe our eyes. We were absolutely shocked.”

She said that blood and other bodily fluid "simply flies during an abortion and that stuff all soaks into the dry wall and gets tracked into the carpeting where it putrefies."

In a statement obtained by LifeNews.com, Sullenger said that would explain the foul smell that permeates the building.

"There is no way to get rid of it aside from major demolition. From what we observed, there can be no such thing as a ‘safe, clean’ abortion clinic," she said.

Sullenger also said the smell and the results of the chemical tests were worse in a room where a massive garbage disposal was used to pack up the remains of an unborn child for disposal. The sink was used to wash the parts of the machines used to do abortions.

“It was a shop of horrors,” said Sullenger.

Last month, the group took members of the media in Wichita on a tour of the building.

Reporters from the Associated Press, WIBW-TV, and the Wichita Eagle newspaper were taken through each room of the former abortion center and shown the shoddy conditions, including out of code plumbing and utilities.

“They all seemed to understand that this abortion mill needed to close,” said Sullenger. “Most of them seem genuinely shocked by what they saw.”

However, in three articles written by reporters who attended the viewing, general references were made to the shoddy conditions inside but not of the very brief news reports described the problems at length or Governor Kathleen Sebelius' veto of bills that would provide for better inspections and regulation of abortion centers.

Kelly Simpson, former president of Central Women's Services, blamed the shoddy conditions on the moving of everything out of the building and indicated that none of the women going there for abortions every complained about its cleanliness.

The Central Women's Services abortion business will not likely reopen anywhere else and the rights to its name and web site were sold to George Tiller, who operates a late-term abortion business in Wichita.

Abortions were done twice a month at the time the abortion facility closed and Central was doing about 350 to 400 abortions each year.

The pro-life group has planned to do extensive renovations on the building and turn it into a memorial for unborn children who died there and a headquarters for the organization.

I agree with you. I'm so against the concept and practice of abortion but this sounds like BS.

And some pro-life groups, like pro-abortion groups, use propaganda and outright lies to promote their cause because they feel so strongly about it. They want to stop abortions as much as Planned Parenthood et al wants to keep them going - and both will do WHAT IT TAKES to win.

And not all pro-lifers are "religious zealots". I am not religious at all but it seems so patently obvious that vacuuming out fetuses/babies is simply wrong - one doesn't need a belief in Jesus to see that.

humblegunner, if it makes you feel better to think the pro-lifers made this up for effect....so be it.

Obviously I can't change your mind.

Suffice to say, I too am prolife...(as you say you are)...and I'm not a bit surprised there would be blood on the walls and an odor in these places.....

If you could only imagine the slaughter and the carnage...

My former wife fell down a cliff, really an embankment but she calls it a cliff.

She was pregnant at the time (not mine, we were teens) and the fall
injured her in such a way that she had to abort. There was no splattering.

She went on to become my wife and bear us two sons now nearing college.

Nothing splattered on any wall.

OK?

Well, I guess the story is effective--but wouldn't you find this in a lot of outpatient surgeries?



No you wouldn't ,, they would have tile or linoleum floors and hard surface walls ,, no carpet.. If they were using vacuum aspiration equipment a large amount of microscopic blood droplets would be aerosolized and sprayed around the room by the vacuum pumps exhaust and not captured in the "catch tank" ,, as the article states that the vacuum pump machine was cleaned in the sink with the garbage (baby) disposal that tells me that it was not a permanently plumbed in machine (which would likely be mounted outside the building for noise reduction) but rather was a portable..

I would use this "defect" in the building to cancel the sale if at all possible and try to get out of the deal... you could hose the entire building in Clorox and not make it safe to breathe in again.

Three women in my past have had abortions and not one of them was injured or hurt.

I'm guessing their children were not so lucky.

A good idea that could be applied to all similar areas throughout the wasteland.

Google shows Cheryl Sullenger to be a longstanding pro-life activist (to be kind), not a crime scene technician. I'd guess there's about zero chance these 'testers' knew what they were doing, or cared for any other result than exactly the headlines achieved.

IOW, BS.

I could be called a longstanding pro-life activist as well...

...we're everywhere :)

And guess what?

Being pro-life doesn't mean we're ignorant, or sensationalists.

This may surprise you, Grut, but many of us are educated and well informed......

C'mon....

I'm not promoting abortion, just stating that the premise of bloodstained walls is hyperbolic BS.

Luminol says that the abortion mills' walls were bloodstained. What's your point? That happens in any slaughterhouse. This one happened to be where they slaughtered unborn children. No hyperbole there at all, just uncomfortable truth.

Folks who'd put down carpet in a surgical suite would probably not particularly care about hygiene of any kind.

The type of medical personnel who graviate to abortion usually know why they're there and not something legitimate.
