Wichita, KS - June 24, 2008 - A murder investigation has been opened involving Shelley Sella, a California abortionist employed by George Tiller, who is reported to have intentionally stabbed to death an infant born alive during an abortion at Tiller's Women's Health Care Services abortion clinic in Wichita, Kansas.
Operation Rescue reported the incident to the Wichita Police Department after a former Tiller employee, Tina Davis, told Troy Newman and Cheryl Sullenger of the stabbing in April. It is believed that the alleged infanticide took place sometime in the past two years.
In addition, the incident has been reported to the Kansas State Board of Healing Arts, which has confirmed that the case has been assigned to an investigator.
Abortionist Shelley Sella is a "circuit rider" who splits her time between Tiller's Wichita clinic, a California Planned Parenthood clinic, and other, smaller abortion mills.
"Ms. Davis gave us a very specific eye-witness account about the incident," said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman. "We were told that the baby was 35 weeks gestation at the time of the abortion. The baby came out and was moving. Sella looked up at Ms. Davis, then picked up a utensil and stabbed the baby in the left ribcage, twisting the utensil until the baby quit moving. At 35 weeks, there is no doubt about viability. This is murder in anybody's book."
"We understand there are unique challenges to getting charges filed in this case since the body would have been cremated at Tiller's on-site crematorium. Without a body, any murder case becomes more difficult," said Newman. "However, because of the brutality of this murder and the gravity of this charge, we are compelled to demand that Tiller's clinic be closed by the State until a full inspection and investigation can take place, and that the medical licenses of Sella and her boss, Tiller, be immediately suspended."
"We have every reason to believe that the story she told us was true," said Newman. "We have been able to confirm many of the other things she told us. Ms. Davis came forward because she was troubled by what went on at the abortion clinic, and was seeking peace. We pray she finds it."
I can’t say what I want to say.
Isn’t the Governor of Kansas up for Obama’s Veep? Man, I hope he picks her
I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that his justice cannot sleep forever.

As I sit here today preparing to help my friends bury their 16 month old daughter and knowing the level of their devastation over their loss, the rage I feel towards the muderers whp practice abortion is almost unmeasureable...
“The baby came out and was moving. Sella looked up at Ms. Davis, then picked up a utensil and stabbed the baby in the left ribcage, twisting the utensil until the baby quit moving. At 35 weeks, there is no doubt about viability. This is murder in anybody’s book.”
Not very much different than the legal practice of partial birth abortion, or even “conventional” abortion itself.
Just more visible.

May God confine these monsters to the seventh circle of HELL!
This is the kind of hate the pro-babykiller mindset has produced. The more it goes on, the worse it will get.
Will this get as much media coverage as Rodney King, Matthew Shepherd, and Don Imus?
More floods, fires, hurricanes coming.
I gave birth to my twins at 35 weeks gestation. They will be 20 years old next month.
My God.....
It’s so easy to pass judgement on those German citizens who rode past the camps every day and said nothing....
Every abortion is a murder. Some 'choice' we have here.
No, of course not. It would hurt the Nobamasiah in an election year since he supports this (as far as I’m concerned not voting to save them is the same as sanctioning their murder).
Oh my. What a dark soul. And obama PROPOSED legislation that this child should just have been left unattended to die. Sick sick sick!
I’m having a hard time buying this story.
I don’t know if it happened or not but it’s very easy for me to believe. If a person can kill a baby (abortion) why would they have qualms about how to do it?
Explain.
The alleged act is simply the natural extension of the abortion on demand philosophy - and not much of an extension at that. What was the space from the womb to the table on which the child was stabbed - a couple of inches?
Anyone who had no problem with an abortion in this instance (I’m assuming the mother’s life was not in danger) but somehow finds the stabbing objectionable is suffering from a profound delusion that there is a distinction here.
I have little doubt this story is true, but given the state of judges and politics in Kansas, I doubt a thing is going to be done. Tiller and his minions are protected by Sebellius, the Democrats and the sickening Kansas RINOs.
