A funeral will be held for Baby Shanice Denise Osbourne in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, next week, over 26 months after she was born alive during an abortion, shoved into a biohazard bag, and tossed on the roof of a Hialeah abortion mill to die.
Clinic owner Belkis Gonzales, a woman with no medical background, delivered the African-American baby girl after the mother reported to the abortion clinic complaining of discomfort. She had started the process of abortion the previous day. Abortionist Pierre Renelique was contacted when the patient reported to the clinic but never answered his page.
According a police affidavit, the mother "observed the baby moving and gasping for air for approximately five (5) minutes. The staff began screaming that the baby was alive; at which time, Ms. Belkis Gonzalez cut the umbilical cord, threw it into a red bag with black printing. Ms. Gonzalez then swept the baby, with her hands, into the same red bag along with the gauze used during the procedure."
The bag containing Shanice was tossed onto the roof of the abortion clinic to conceal her body from police. A clinic worker informed police of the incident and Shanice's body was recovered.
An autopsy indicated that the baby's lungs contained gas bubbles and floated, proving that Shanice was alive and breathing at birth.
Gonzales is the subject of a current grand jury investigation, which will likely result in her being charged in the Baby Shanice's death. The abortion clinic where Shanice died has since closed.
The funeral will be held on October 14, 2008, at 11 AM at Queen of Heaven Cemetery, 1500 S. State Road 7, in Ft. Lauderdale. The ceremony will be officiated by Rev. O'Neal Dozier. Former presidential candidate Dr. Alan Keyes will deliver the eulogy. The public is encouraged to attend.
"We rejoice that Baby Shanice will finally be laid to rest with the dignity and love she was denied in her short life, and we pray her killers will soon be brought to justice," said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman. Operation Rescue helped break the story of Shanice's death, published documentation of the incident, and helped pressure the authorities to act.
"We also pray that the African-American community will rise up and say, 'Enough!' to the exploitation and decimation of their community by predatory abortionists such as Gonzalez and Renelique," said Newman.
Mine too...
I was never able to have children, and that has always broken my heart.
Then I read something like this and thought my heart couldn’t break anymore...
“The staff began screaming that the baby was alive”
What, they’re so used to seeing dead babies, that a live one made them scream? Good God...
This reminds me of a song I heard years ago. I think the bands name was Truth. There was a verse that said “We have programs designed to save the earth, while unborn children are denied their right to birth, one babies blessed, another cursed, have we made this world better or worse when the life of a tree comes first”. Of course in this case you have a child who they tried to deny that right, and she made it anyway...Why is it so easy for people to just destroy this child! And then there is the fact that I have to share the same city with Tiller the Killer. I better not get started on that...
This is so horrifying I cried! And the mom didn’t try to stop them, which shows she didn’t care. She is just as guilty as the Gonzalez woman.
This beautiful soul will be buried in the same consecrated cemetery as my late Father in-law and Mother in-law. She will be surrounded by many other Angels.
God Bless the innocent!
Why,oh why has Obama never been made to answer for his opposition to BAIPA?My daughter was going to vote for him.She has 5and1year old daughters.I told her about it and she was sickened.

Sick. It’s no wonder this nation is going down. How can you be prosperous with crap like this being ok?
We're too damn close to him right now for my comfort.
Which is why my prayer at election times is that we get the leaders we need and not the leaders we deserve.

Like it was some cockroach in the corner...oh dear God, forgive us for ignoring this!
“we deserve Satan for POTUS”
Speak for yourself.
If I didn’t read Florida, I’d swear that this was about a third world country.
**************************************************
Miami is a third world country.
I agree...the sinking feeling tears at me.
I wish that they would give me the children...somehow I would raise them...with help from my friends!
a country that doesn’t have enough folks who can tell the difference between killing babies for conevenience and obsessing over pets instead is not worthy of God’s grace in my opinion...not that pets aren’t great and all...I have several
you can digest that anyway you’d like mom
we are at a crossroads if Obama wins....on that issue
the only thing in our favor is that the judges most likely to resign or die are the leftist ones
maybe that is God’s tiny mercy in all this
If there is nothing wrong, why hide the body? Residual guilt? A small fragment of a conscience?
Putting newborns in a plastic bag and tossing them onto a roof to die. It’s what liberals do.
Now is most certainly a time to pray for God's mercy....
