ALAMEDA, CA, August 19, 2015 (LifeSiteNews) – A former procurement technician who helped harvest organs at Planned Parenthood said she saw a baby boy's heart beating outside his body before the child's body parts were extracted.
Holly O'Donnell, a former procurement technician at StemExpress, said at an abortion facility in Alameda, California, a co-worker named Jessica brought over the most fully developed baby she had ever seen and said, “I want you to see something kind of cool.”
There she saw the “closest thing to a [fully-developed] baby I've seen.”
“It had a face. It wasn't completely torn up,” she said. “Its nose was very pronounced.”
“She has one of her instruments, and she taps the heart, and it starts beating.”
“I'm looking at this fetus, and it's heart is beating,” O'Donnell said in astonishment.
“I don't know if that constitutes it's technically dead, or it's alive,” she continued.
Dr. Ben Van Handel, the vice president of Novogenix Laboratories, says on the video “there are times when, after the [abortion] procedure is done, that the heart is still beating.”
O'Donnell said that, after showing her the child's beating heart, Jessica told her, “This is a really good fetus, and it looks like we can procure a lot from it.”
She then asked O'Donnell to remove the baby's brain with scissors through the baby's face.
“I can't even describe what that feels like,” O'Donnell said. “That was the moment I knew I couldn't work for the company anymore...even if it was the cure for some disease.”
The video – the seventh released by the Center for Medical Progress – underscored revelations made in previous videos that Planned Parenthood officials alter the method of abortions they perform - not out of medical necessity for the mother - but in order to obtain a baby's body intact.
Intact fetal cadavers fetch higher fees, as they maximize the amount of organs and fetal tissue available for experimentation by biotech companies.
Perrin Larton, the procurement manager at Advanced Bioscience Resources, says, "I literally have had women come in and go in the OR [operating room] and they're back out in three minutes."
The doctor told her, "The fetus was already in the vaginal canal whenever we put her in the stirrups. It just fell out."
The first video, which was released just over a month ago, caught Planned Parnethood's senior director of medical services Dr. Deborah Nucatola saying that abortionists will often “change the presentation” of the baby to maximize the number of organs they can preserve intact.
Discussing the harvesting and sale of fetal organs over a business lunch of salad and red wine, Nucatola said she would look at the organs the biotech company wanted and decide during the abortion, “I’m not gonna crush that part. I’m gonna basically crush below, I’m gonna crush above, and I’m gonna see if I can get it all intact.”

She then described a procedure identical to a partial birth abortion, which has been a federal felony since 2003.
In the fifth undercover video Melissa Farrell, the director of research for Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast, admitted "we deviate from our standard" protocol so that "we are able to obtain intact fetal cadavers."
“Sometimes they come out really intact,” a tech at the Houston facility told CMP investigators.
Farrell added that she found dissecting aborted babies "sickening on some level, but it’s fun."
O'Donnell had a different reaction.
Near the end of the new, 10-and-a-half-minute-long video, O'Donnell said after an abortion, she would often hold the child's body in her hands and ponder what the child's future may have been.
“This could be the next president,” she said. “I wonder at age three if she would like to color.”
Lost in thoughts of the unborn child's potential, she said, “I feel like it's a waste of life, and it's sad that so many people view it as a mistake.”
The videos have provoked a public backlash and spurred Republican leaders at both the state and national level to investigate and defund Planned Parenthood, the nation's leading provider of abortion.

Disgusting...I just don’t understand the lack of absolute outrage at this...What happened to our collective sense of decency? Why is it those who cry out against these atrocities are the ones painted as lunatics and crazies?!?
Each “letter to the Editor” I submit is more and more gruesome - this will be a tough one for me to write.
God help us all.
They also go into public school to encourage kids to have sex and hand out pamphlets to HIV patients telling them they have a right to spread their disease.
These might be “good parts” of PP
And we sit on the sidelines just like German citizens who knew the Nazis were slaughtering innocents.
Worse, we’re not under fear for our lives by protesting or speaking out— just embarrassment and ridicule from the murderers and their enablers.
Will be watching. Maybe Greg Gutfeld can stab him with his unicorn ;-)
Jesus wept.
.......“They do good things that aren’t having to do with abortion.” - Donald Trump
The ‘only’ solution is to shut these abortion clinics down.....start all over with PRO-Life groups to assist Non_abortion Dr.s..... All previous Abortion Dr.s and assistants who “Harvested” baby parts charged and arrested.
Dear God, please help us. Please soften our hearts to hear the cries of the unborn. Have mercy on us, even though we don’t deserve it. We thank and praise You for Your mercy. In the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen.
Not just tears, nausea. I read the report of this video, but I haven’t been able to watch one since the first for fear of spewing my lunch on to my keyboard.
I don’t normally have a weak stomach, but this is beyond any level of evil and cruelty that I have ever seen.
I want a poll that shows the above picture of the baby and asks:
Do you support federal funding be given to PP for the purpose of cutting open the faces of live babies with beating hearts so that their brains can be removed intact, and the rest of them cut up to be sold to "research" facilities?
Not all Americans know about this butchery, it's just now breaking into the national conscience.
The forces of evil are going to do everything they can to cover this up- but, at least it's out for all the world to see. No more "blob of tissue" lies- Thank the Lord for that.
I believe these videos are asking us to make a choice- Either choose life and repent- Or return to darkness of feigned ignorance and be damned.
The videos must be shown to as many people as possible.
Lord have Mercy on us ..
Satan and his ilk are present and working harder than we are... My wife asks me why I am so depressed all the time, I tell her because I am watching the death of my country and my descendants’ future.
As long as half of our side opposes abortion only so long as we treat the issue like a “soup kitchen” for women problem, “pro-life” is a joke.
Yes. Notice the videos are being released gradually, allowing time for us to digest its content. Each new video is more horrific, building on the previous one, like a slow drip faucet. It's only a matter of time before the American people come at them with torches and pitchforks.
Please pray for Holly and all those who are risking their lives to unmask the horrors being committed at Planned Parenthood and its customer base. They are walking targets for those who seek revenge.
Something to consider that might make you a little less depressed: It appears that almost every generation faces this.
In the late 1700's, everything was stable, then these revolutionaries destroy our relations with our mother country, England!
In the early 1800's, we faced America's first boom-to-bust economic cycle, many MANY banks went under!
In the late 1800's, everything was stable, then the country split in two! Literally! The Civil War!
Then in the early 1900's, everything was stable, then America nearly collapsed in the Great Depression!
Then, in the mid 1900's, things finally stabilized, then World War II threatened America's existence.
Then in the 1950's and early 1960's things stabilized, then America started having riots and student protests, tearing the country part!
Now it's the early 2000's, and we face the same problems we have faced every single generation.
So don't despair.
Amen!
Even during the time of Lot those cities could have been saved for just a few good people. I'm hoping places like Free Republic and others, shows there is still enough good God-fearing people in America that America might be eventually saved and the corrupt liberal/progressive bastions of America be destroyed. I accept his will for us, whatever that may be.

Maybe, but now it seems that at least half of our people are assisting in the suicide by vote, stupidity, or passivity.
