She Buried Their BodiesThe left blames Lauren Handy for "tampering" with the remains of the more than 100 aborted children she discovered in Washington, D.C.

The disfigured corpses of more than 100 aborted children were recovered in Washington, D.C. late last month by a pro-life activist named Lauren Handy. They were reportedly found in a box on a medical-waste truck on their way to be incinerated. In an act of perfect moral inversion, the only person facing prosecution in connection with the children’s deaths is the woman who discovered their remains.
Handy claims to have found the remains of 115 unborn children in a medical-waste container in a truck departing from Washington Surgi-Clinic, an abortion clinic in Washington, D.C., late last month. She says five of the recovered children were aborted post-viability. Photos of the five viable children’s remains were leaked to the anti-abortion group Live Action.
The first child pictured in the report is called “Baby Boy #1.” He is fully formed, roughly the size of a healthy newborn. One of the neonatologists quoted by Live Action estimates his gestational age at 32 weeks. The child’s limbs are discolored, jaundiced from decay. His head is shriveled like a prune and stomach distended. His mouth is frozen agape and eyes swollen shut. The skin on his left leg is peeling.
The second child, “Baby Girl #1,” is curled in the fetal position. Her face is misshapen, and her head is stuck to her chest. There are deep lacerations on the back of her neck. She has all ten of her toes—they’re pinkish, and at a glance could be mistaken for the feet of a live newborn.
“Baby Girl #2” is pictured third. All that remains of her little body are severed limbs and a portion of her spine. A neonatologist interviewed by Live Action believes the child was decapitated during a “dilation and extraction” abortion.
The last child pictured is blue from apparent oxygen deprivation. The baby’s sex is unknown.
Handy allegedly came to possess the remains after confronting an employee of Curtis Bay Waste Management, who was loading what he supposed to be medical waste from Washington Surgi-Clinic to the back of his truck to be disposed of at the company’s industrial-grade incinerator. In her telling, she asked the employee if he knew what was in the boxes. He did not. Handy told him she believed the boxes contained the remains of aborted children, which shocked the employee. She asked if she could take one of the boxes from the truck.

The company denies having given Handy the box and says it does not incinerate fetal remains. Handy posted a photo of the box with a label from Curtis Bay Waste Management.
Then, Handy claims she and a friend opened the box and were aghast at what they saw—the remains of 110 “pre-viable” and five “post-viable” children, the latter she believed to have been killed illegally.
Handy then did what she told the employee she would do—she buried the children. She contacted a priest, who performed a Catholic rite of burial for the 110 pre-viable children at an undisclosed cemetery.
Given the graphic deaths of the five late-term babies in the box, Handy supposed they could have been victims not only of an unthinkable moral crime, as had the other 110, but a crime recognized even by the civil authority. She reported the deaths of the five post-viability infants to the D.C. Metropolitan Police Department’s Homicide Unit, which came to Handy’s house to investigate.

The man who allegedly performed the abortions at Washington Surgi-Clinic apparently will not be charged. Dr. Cesare Santangelo, the abortionist at the D.C. clinic, admitted to an undercover reporter in 2012 that he has allowed babies born alive during the abortion procedure to die.
