Office of the Chief Medical Examiner ultimately collected the children\u2019s remains.\u00a0Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising confirmed the home belonged to Lauren Handy, 28, who is the group\u2019s director of activism. In a statement on Friday, the group said Handy was trying to turn the babies over to the police for an investigation.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cDetails are forthcoming but the Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising (PAAU) group, to which this activist belongs, believes the \u201clate gestational ages as well as their apparent sustained injuries potentially show violations of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.congress.gov\/108\/plaws\/publ105\/PLAW-108publ105.pdf\">Partial Birth Abortion Act<\/a> as well as the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.congress.gov\/bill\/107th-congress\/house-bill\/2175\">Born Alive Infants Protection Act<\/a>. The group also announced that a funeral mass and naming ceremony was offered for the babies,\u201d according to Live Action News, the publishing arm of pro-life organization <a href=\"https:\/\/www.liveaction.org\/?gclid=CjwKCAjwi6WSBhA-EiwA6Niokzzk2BUlrH2gBu2BAIhtU1KlwRbbTsJFYKIt6cjQ8qc7lutm3pGQMBoCaJoQAvD_BwE\">Live Action<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Live Action alleged that the bodies were discovered at the\u00a0Washington Surgi-Clinic, which is reportedly operated by Dr. Cesare Santangelo. Live Action previously <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=NxOWyumLufA&#038;t=273s\">released<\/a> an investigation of the clinic and Santangelo after he was recorded saying \u201che would let an aborted child die if that child survived outside of its mother,\u201d according to the report.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe would do things \u2013 we would \u2013 we would not help it,\u201d he told an undercover investigator in 2013:<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Let\u2019s say.

You know? You wouldn\u2019t do any extra procedures to help that person survive.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Executive assistant chief of police Ashan M. Benedict in a Thursday <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=BzrHrG6BcCs\">news conference<\/a>\u00a0said the babies \u201cwere aborted in accordance with D.C. law, so we are not investigating this incident along those lines.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere doesn\u2019t seem to be anything criminal in nature right now about that, except for how they got into this house,\u201d Benedict said. \u201cSo we\u2019ll continue to look at that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, physician experts told Live Action News upon reviewing photographs of the aborted babies, that they \u201cappear to have been viable human beings, raising questions about potential legal and serious ethical violations by the abortion clinic.\u201d Live Action News did not explicitly detail how it obtained the photographs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI can say with confidence that these babies died at an age when they were viable, premature people\u201d Neonatal specialist Dr. Robin Pierucci told the publication on Friday, adding that she cares for \u201clittle ones this age and size\u201d at the NICU where she works.<\/p>\n<p>The pro-life news source noted that while D.C. does not have a ban on late-term abortions, federal laws forbids medical professionals from performing certain kinds of abortions or denying life-saving care for babies born alive after \u201cbotched procedures.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B3\" class=\"a8d adSo\"><\/figure>\n<p>Live Action alleged that one of the aborted children was a baby girl who \u201cmay have experienced an illegal partial birth abortion.\u201d A photograph taken of the child shows her with her right eye open and damage to her head, though the rest of her body was mostly intact. Neonatalist\u00a0Dr. Kendra Kolb told the publication the baby girl was likely 28-30 weeks gestational age, \u201cwith evidence of deep lacerations to the posterior neck which presumably correlates to the method of abortion used to end her life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEven if all of these babies were aborted \u2018legally\u2019, it is without question and crystal clear to see that this practice is neither ethical nor empowering to women. This is the American horror story that we call \u2018choice\u2019 on full display for all to see,\u201d Kolb said.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>Former abortionist and now a pro-life advocate Dr. Kathi Aultman told the publication that while she could not conclude exactly how the baby died, the abortionist would have committed an illegal partial birth abortion if the baby was alive at the beginning of the procedure.<\/p>\n<p>Another photograph allegedly taken of one of the aborted babies shows the child still in its amniotic sac. Aultman told Live Action News that given the state of the child, \u201che or she may very well have been born alive and then left to die.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is not possible to determine the sex in this view,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B4\" class=\"a8d adSo\"><\/figure>\n<blockquote>\n<p>It is difficult to discern the gestational age, but this baby is probably in the late 2nd or early 3rd trimester. An Induction method would have been used for the abortion. Unless this baby was injected with a drug designed to kill prior to the abortion, he or she may very well have been born alive and then left to die. Without rupturing the amniotic sac, it would not have been possible to cut the cord to cause fetal death before the abortion<span>.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span>Live Action founder Lila Rose said the photographs could be \u201chorrific and disturbing evidence of infanticide.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe discovery of these bodies is horrific and disturbing evidence of the infanticide that may be occurring in this clinic within our nations\u2019 capital, and indicative of the violence happening in abortion facilities nationwide,\u201d Rose said.<\/p>\n<p>PAAU tweeted on Thursday saying the organization plans to address \u201cclaims surrounding the 5 deceased children found at Lauren Handy\u2019s apartment at a press conference in DC\u201d on Tuesday at 11:30 am Eastern.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">We will address the claims surrounding the 5 deceased children found at Lauren Handy\u2019s apartment at a press conference in DC.
