An unlicensed doctor pleaded guilty on Thursday to third-degree murder in the deaths of two late-term babies who were born alive and then killed with scissors at a filthy Philadelphia abortion clinic.
Steven Massof, 49, of Pittsburgh, pleaded guilty to two counts of third-degree murder, murder conspiracy and other charges.
Massof testified to a grand jury that he snipped the spines of more than 100 babies after seeing them breathe, move or show other signs of life.
"Severing the spinal cords of moving, breathing babies outside their mothers' wombs was, according to Massof, 'standard procedure,'" the grand jury report centered on Dr. Kermit Gosnell's clinic charged.
"Gosnell encouraged his staff to kill babies born alive; Lynda Williams, Adrienne Moton and Steven Massof all followed his barbaric example," said the nearly 300-page report, issued in January.
Gosnell, 70, is charged with killing seven babies and a woman who died after a botched abortion at his Women's Medical Center. He has pleaded not guilty.
The jaw-dropping grand jury report described filthy, inhumane conditions at the clinic, which served many poor and immigrant women.
Massof is the fourth of 10 defendants to plead guilty in the case.
Moton, a medical assistant, pleaded guilty last week to third-degree murder in the 41-year-old patient's death from an overdose of anesthesia that she helped administer. Medical technician Sherry West pleaded guilty the same day to third-degree murder in a newborn's death.
Massof's plea involved two babies allegedly stabbed by Gosnell while Massof assisted with the abortion. A foreign medical school graduate without a license, he worked for Gosnell for a few hundred dollars a week.
"Massof testified that Gosnell taught him and showed the scissors-in-the-neck technique to 'ensure fetal demise.' Gosnell's students parroted his grisly techniques," the grand jury report said.

All of these Dr. Mengele types should be hunted down and killed wherever they are found.
Licenses are issued by the state. Degrees in medicine are issued by medical colleges. One can get a medical degree and earn the title, “Doctor”, but not have a state issued license to practice.
“What, pray tell, is an “unlicensed doctor”??”
He or anyone like him is a “Doctor” because of his/her education. In order to practice medicine in each state one must have a license. Just like a driver’s license. He knows how to be a Medical Doctor he was just not licensed by the state he was working in.
I could only scan the column.
Were the victims primarily black?
I heard of a technique I wish someone would show this guy and unlike the one used by these animals the victim is a consenting adult who will beg you, to put it in clinical terms, "to ensure their demise".
"Massof testified to a grand jury that he snipped the spines of more than 100 babies after seeing them breathe, move or show other signs of life."
This is what our elected "representatives" stand up and defend as someones "right to choose", "discovered right to privacy" or even as "family planning". This is what comes from seventy years of almost uninterrupted fascist democrat majorities controlling Congress. What comes from generatioins ignoring the fact that the democrat party is now and always has been a racist, fascist, criminal organization dedicated to the overthrow of the Constitution and the establishment of a society in their own image. A society where their hand picked nobility own as property everyone not a part of or particularly useful to their fascist state.
Hitler and his pals adopted US democrat eugenics and aparthied methods while the US democrat fascists adopted the propaganda and academic indoctrination methods of Hitler and his thugs. It was a marriage made in heaven as the ability of the democrat fascist machine to retain almost uninterrupted control of both houses of Congress since WWII shows.
JMHO
I’m not sure. It does say that it served mainly poor and immmigrant women, so that leads me to believe that a lot of the babies were minority.
Especially if they were minorities, news of this Concentration Camp should be exploited to combat all abortions.
Where is the outrage? A nation that accepts institutionalized murder will certainly accept death panels.
Then what? What will be the next social justice horror to be imposed on an unwilling people by the Left?
