Gosnell Horror: A Baby 'Swimming' In a Toilet, 'Trying to Get Out'

Elizabeth Harrington at CNSNews.com reported on horrors described on the last day of testimony before the prosecution rested in the murder trial of abortionist Kermit Gosnell.

Kareema Cross, a “medical assistant” who worked at Gosnell’s Women’s Medical Society clinic for four-and-a-half years, testified that she saw one late-term baby who survived an abortion "swimming" in a toilet and "trying to get out."

"Did you ever see those babies move?” asked Prosecutor Joanne Pescatore.

“Yes, once in the toilet,” said Cross.

The baby “was like swimming,” she said.  “Basically, trying to get out.”

Cross told the jury that when Shayquana Abrams came into the clinic in July 2008 she was pregnant, “and she was big.”

“That was the largest baby I ever saw,” Cross said.

When the baby was born alive, Abrams was sleeping. Cross said Dr. Gosnell took the baby boy, which she described as 12 to 18 inches long, and put him inside a plastic container the size of a shoebox.

“The baby was still breathing,” she said. “He didn’t cut the neck right there.”

The baby was too big for the plastic container, with his arms and legs hanging over the sides.

“The Doctor cut the back of the baby’s neck but didn’t do suction—normally Dr. Gosnell would do suction … to suck the brains out,” Cross said.

“I called people over to come see it [the baby] and we took pictures,” she said...

“It was supposed to go upstairs in the freezer, but it was still there the next day because the janitor complained,” Cross added.

She said Dr. Gosnell told her “the baby is big enough that it could walk to the store or the bus stop.”

Eventually the baby boy went in the freezer, Cross said.

In another story, Harrington added the grand jury report in 2011 had more awful detail: “James Johnson, who supposedly cleaned the clinic and bagged its infectious waste, confirmed Lewis’s account. He testified that sometimes patients ‘miscarried or whatever it was’ into the toilet and clogged it...He described how he had to lift the toilet so that someone else – he said it was too disgusting for him – could get the fetuses out of the pipes.”

I would never work in a place like this (baby murder clinic), but I dare say I would’ve killed this son of a bitch where he stood the first time I saw something like this.

Gosnell is making Dr. Mengele look like an amateur.

When someone says they’re “pro-choice,” remember: this is the “choice” that they’re “pro”.

There is no punishment on earth suitable for this monster. Only God’s vengeance can suit this devil. Although I would love to have about an hour with him.

If ever a man justified the idea of vigilante justice-being taken from the hands of the authorities and hanged-this is the one. I have never heard of such a horrible monster.

Being that the American judiciary never met a criminal it could not favor; I fully expect this individual to escape justice.

The only punishment befitting this crime is to have his spinal cord snipped above where his lungs can function. He needs to gasp for air.

Gosnell might want to consider running foe public office. He could easily get elected in just about any blue state.

You know...I have seen a lot and heard even more in this life.

I have a strong stomach and being a police officer I am never surprised by how low humanity sinks.....

This story is just too much for me....I can’t believe...I don’t want to believe that human beings can see little babies...helpless creations of God...suffering such torture and cruelty right in front of their eyes and not step forward and stop it.

I have seen people show more compassion and humanity towards injured opposums lying on the side of the road than these folks exhibited each day they went to work watching precious babies being butchered like lab experiment tissue samples.

May God have mercy on their souls.

We can only hope for eternal reincarnation for this despicable animal. Let him be born a million times and be butchered each and every time, and each time he is may it be more excruciatingly painful than the last. A fitting punishment

Remember, this “doctor” performed abortions for many years and no one said a word. None of the Pennsylvania pro-choice politicians ever acknowledged that legal abortions are brutal. To be willing to destroy your own innocent, unborn child like this is a manifestation of evil.

And we have a President who is mostly OK with this, and an American citizenry that doesn’t care.

This is what happens when you have people in office who get donations from the abortion industry.

This is what happens when most Americans don’t care.

What a hellhole this country has become.
