73. Apparently they're evidence

Of late term abortions. I thought they may have been on to some kind of Pet Sematary thing.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/dc-medical-examiner-has-no-plans-to-autopsy-fetuses-removed-from-antiabortion-activist-e2-80-99s-home-officials-say/ar-AAVLQX8

The city medical examiner does not plan at this time to perform autopsies on the five fetuses police removed from a Capitol Hill rowhouse earlier this week, according to two D.C. officials with knowledge of the case, even though the group involved in their discovery claims the fetuses were all late-term abortions performed illegally

The fetuses were found in a basement apartment occupied by Lauren Handy, a well-known local antiabortion protester and director of activism for Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising.

PAAU said in a statement Thursday evening that it received the fetuses from a “whistleblower” who worked at Washington Surgi-Clinic, a D.C. abortion clinic, and had arranged for police to pick them up because they believe the fetuses were aborted illegally.

The clinic declined to comment, but its website says it performs abortions up to 27 weeks of pregnancy, which is at the very end of the second trimester.

Handy and other members of her group scheduled a news conference Tuesday where they said they would share details.
