EVIL: Baby fetuses found in warehouse owned by ‘body broker’

Reuters is reporting that full baby fetuses were discovered by the feds in a warehouse owned by a “body broker.”

Federal agents discovered four preserved fetuses in the Detroit warehouse of a man who sold human body parts, confidential photographs reviewed by Reuters show.

The fetuses were found during a December 2013 raid of businessman Arthur Rathburn’s warehouse. The fetuses, which appear to have been in their second trimester, were submerged in a liquid that included human brain tissue.

Rathburn, a former body broker, is accused of defrauding customers by sending them diseased body parts. He has pleaded not guilty and his trial is set for January.

How Rathburn acquired the fetuses and what he intended to do with them is unclear. Rathburn’s lawyers did not respond to requests for comment, and neither the indictment nor other documents made public in his case mention the fetuses.

“This needs to be reviewed,” said U.S. Representative Marsha Blackburn, a Republican from Tennessee who recently chaired a special U.S. House committee on the use of fetal tissue.

The pictures are really disgusting, so I don’t want to reproduce them here. They are in the original report from Reuters, although pixelated.

Reuters, as part of its reporting for this story, were easily able to purchase human body parts from Restore Life USA, which Reuters said was in Blackburn’s home state of Tennessee. For $900 plus shipping, the news organization bought two heads and a cervical spine from the body broker.”

How disgusting. It is unbelievable that such a horrendous evil exists in the greatest country in the world….
