‘Pull Off A Leg Or Two’: Planned Parenthood Staff Discuss Harvesting Baby Parts In Unsealed Footage

Newly unsealed footage that had previously been seized by Kamala Harris shows Planned Parenthood staff discuss harvesting baby parts and organs.

Newly released footage captured by undercover journalists in 2015 shows Planned Parenthood staff discussing the process of harvesting aborted baby parts and allegedly exposes a scheme to traffic them.

David Daleiden, project lead for the Center For Medical Progress (CMP), recorded the damning footage in 2015 at the National Abortion Federation’s (NAF) commercial trade show in San Francisco.

A court injunction stemming from California Attorney General-turned-Vice President Kamala Harris’ prosecution of Daleiden previously blocked the release of the footage. Thanks to a congressional subpoena and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., however, Daleiden was finally permitted to post hours of footage allegedly exposing Planned Parenthood’s gruesome practices nearly a decade after he collected it.

In the clips, Daleiden and one of his CMP colleagues who posed as representatives for a fake tissue procurement startup called BioMax, are heard discussing the sale of fetal body parts with individuals identified as Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast (PPGC) Chief Medical Officer Dr. Ann Schutt-Ainé and Vice President of Abortion Access Tram Nguyen.

“You have to come and play with our tissue and see if it’s cool enough for you,” Nguyen said at the beginning of the video.

Later in the clip, Nguyen brags about PPGC’s reputation as being “a little bit different than other providers.”

“I’m like, ‘Yeah, I have like a leg for you.’ I’m like, oh sh-t, if other people were to hear me, they’d be like, you are f-cking evil,” she said.

Prior to the Supreme Court’s Dobbs v. Jackson decision in 2022, the Houston facility allegedly employed several abortionists who were willing to kill babies well into the second trimester.

“If you want more intact ones, she’s the one you kind of need to talk to,” Nguyen said of Schutt-Ainé.

In an effort to deliver PPGC’s alleged clients the most desirable body parts but skirt the 2003 Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act, Schutt-Ainé claimed she does much of her dismemberments at the edge of the womb.

“If I’m doing a procedure, and I’m seeing that I’m in fear that it’s about to come to the umbilicus [navel], I might ask for a second set of forceps to hold the body at the cervix and pull off a leg, or two, so it’s not PBA,” Schutt-Ainé said.

The abortionist said her facility, on average, harvested five to 10 samples per week.

“Thirty to 50 is like a good number for the month,” Nguyen explained.

A bad sample, Nguyen said, only happened when those executing the unborn baby were forced to “hurry up” the gruesome procedure. She recalled one such example with a 16-year-old girl.

“Whereas like other days, it’s like more intact, where it’s, like, maybe only, like, an arm that’s disarticulated,” Nguyen concluded.

After the CMP’s plant noted that organs like the liver and thymus appeared to be in high demand by lab wholesalers, Schutt-Ainé confessed she adapted her abortion method to better preserve lucrative corpse pieces.

“You told me about the proposition, and so now every time I do a D&E [dilation and evacuation abortion], I’m like, ‘Oh, there’s some lungs, there’s some kidneys,’” Schutt-Ainé explained, before telling an unnamed coworker in the frame that she will eventually be “desensitized for playing with tissue.”

In another video, Schutt-Ainé claimed she could harvest livers and hearts “without too much difficulty at all” as long as the mother’s cervix is well dilated.

“When you have good dilation, a cervix that’s either well-dilated and/or just softer and more pliable, then as you bring the fetus down, you can get more of it out before disarticulation occurs,” she explained.

Schutt-Ainé and Tram also detailed how they use up to four forceps “passes” to scrape a baby’s remains out of the uterus to avoid scrutiny about whether it was a partial-birth abortion.

“If I’m doing a procedure, and I’m seeing that I’m in fear that it’s about to come to the umbilicus [navel], I might ask for a second set of forceps to hold the body at the cervix and pull off a leg, or two, so it’s not PBA,” Schutt-Ainé claimed.

After the videos were taken, CMP’s front company reportedly sent PPGC a contract offering thousands of dollars per organ. Tram and other staff members were allegedly “trying to move forward with the sales.”

When Daleiden accused Planned Parenthood of allegedly selling aborted babies’ body parts, especially those executed in the second and third trimesters, for commercial profit, the abortion giant repeatedly denied it. Instead, Planned Parenthood claimed the videos were “doctored” and said it only donates a small percentage of fetal tissue to various organizations conducting scientific research.

NAF, similarly, issued a statement expressing support for handing out tissues from abortions “with the potential to help millions of Americans suffering from diabetes, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, muscular dystrophy, leukemia, and other serious medical conditions.”

“There is no financial gain for women or health care providers involved,” NAF claimed.

These claims fueled lawfare by Harris, who colluded with Planned Parenthood and NAF to target Daleiden for exposing the abortion giant, according to his attorneys. Part of the prosecution involved a raid on Daleiden’s house, where investigators allegedly seized footage further implicating the abortion giant and handed it over to Harris’ abortion campaign donors.

To this day, Daleiden still faces eight felony charges and possible jail time for allegedly recording videos without permission and using a fake ID to maintain access to abortion facilities.
