GRUESOME ABORTION DISCOVERY DRAWS ACTIVISTS ON ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY
WASHINGTON D.C.— Beginning March 19th and ending on March 25th, anti-abortion activists with the group Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising (PAAU) will gather from across the nation to Washington DC for a ‘Week of Action’ demanding #JusticeForTheFive aborted babies discovered one year ago by PAAU leaders Lauren Handy and Terrisa Bukovinac.
On March 25th 2022, Handy and Bukovinac were given a box labeled “medical waste” outside the Washington Surgi-Center, an all term abortion business run by Cesare Santangelo, “The Butcher of DC”. Inside the box were the remains of 115 aborted victims, five of which were very late-term.
After allowing a priest to bury the younger 110 children, PAAU activists arranged for the DCPD to obtain the remains of the older five because at least three of them appeared to have been either born alive and then killed or killed by a partial birth abortion, both of which are violations of federal law under the Born Alive Infant Protection Act and the Partial Birth Abortion Ban Act.
The bodies of the five remain in the hands of the DC Medical Examiner, and while more than 60 members of congress have signed letters to Attorney General Merrick Garland, the DCPD, and Mayor Bowser, there’s still been no autopsy.
Justice cannot wait!
PAAU activists are taking to the streets and have a week of activism planned to bring the voices of these children to the people and to congress. We are demanding hearings for these victims, accountability for their killer, and a national ban on abortion at viability when a baby can live outside the womb.
