Another Abortion "House of Horrors" in TX

[n david]

This makes my blood boil. Especially knowing the President, as a state legislator, was against preventing this from happening and refused to vote on a bill that would force these murderers to give life-saving medical care to babies who survive the attempted murder.

Houston doctor Douglas Karpen is accused by four former employees of delivering live fetuses during third-trimester abortions and killing them by either snipping their spinal cord, stabbing a surgical instrument into their heads or 'twisting their heads off their necks with his own bare hands'.

Edge said fetuses were killed well after 24 weeks gestation at the Houston clinic, which resulted in a sweat-inducing job that took about an hour per procedure. She said every morning on multiple occasions she would see fetuses born alive and then quickly killed by the doctor.

'When he did an abortion, especially an over 20 week abortion, most of the time the fetus would come completely out before he either cut the spinal cord or he introduced one of the instruments into the soft spot of the fetus in order to kill it.... or actually twisting the head off the neck with his own bare hands,' she explained.

'It was still alive because it was still moving and you could see the stomach breathing.'

The women described one occasion where a fetus that Karpen thought was dead suddenly 'opened its eyes and grabbed (the doctor's) finger' after he wrenched it from the womb. However, it met a similar fate to the other fetuses at the clinic, the women said.

'He thought it was dead but the fetus actually opened its eyes and grabbed his finger,' Aguliar said. 'He was alive. He thought it was deceased already. He was getting ready to put it in the back.'

They also recounted occasions when women were so far along with their pregnancy they were actually induced into labor and in two cases their fetus' came out while they were in the bathroom.

Rodriguez described another incident where a patient's fetus fell from her and onto the floor in the clinic's waiting room.

'(Karpen) just picked it up with a Chux and put it in the trash bag,' she said.
There needs to be an immediate cease and desist of all abortion and planned parenthood clinics. The President needs to request the DOJ open an investigation into each and every single abortion/PP clinic to see how many other "house(s) of horrors" there are. The DHHS needs to send inspectors to every clinic where these innocent babies are murdered to make sure there aren't any other Gosnells or Karpans.

Just days ago, DOJ AG Holder was asked by AZ Congressman Trent Franks about the Born Alive Infant Protection Act, and how many of the approximate 18,000 violations of that act per year are investigated and prosecuted by the DOJ. It was a telling moment, as Holder first said, well that was a law passed under the former administration; said he wasn't aware how many times it was prosecuted by the former administration. Rep Franks corrected Holder and asked how many of the 18,000 per year Holder's office prosecuted. Holder said he didn't know. The reason is because they haven't prosecuted anyone. And the reason they haven't prosecuted anyone is because this President and administration doesn't believe babies should have any kind of protection. Obama was against protecting survivors as a state legislator; he's still against giving them protection - or even justice when murdered - as President.

I hope this murderer is arrested, tried, convicted, and put in the TX death row express lane for what he did.

Wonder how long it will take the media to report on this... The link is from the UK. Unfortunately, US media is too protective of the administration and abortion to report on it.

Betting you won't see this at all. i learned of it through the BBC. It will be just like Kermit all over again. Blind eyes all round.

[Jermyn Davidson]

It's happening in Texas???

You WANT the Feds to get involved in this?

Why not petition Mr. Perry to take care of this and other mind-boggling things that are happening in that state every week!

[Hoovie]

Jermyn, capital murder, if carried out by members of a national group may very well become a Federal issue. Especially if even more cases pop up in other states.

I think this is SOP for late term abortionists - not an anomaly. I pray they all go to jail and face capital murder charges.

[KeptByTheWord]

If someone could kill an innocent baby with his bare hands... what other atrocities is he also capable of! Someone who could do something so sick as this... has lost his soul to the evil one.

And... how could those people standing by watching these things not be considered part of the evil also? Why did their conscience not stand up against the evil happening in front of their eyes? Aren't they guilty by association too?

Jermyn, God bless you son. You were in the armed forces, correct? I appreciate your service to this country. I write this so as not to attack you personally, because my first draft response would likely have resulted in a note from Admin.

1) Yes, it's happening in Texas.

2) Yes, the Feds need to be involved. Why? Because of the aforementioned Born Alive Infant Protection Act of 2002. It is the responsibility of the DOJ, led by the man President Obama nominated, Eric Holder, to prosecute each and every violation of this act. Holder said he couldn't think of one case that's been prosecuted, out of the 18,000 violations which occur each year.

See, we pass all these laws, but then don't enforce them. We passed laws on guns, but don't enforce them. Chicago is dead last in prosecuting gun violations. No wonder they have the highest rate of gun deaths. We have immigration laws, but routinely ignore them. We have tax laws, and yet allow people who have broken these laws to skate free...even those in this administration. We don't need new laws. We need the laws passed to be enforced.

3) As I understand it, Texas law enforcement and government is already investigating these claims.

I tried reading the Gosnell grand jury report and couldn't continue because I was overcome with tears, grief and anger. Again this morning, my eyes filled with tears reading these brutal and heinous acts committed on these innocent babies.

The Labor dept audited a Romney campaign finance person's ranch and fined him $8,500 for too many flies in the ranch house and too much grease on the stove. Yet we have many, possibly hundreds or thousands of these murder houses operating with no oversight, no regulations, no audits.

But ban the guns!!!! Force law-abiding citizens to give up their constitutional rights. Just let the baby killers remain free to make their blood money.

My heart is grieved right now. I don't pray for God's mercy on these killers; I pray for God's judgment to rain like fire on each and every baby killer and those who support and enable them.

[ApostolicKitty]

Unfortunately, Hoovie is right. This is the norm for many clinics. There are many reports of clinics where these things happen. Three sites I follow that give a lot of news about the ongoing of these houses of horror are: http://www.lifesitenews.com/, liveaction.org, and http://www.lifenews.com/. I also follow Abby Johnson and she shares a lot of things on facebook. They are all Catholic, but they are all pro-life and care about protecting babies.

I sure wish there were an apostolic network that gave this kind of attention to this area.

All I am saying is that IF this is happening in TEXAS of all places, then SMH!


There has been, over the last few weeks, a rash of crazy things making national headlines happening in Texas.

This is the latest.

I don't pray for God's Judgment on them because I don't want His Judgment on me-- I am a murderer, thief, liar, adulterer, fornicator, self-abuser, homosexual, tax cheater, hypocritical, inconsistent, stinky, rotten, man!

If I have been guilty of one of these sins, I may as well have been guilty of all of them.

I am very glad for God's Grace tonight! How about you?


Let's pray that the atrocities of Philly and of Houston are not widespread.

[Hoovie]

And... how could those people standing by watching these things not be considered part of the evil also? Why did their conscience not stand up against the evil happening in front of their eyes? Aren't they guilty by association too?

Those witnessing these murders would be justified in using lethal force to stop the perpetrator.

[Hoovie]

They are widespread Jermyn. No question there. Thousands are "snipped" daily - some are snipped a couple inches inside the womb and others a couple inches outside...

[MissBrattified]

Gah. Turns my stomach. House of horrors is apt, because it is horrifying.

[Jermyn Davidson]

Those witnessing these murders would be justified in using lethal force to stop the perpetrator.

Would they?

What if I pre-determined to go to an abortion clinic to stop an abortion from happening and found myself eliminating the abortionist-- would that not be premeditated murder?

Or maybe it would be premeditated life defending.

Yesterday's terrorist is history's freedom fighter-- if his friends write the history books.


NO I AM NOT ADVOCATING VIOLENCE AGAINST ABORTIONISTS!
NO I AM NOT ADVOCATING TERRORISM IN ANY WAY, FORM, OR FASHION!
I AM A PEACEMAKER.

[Hoovie]

That's the irony or absurdity of the question. If they used force to stop the killing of a baby in the womb they would be charged. But 30 seconds after the head emerges they have the same rights as any other child and you are justified in using force to protect them.

Perhaps every abortion clinic needs to be staffed with armed security so they can stop babies that are born alive from being euthanized.

[MarieA27]

Hmm..Maybe I'm wrong, but I see a lot of care for the unborn babies, but not a lot of attention spared for the mothers who had the abortions, nor for the babies that grow to live with some type of medical condition due to surviving an abortion.

To the people that are so outraged by this act, and so against abortions, are you willing to and are you helping out those mothers who would consent to commit such an act, turn their life towards God, so they won't do these acts anymore, as well as helping them out with what ever they need so they can support the child?

And if the mother won't hear you, and still consent for an abortion, what are you doing to support the child that survives the abortion? Are you adopting them? Are you going out of your way to provide for them? Are you making sure that their cares and needs are met? Food, nurture, shelter, and whatever else they need?

I guess I'm just trying to figure out what people are willing and are going to do, IF abortions were outlawed, or made harder to get through legal means.

I'm not advocating making abortion illegal or harder to get...although I wish it were. I'm simply saying they need to visit these murder clinics and make sure there aren't anymore of these psycopaths, and if there are, prosecute them.

Do you hear yourself? What I hear you saying is that it is better to KILL people than have mothers and babies in poverty or in ill health. Personally, I don't do much to help these people out. But I don't think killing the unborn is the answer.

[MarieA27]

Do you hear yourself? What I hear you saying is that it is better to KILL people than have mothers and babies in poverty or in ill health.

Hmm...Jumping to conclusions...

Personally, I don't do much to help these people out.

And therein lies the problem.

But I don't think killing the unborn is the answer.


I'm just saying that if you want to be all outraged, and angry, and want the baby killers to suffer and to die all of these hideous deaths etc., (all of that seems pretty harsh, especially the latter imo, especially if these people end up seeing their error, repent and turn around) you need to step up to the plate and do more, so that your words would have merit. So you won't look like just another christian crying foul, and trying to get people to adhere to your views, without truly offering them a helping hand when they do.

I guess it's just jarring to me. I rarely ever hear about people lamenting, wishing for these abortionist, and people who go for abortions to turn their life around. That they see the error of their ways, and turn to God. It's almost always wishing that these people would die, or suffer some horrible punishment, or to burn in hell.

It's just sad to see people weeping, and down in their hearts for the unborn children who are all going to go to heaven, and then wishing for all the others to rot, and don't even care or seem to want them to live a life for God and to go to heaven.

I'm just saying that if you're showing all of that remorse for the unborn baby's life, that you should show the same for the others soul, praying that they won't die in that sinful, unrepentant condition, that God would have mercy on them, so they would be able to be saved.

I also feel bad for other types of victims and discuss that. But I don't get on a bandwagon and take a bus to help them out either. I spent 19 years building churches and helping other people out. I'm retired from that now.

I think you are judging the people who are outraged that people are being killed. I don't do too much anymore to help the mothers etc, but I would guess a lot of people do. So, how much does someone have to do to get your approval for talking against abortion? Do they have to give $500.00 a year or $5000.00? Your argument seems silly to me.

[Hoovie]

Marie you are very sick. Yes I do help mothers and babies... And yes I hope perps get Jesus before they face the capital punishment that their murder incurs on themselves. But there is rightfully an indignent outrage in society against mass murderers. It is the anomaly when you find someone advocating FOR a Hitler - and we understand this, even while knowing Christ died for Hitler too.

[Hoovie]

I actually AM an advocate for giving the unborn personhood rights (which we already have in many states) without distinction before and after birth. We can start by doing this for unborn children 18 weeks and older, then go from there.

Absolutely. I would do everything I could to keep her from killing her child and would do everything I could to help her or that child that lives. The only problem is that my resources are extremely limited.

I rarely ever hear about people lamenting, wishing for these abortionist, and people who go for abortions to turn their life around. That they see the error of their ways, and turn to God. It's almost always wishing that these people would die, or suffer some horrible punishment, or to burn in hell.

I pray for more people to leave the abortion industry and find the Lord, including the doctors who perform the abortions. Quite frankly, I am even glad that Gosnell did not get the death penalty. Though he deserves it, I still have hope for his soul. I admit it's not much hope... But then I have to wonder how long Paul killed Christians before God knocked him off his high horse...

However, the biggest concern is always going to be for those innocent little babies who get a horrific death penalty simply for being conceived. Every single form of abortion would be considered cruel and unusual punishment if it were used on death row inmates, yet it is used on our most innocent.

[ApostolicKitty]

I don't know if y'all have seen this video or not, but be warned that it is three women giving testimony about their experiences while working at a clinic. I believe it is the one in Texas that this thread is about.

[MissBrattified]

Marie, I appreciate your points which I'm sure originate in a compassionate heart. However, your logic is flawed. Using your line of thinking means that only people who participate in the foster home program can argue against abusing children.

Let me change your quote just a little to that topic:

To the people that are so outraged by this act, and so against parents abusing their children, are you willing to and are you helping out those parents who would consent to commit such an act, turn their life towards God, so they won't do these acts anymore, as well as helping them out with what ever they need so they can be kind to their children?

And if the parents won't hear you, and still abuse their children, and those children end up in foster care, what are you doing to support the child that survives the abuse? Are you adopting them? Are you going out of your way to provide for them? Are you making sure that their cares and needs are met? Food, nurture, shelter, and whatever else they need?

I realize that all of the issues that you bring up are issues that need to be addressed in looking at the WHOLE social problem, but they don't relate to whether a person can legitimately speak out against abortion--or child abuse. I don't have to be an adoptive or foster parent to speak out against parents abusing their children OR against women murdering their babies.

[MarieA27]

Marie you are very sick. Yes I do help mothers and babies... And yes I hope perps get Jesus before they face the capital punishment that their murder incurs on themselves. But there is rightfully an indignent outrage in society against mass murderers. It is the anomaly when you find someone advocating FOR a Hitler - and we understand this, even while knowing Christ died for Hitler too.

How am I sick? No where in my posts did I say anything about being glad that the babies died. And no where am I advocating for abortion. I just for once, would like to hear someone's outrage about these murderers salvation, preaching and teaching them about God so they can get out of this, and turn their life around, that even if/when they die, or get just punishment for their actions, that they can be saved.

But it's like some of you people don't even want that. Saying that you hope that they rot in an extra hot place in hell, that they get everything to them that they did to the babies and then some . Probably wouldn't even be able to forgive Paul...

Look, I understand being outraged at their actions, because it was and is indeed evil, but that hatred for their actions should never trump their soul salvation, to the point that you’re wishing that they never ever get saved.

I guess since after coming to the knowledge of the truth about hell, I don't wish it on anybody, not even my worse enemy. That's why I labor continually for the salvation of souls, since that is the most important thing.

[MarieA27]

I see where you're coming from, I guess I'm looking more at the end result of these actions: their soul. With all of these grotesque actions that happened to these innocent babies, I get solace in the knowledge that they're going to go to heaven. And no, I'm not advocating for more abortions, or for people to kill more babies. But my concern is more so on the unwanted babies that are living now, cause it seems that a lot them live unpleasant (to put it mildly) end up growing up not knowing God.

[n david]

No reports from the MSM on this still. They're likely relieved the Obama administration has so many scandals going on. Now they can pass on this story and just blame an incredibly busy news cycle on the reason for burying it.

LifeNews posted an update a few days ago. The similarities between Gosnell and Karpen are striking.

SOURCE LINK (http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/20/abortion-doc-who-twists-off-babies-heads-killed-woman-in-failed-abortion/)

Karpen was sued in court over a woman who died as a result of his "procedure," and was also sued for injuries a 16-year old girl sustained from his "procedure."

The woman who have come forward to accuse Karpen, have photos of murdered babies they took with cell phones. Photos which prove these babies were killed outside the womb.

But enough about this...what Obama scandal will surface today? Or, hey, I heard Amanda Bynes was arrested. That sounds like news we should cover.

Oh I'll admit it, God's not done with me yet so I still am far form perfect in my attitudes.

I have a 4 1/2 month old baby boy. We had two miscarriages before we were blessed with him. The idea of someone,a doctor or otherwise, killing a baby when I see how precious and beautiful this little life is, makes me go right past anger and into some dark recesses.

If I had the chance to tell them about Jesus and lead them to repent..I would. However, since I likely never will with these folks...yeah I kinda hope they do face levels of pain inhell that the human mind cannot comprehend. If you take scissors to a newborns spine, or twist ans snap a newborns neck, you better believe I hope you rot in hell. Personally if it werent illegal I would be happy to usher you to the gates myself.

As to this whole, "what are you doing to help? Are you willing to adopt?" nonsense...do you have any clue how hard and expensive it is to try to adopt a baby in this country? I know a few families who would LOVE to adopt on e of these babies so the deadbeat momma wouldn't have it murdered, but the system will not allwo them to or has made it so expensive they ca't afford to.

Four Maryland murder clinics shut down, licenses suspended

Less than two months after proudly announcing they were reopening their doors after their licenses were temporarily suspended for violating what they called "minor" state regulations, four abortion clinics owned by Associates in OB/GYN Care have once again been shut down by the state.

But just today the state released documents revealing that the clinics had once again lost their licenses after inspectors discovered that all four clinics routinely administered the drug Misoprostol to cause abortions in women who were past 11 weeks gestation, "even if the patient has not be evaluated by a physician, and even if no physician is available on site."

LifeSiteNews SOURCE LINK (http://www.lifesitenews.com/news/four-maryland-abortion-clinic-licenses-suspended-woman-died-at-one-clinic)

And

12 of 16 Maryland murder clinics failed inspections, including all 3 Planned Parenthood clinics and the murderer Leroy Carhart's clinic.

Among the 12 abortion clinics caught violating state regulations were all three of the state's Planned Parenthood abortion facilities, as well as that of notorious late-term abortionist Leroy Carhart. While the violations found at the Planned Parenthood facilities were relatively minor, at one facility one staff member was not certified in basic life support or trained in emergency transfer of patients to hospital or the delivery of sedation medications via IV.

Carhart, whose abortion business was hounded of out Nebraska in 2010 after the state passed legislation banning late-term abortions, was responsible for performing the abortion that led to the death of 29-year-old kindergarten teacher Jennifer Morbelli earlier this year. While Carhart was cleared on Friday by the Department of Health of wrongdoing in Morbelli’s death, the department was less impressed by what it found when it inspected Carhart’s clinic.

Investigators discovered some eight pages of violations, including a nurse whose RN license had expired, nurses who weren’t properly trained in administering sedation drugs through IV, and failure to train staff in the emergency transfer of patients to the hospital.

In addition, investigators found that patient records did not included a discharge diagnosis, as required, and staff were improperly cleaning surgical instruments.

Headline: 20 Texas Lawmakers Demand Probe of Douglas Karpen, Killed Babies Born Alive

Twenty Texas legislators have signed on to a letter demanding an investigation of Douglas Karpen, a Houston abortion practitioner who is being considered the second Kermit Gosnell for killing babies born alive after abortion.

[State Representative Phil] King informed Life Dynamics that his office then mailed that DVD to Lt. Richard Kleczynski with the Homicide Division of the Houston Police Department. He also sent a letter to Ms. Mari Robinson, executive director of the Texas Medical Board, and David L. Lakey MD., Commissioner of the Texas Department of State Health Services, requesting a full investigation. These letters were co-signed by 20 Texas lawmakers (send end of story for list).

“We strongly support a full investigation into the allegations of Dr. Karpen. As a state, we must ensure that the health and safety of women and children are being protected by laws and regulations in place,” King wrote to the agencies.

This is taking a while to develop, but hopefully this murderer is arrested and put on trial for his actions.
