5 Fetuses Discovered in Anti-Abortion Activist’s DC Home
DC police discovered five fetuses in the DC home of an anti-abortion activist who was indicted for being part of a blockade at an abortion clinic.
According to NBC News:
The fetuses were found after a tip was given “regarding potential bio-hazard material” at the home where Lauren Handy was reported to be residing, Washington police said. An investigation is underway, and the fetuses have been given to the medical examiner’s office.
Handy said outside the home Wednesday that she expected the raid to happen “sooner or later,” WUSA-TV reported. Handy, who declined to speak on camera, said “people would freak out when they heard” what was in the evidence bags being taken by police, the station reported.
Handy, 28, is one of nine anti-abortion rights activists who were charged with conspiracy against rights and violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act, known as the FACE Act, the Justice Department announced Wednesday.
Handy and others are alleged to have forced their way into the clinic and blockaded the doors.
The indictment also alleges that the defendants violated the FACE Act by using a physical obstruction to injure, intimidate and interfere with the clinic’s employees and a patient “because they were providing or obtaining reproductive health services.”
