A US Congressional body tasked with investigating alleged malpractice among abortion providers has released a damning 500-page report on its findings, which include prosecution calls. The document published by the Select Investigative Panel on Infant Lives reveals it has made 15 criminal referrals, among them for alleged murder by abortion staff of infants born alive during late-term abortions and one against a company involved in foetal tissue transfers for allegedly destroying documents sought by investigators seeking evidence of the selling of such tissue for profit. In addition to criminal cases, the panel’s report makes a series of recommendations for the protection of women and infants, the “stewardship of taxpayer funds” and conducting ethical scientific research. “Human foetal tissue research is an outdated and unproductive area of research that does not make a strong impact on the field,” the report concluded.
