Ex-Abortion Doctor Tells The SHOCKING Truth About Abortion

  • 0:00 - 0:02
    This investigation of Planned Parenthood,
  • 0:02 - 0:05
    who's based on false premises,
    one after another after another.
  • 0:05 - 0:08
    Time to stop wasting time,
    get on with meaningful work.
  • 0:08 - 0:11
    And stop picking on women and trying
    to take their choice away.
  • 0:11 - 0:13
    I yield back the balance of my time.
  • 0:13 - 0:15
    The time of the gentleman has expired.
  • 0:15 - 0:18
    We welcome our distinguished
    witnesses today.
  • 0:18 - 0:19
    Do you and each of you swear
  • 0:19 - 0:22
    that the testimony that you are about
    to give shall be the truth,
  • 0:22 - 0:25
    the whole truth, and nothing
    but the truth, so help you God?
  • 0:25 - 0:28
    And I'll now begin by introducing
    today's witnesses.
  • 0:28 - 0:29
    The first witness is Dr.
  • 0:29 - 0:31
    Anthony Levatino.
    Dr.
  • 0:31 - 0:35
    Levitino is a board certified
    obstetrician gynecologist.
  • 0:35 - 0:37
    Over the course of his career, Dr.
  • 0:37 - 0:40
    Levitino has practiced obstetrics
  • 0:40 - 0:43
    and gynecology in both private
    and University settings,
  • 0:43 - 0:49
    including as an associate professor
    of OB GYN at the Albany Medical College.
  • 0:49 - 0:51
    And Dr.
    Levitino will begin with.
  • 0:51 - 0:52
    You welcome.
  • 0:52 - 0:55
    Thank you, chairman
    and members of the committee.
  • 0:55 - 0:58
    I only have five minutes,
    so I'm going to get right to it.
  • 0:58 - 1:00
    Second Trimester D any abortions perform
  • 1:00 - 1:04
    between roughly 14 and 24
    weeks of gestation.
  • 1:04 - 1:06
    Your patient today is 17 years old.
  • 1:06 - 1:08
    She's 22 weeks pregnant.
  • 1:08 - 1:12
    Her baby is the length of your
    hand plus a couple of inches.
  • 1:12 - 1:15
    And she's been feeling her baby
    kicked for the last several weeks.
  • 1:15 - 1:18
    But she's asleep on an
    operating room table.
  • 1:18 - 1:22
    You walk into that operating room scrubbed
    and gown, and after removing laminaria,
  • 1:22 - 1:25
    you introduce a suction
    catheter into the uterus.
  • 1:25 - 1:28
    This is a 14 French suction catheter.
  • 1:28 - 1:30
    If she were twelve weeks pregnant or less.
  • 1:30 - 1:32
    Basically, the width
    of your hand is smaller.
  • 1:32 - 1:34
    You could basically do
    the entire procedure with this.
  • 1:34 - 1:38
    But babies this big don't fit
    through catheters this size.
  • 1:39 - 1:40
    After suctioning the amniotic fluid out
  • 1:41 - 1:44
    from around the baby, you introduce
    an instrument called the sofa clamp.
  • 1:44 - 1:46
    It's about 13 inches long.
  • 1:46 - 1:47
    It's made of stainless steel.
  • 1:47 - 1:49
    The business end of this clamp is about
  • 1:49 - 1:51
    two and a half inches long
    and a half inch wide.
  • 1:51 - 1:53
    There are rows of sharp teeth.
  • 1:53 - 1:54
    This is a grasping instrument.
  • 1:54 - 1:57
    When it gets a hold of something,
    it does not let go.
  • 1:57 - 1:59
    A DNA procedure is a blind abortion.
  • 1:59 - 2:01
    So picture yourself introducing this
  • 2:01 - 2:04
    and grabbing anything you
    can blindly and pull.
  • 2:04 - 2:05
    And I do mean hard.
  • 2:05 - 2:07
    And I'll pop the leg about that big
  • 2:07 - 2:12
    which you put down on the table next
    to you, reaching again, pull again.
  • 2:12 - 2:14
    Pull out an arm about the same length
  • 2:14 - 2:16
    which you put down
    on the table next to you.
  • 2:16 - 2:18
    And use this instrument again and again
  • 2:18 - 2:22
    to tear out the spine,
    the intestines, the heart and lungs.
  • 2:22 - 2:26
    Head in the baby that size is
    about the size of a large plum.
  • 2:26 - 2:29
    Can't see it, but you pretty good idea.
    You've got it.
  • 2:29 - 2:31
    If you've got your instrument around
    something and your fingers are spread
  • 2:31 - 2:34
    about as far as they go,
    you know you did it right.
  • 2:34 - 2:37
    If you crush down on the instrument,
    white material runs out of the cervix.
  • 2:37 - 2:41
    That was the baby's brains and you
    can pull out skull pieces.
  • 2:41 - 2:43
    You have a day like I had a lot of times.
  • 2:43 - 2:46
    Sometimes a little face comes
    back and stares back at you.
  • 2:46 - 2:47
    Congratulations.
  • 2:47 - 2:51
    You just successfully performed
    a second trimester denied abortion.
  • 2:51 - 2:55
    You just affirmed her right to choose.
    One more question,
  • 2:55 - 3:00
    doctor levitino. Why did you end
    your practice of doing abortions?
  • 3:00 - 3:04
    I did over 1200 abortions over a four
    year period in private practice.
  • 3:04 - 3:07
    Now counting the ones that I
    did during my training.
  • 3:08 - 3:12
    I met my wife during my first year
    of training at Albany medical center.
  • 3:12 - 3:16
    We got married about a year later and
    found that we had an infertility problem.
  • 3:16 - 3:20
    After years of failed infertility
    treatment and several years trying
  • 3:20 - 3:23
    to adopt a child,
    we were blessed with adopting a little
  • 3:23 - 3:27
    girl that we named Heather
    in August of 1978.
  • 3:27 - 3:29
    As sometimes happens in those situations,
  • 3:29 - 3:35
    My wife got pregnant the very next month
    and we had two children ten months apart,
  • 3:35 - 3:39
    two months short of my daughter Heather's
    6th birthday, she was killed in an auto
  • 3:39 - 3:42
    accident and literally died in her
    arms in the back of an ambulance.
  • 3:42 - 3:46
    Anyone who has children might think they
    have some idea of what that feels like,
  • 3:47 - 3:51
    but unless you've been through it
    yourself, you have no idea whatsoever.
  • 3:52 - 3:57
    I know people find it hard to believe,
    but what do you do after disaster?
  • 3:57 - 4:00
    You bury your child and then
    you go back to your life.
  • 4:00 - 4:03
    And I don't remember exactly how long it
  • 4:03 - 4:08
    was after my daughter died that I showed
    up at Albany medical center or number nine
  • 4:08 - 4:10
    to perform my 1st 2nd
    trimester DNA abortion.
  • 4:10 - 4:12
    I wasn't thinking of it
    as anything special.
  • 4:12 - 4:14
    This was routine to me,
  • 4:14 - 4:20
    but I reached in, literally pulled
    out an arm or leg and got sick.
  • 4:20 - 4:24
    Earlier on, I described stacking up
    body parts on the side of the table.
  • 4:24 - 4:29
    It's not to gross people
    out using a simple term.
  • 4:29 - 4:31
    When you do an abortion,
    you need to keep inventory.
  • 4:31 - 4:35
    You have to make sure you get two
    arms and two legs and all the pieces.
  • 4:35 - 4:39
    If you don't, Your patient's going
    to come back infected, bleeding, or dead.
  • 4:39 - 4:42
    So I soldiered on and
    finished that abortion.
  • 4:42 - 4:45
    And I know it sounds like I said hard
    for people to believe,
  • 4:45 - 4:49
    but I'm telling you,
    straight up my experience
  • 4:49 - 4:53
    after over 1200 abortions,
    first and second trimester up to 24 weeks
  • 4:53 - 4:56
    and all the rest of it,
    and being very dedicated to it.
  • 4:56 - 5:00
    For the first time in my life,
    I really looked I really looked
  • 5:00 - 5:04
    at that pile of body parts on the side
    of the table and I didn't see her
  • 5:04 - 5:07
    wonderful right to choose and I
    didn't see all the money I just made.
  • 5:07 - 5:10
    All I could see was
    somebody's son or daughter.
  • 5:10 - 5:13
    And I stopped doing late term abortions
  • 5:13 - 5:18
    after that and several months later,
    stopped doing all abortions.
  • 5:18 - 5:18
    Thank you.
