Abortionists kill twin with down syndrome by piercing his heart

Pro-Life author William Brennan describes the following abortion:

“In June 1981 it was disclosed that the doctors at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York City destroyed an unwanted unborn twin inflicted with down syndrome by piercing his heart and draining out almost half his blood. The successful implementation of this destructive procedure required the application of ultrasound “to hit a moving target [the baby’s heart] less than an inch across” with a needle.”

The doctors who did this described the operation as

“a very gratifying experience.”
