New undercover video shows Dr. Mary Gatter, the Planned Parenthood senior executive who infamously laughed “I want a Lamborghini” about payments for aborted fetal parts, again haggling over per-specimen pricing for livers, lungs, and brains, even while insisting the purchaser must do all the work to harvest.
The video is the second of a never-before-seen batch of undercover footage being released by The Center for Medical Progress.
At a Planned Parenthood conference evening reception, CMP investigators posing as buyers from a biotech company are introduced to Dr. Gatter for the first time by Dr. Deborah Nucatola, Planned Parenthood Federation of America’s Senior Director of Medical Services.
“I wanted you to meet Mary Gatter,” says Dr. Nucatola, before Dr. Gatter steps forward.
Gatter was for many years the Medical Director of Planned Parenthood Los Angeles, before moving to the same position at the Pasadena affiliate, and then being elected President of Planned Parenthood Federation of America’s Medical Directors’ Council. As Medical Director at PPLA, Gatter oversaw the affiliate’s partnership with Novogenix Laboratories, LLC, a local for-profit fetal organ and tissue harvesting company.
“I did it in LA, I’m committed to it, I think it’s a great idea,” says Hatter to the purported body parts buyers. Discussing the number of abortions at her Pasadena clinic, Gatter asks, “What kind of volume do you need and what gestational ages?”
During the conversation, Gatter advises, “You know, you have to pay a little money to use the space.” After asking for a ballpark figure, the buyer observes, “Most people now seem to be doing per specimen.”
“Per specimen. Like $75 a specimen?” Gatter replies. After the buyer asks for clarification, Gatter repeats, “$75 a specimen, or $50 a specimen?” The buyer replies, “What we’ve been quoting is $50 per specimen. I think some people are doing more, some slightly less.”
Gatter then comments, “Yeah, $50’s on the low end, $50 [per specimen] was like 12 years ago.”
The buyer then explains, “What we like about per-specimen is that way we’re not paying for [fetal] material that we can’t use, you know?” Gatter nods, saying, “Yeah yeah, yeah.”
Federal law permits reimbursement for specified costs in a fetal organ or tissue donation, but prohibits the purchase and sale of the organs and tissues themselves (42 U.S.C. 289g-2).
The buyer continues, “If we can get a liver, a lung, and you know, a brain–” before Gatter interjects, “But you would show up to do this? You would send somebody,” to which the buyer answers affirmatively. Gatter concludes the conversation saying, “Yeah I’d be willing, give me a call.”
According to contracts and invoices, the real-life fetal organ and tissue wholesaler companies Novogenix, StemExpress, and Advanced Bioscience Resources all made monthly payments to Planned Parenthood based on the number of resalable fetal specimens the wholesalers’ workers could harvest inside the abortion clinics. Planned Parenthood told Congressional investigators it kept no contemporaneous records of actual costs for reimbursement under the law.
The Novogenix contract promises Planned Parenthood Los Angeles $45 “per donated specimen.” Planned Parenthood Los Angeles does over 15,000 abortions every year, but has never publicly admitted how much money they received total under their contract with Novogenix. In December 2016, the Senate Judiciary Committee and the House Select Investigative Panel both referred Planned Parenthood Los Angeles and Novogenix to the FBI and U.S. Department of Justice for further investigation and criminal prosecution.
So why does Bishop Robert Barron insist that there is a reasonable hope that most are saved? Unrepentant baby killers like this one better hope he’s right (he is not).
Ghoulish.
Exact same word came to my mind. Ghoulish! Like watching a horror film. Truly hell on earth.
Reason never prevails.
Profit and prejudice prevail.
Remember, this is what the Democrat Party stands for. It’s not possible to be a knowledgeable and faithful Catholic while supporting the Democrat Party.
Our Forefathers would be sickened to see what we’ve allowed the great nation they created for us slink into the abyss of murdering our own children! The real problem? In 1973 a maverick, incoherent Supreme Court contrived a right to choose to kill human life! In the process the court sentrenced millions of innocent American citizens in utero to a violent death! Seven black-robbed men destroyed the goodness and greatness of America.by trashing the limits of our Constitution and launched us into a second Civil War where Americans are killing Americans! May God forgive us, We’ve allowed ithe slaughter to continue for 44 years, and counting! A great nation has been shamed by progressive activists who appointed themselves a monarchy more…

This video is an example of how unhinged, leftists steeped in perfidious darkness hate the truth and attack those who speak it.
The Vice Principal and students taunting and bullying these teens will be confounded at their particular judgment and the injustice and foolishness of their actions will be a source of shame at the general judgment, unless they repent and amend their lives.

This is the world in which we live. This is the society in which we live. There are so many obstacles set up to oppose the clear articulation of truth and prevent the proper formation of consciences and the conversion of sinners.
Every single word these young people say is 100% true and correct. The truth absolutely infuriates those who actively reject it.

You will understand exactly why this spectacularly inappropriate public school administrator becomes so unhinged that he bullied, intimidated, shouted at, used profanity, violated appropriate boundaries by revealing personal information about his private life, and threatened these teens, and loudly sang over their voices, and blocked their signs.
Truth is when the idea in our minds conforms to the reality outside of our minds.

There are only two alternatives in the intellectual life: either one conforms desire to the truth or one conforms truth to desire.
Faithful Catholics still experience this same type of bullying and silencing from enemies within the Church. The video of the ghoulish Planned Parenthood mass murderer of innocent children and the video of the “I’m as gay as the day is long” vice principal, reflect the same decline of morality, within the Church…especially when safeguarding and upholding the fullness of the truth The enemies of God will try to conform truth to desire. Pray the rosary daily! In the End My Immaculate Heart Will Triumph!
