Common Abortion Methods
Suction Aspiration
The abortionist inserts a hollow plastic tube into the dilated cervix. "This tube is attached to a suction machine. The suction machine is turned on. The uterus is emptied by suction." $ ^{1} $ The suction tears the baby's body as he/she is being pulled through the hose.
Used after 12 weeks. Once the cervix is dilated considerably further than in first trimester abortions, the abortionist inserts a narrow forceps that resembles a pliers. A pliers-like instrument is needed because the baby's bones are calcified, as is the skull. The abortionist inserts the instrument into the uterus, seizes a leg or other part of the body and, with a twisting motion, tears it from the baby's body. The spine must be snapped and the skull crushed in order to remove them from the womb. Body parts are then reassembled and counted to make certain that the entire baby has been removed and that no parts remain in the womb.
Dilatation and Evacuation (D&E)
Partial-Birth Abortion (D&X)
After three days of preparations, the abortionist places an ultrasound transducer on the mother's abdomen and locates the child's legs and feet. The abortionist then uses a large forceps to grasp one of the baby's legs. He pulls firmly, forcing the child into a feet-down (breech) position. He continues pulling until the baby's leg is drawn into the birth canal.
Next, using his hands instead of forceps, the abortionist delivers the baby's body in a manner similar to a breech birth. First, the child's other leg is delivered, followed by the torso, shoulders, and arms. The baby's head remains inside the vaginal birth canal.
The abortionist then performs the last step. Using surgical scissors in a closed position, he pierces the child's head at the base of the skull. He forces the scissors open to enlarge the skull opening. The abortionist then inserts a suction catheter into the brain and vacuums out the child's brain tissue with a machine 28 times more powerful than a household vacuum.

Abortion: It Just Might Kill You
ngela Nieto Sanchez died at a Santa Ana, CA abortion mill in 1993 from a drug injection given by Alicia Ruiz Hanna who was neither a doctor nor
Hanna has since
has since been convicted of murder.
Two of Sanchez's children were in the waiting room while their mother was having the abortion. After Sanchez died, Hanna tried to talk the 12-year old daughter into driving the mother's car away. She refused. The children continued to wait. The clinic staff took the children out for lunch. When they returned, the mother's car was gone and the children were told that the mother had left the abortion mill. Hours later, the staff asked the children to call a relative to take them home, which they did.
When Sanchez's children returned home and their mother was not there they asked the relative to take them back to the abortion mill. Just as they arrived they saw Hanna trying to stuff their mother's body into Hanna's car. They seized the body and hurried to a hospital where they were informed that their mother had been dead since early that morning.
At the trial, prosecutors showed that Sanchez could have been saved because a fire station with emergency workers was less than one mile away. A worker at the abortion mill said that Hanna had planned to dump the body in the Tijuana River. Hanna admitted that she did not dial 911 because she feared being arrested for the botched abortion - an admission "Hanna the trial judge called "callous admitted that and self-serving." she did not To find out dial 911 about other because she abortion complications and feared being deaths read Lime arrested for 5, available from the botched Life Dynamics at abortion." 1-800-401-6494
