17 YEAR PLANNED PARENTHOOD EMPLOYEE GIVES THE INSIDE STORY - WEBCAM ABORTIONS

17 YEAR PLANNED PARENTHOOD EMPLOYEE GIVES THE INSIDE STORY - WEBCAM ABORTIONS  

No one in the pro-life world has been inside Planned Parenthood longer than Sue Thayer.  Having been a Center Manager for nearly 18 years, Sue believed she was helping women. But that all changed when she was informed she would soon be trained to do webcam abortions at her small rural Iowa center.  Stunned, her concerns fell on deaf ears.  Sue began to see the abortion giant in a new light and ultimately shared her insider’s knowledge.  Sue’s vast experience coupled with her changed heart and bold faith has led to a whistle-blower lawsuit, currently in litigation.

Sue led Storm Lake’s first ever 40 Days For Life campaign at the very clinic she supervised for so many years.  Shortly after completing the prayer vigil, Planned Parenthood closed its doors forever.

Sue shares her miraculous conversion with honesty, transparency and humor.   Having been a foster and adoptive parent for 27 years, she has an amazing love for children.

center 0:10 manager of its storm like Mars Iowa clinics I spent 17 years learning from 0:15 the inside out just how Planned Parenthood works I concluded that no 0:19 business certainly no health care business should be you a woman's body as 0:24 a profit center but that is what Planned Parenthood is all about 0:28 they're more concerned with profit then about the health of women when I first 0:32 began working for Planned Parenthood I was convinced that I was serving my 0:35 community and the health needs of women as a parent of five children including 0:40 three adopted kids and a foster mom to a hundred and thirty kids over the past 28 0:45 years I didn't fit well into Planned Parenthood's corporate culture though 0:51 during my initial interview i expressed concerns about abortion I was hired and 0:55 promoted by Planned Parenthood and I believe that I could help reduce 0:59 abortion and serve women over time I learned that I was wrong to trust 1:04 Planned Parenthood I'm here today because all plant all people need to 1:07 know the truth about Planned Parenthood in 2002 the remains of a newborn our 1:13 full Terms child were discovered in trash in my small Iowa town after 1:18 determining that the child had been born alive the sheriff investigating the 1:22 murder of this child came to my clinic to seek medical records of potential 1:26 suspects I assume that planned parenthood would want to cooperate with 1:30 this criminal investigation instead Planned Parenthood turned the murder 1:34 into a fundraising opportunity and falsely claimed that all women's health 1:38 records would be compromised and that a woman's right to abortion was under 1:42 attack as it often seems to do Planned Parenthood raised thousands of dollars 1:47 from this sordid event like most of Iowa's Planned Parenthood clinics birth 1:52 control pills were dispensed to patients without the patients ever having been 1:56 seen by a medical professional once a week a nurse practitioner would come to 2:00 the Planned Parenthood clinics to sign off on birth control prescriptions that 2:04 have been dispensed the prior week in 2007 I learn more about the truth of 2:09 Planned Parenthood when it implemented webcam abortion 2:13 here so this was to work a woman with a positive pregnancy test would be offered 2:18 a webcam abortion on the spot so she couldn't change her mind 2:22 next in on medical clinic assistant with minimal training would perform a 2:26 transvaginal ultrasound and scan the image to a doctor in another location 2:31 the doctor would briefly talked to the woman by a Skype television connection 2:36 then the doctor could push a button on her computer that opened a drawer and 2:41 which were the abortion pills 2:43 the woman was told to take one set of pills at the clinic and then to complete 2:46 her abortion take the second set of pills at home 2:50 48 hours later I'm parented instructed its clinic workers to tell women who 2:55 experienced complications at home to report to their local er but women were 3:00 told to say they were experiencing a miscarriage not that they had undergone 3:03 a chemical abortion when period cut its costs to the bone by performing webcam 3:09 abortions with virtually no overhead no on-site doctors no real medical staff 3:14 very little equipment and no expense for travel to a remote clinic and yet it 3:20 charged women the same fee for a chemical abortion as it did for a 3:24 surgical abortion webcam abortion is obviously a big money maker for Planned 3:28 Parenthood I expressed my concerns to Planned Parenthood management that 3:34 webcam abortions were unsafe and possibly illegal today planned 3:38 parenthood's webcam abortion scheme is so financially successful it's been 3:42 implemented in both Iowa and Minnesota they touted it as the first in the 3:47 nation and had plans to expand webcam abortion to every state after I left 3:53 Planned Parenthood I realized that it had been fraudulently billing I will 3:56 medicaid's program unit filed false Medicaid claims totaling about 28 4:01 million dollars first through its email program it dispensed without a 4:06 perscription medically unnecessary oral contraceptive pills to Medicaid patients 4:11 back and get billed Medicaid for him 4:15 abortion-related services in violation of federal law 4:18 ordered it coerced donations from patients in violation of Medicaid 4:23 regulations each of these 4:26 was implemented to benefit Planned Parenthood's bottom-line benefited 4:31 women's health plan period as organized as a tax-exempt nonprofit nevertheless 4:37 these are some of the reasons that it has reported seven hundred and 4:41 sixty-five million dollars in excess revenue over the last 10 years when I 4:46 first began working at Planned Parenthood I trusted them and thought 4:49 its leaders knew what was right but I learned that it could not be trusted in 4:53 fact it does not deserve to be trusted by any american woman or man planned 4:58 parenthood is more concerned about its bottom line than it is about the health 5:01 and safety of women 5:03 thank you
