We now see the heart beating, here in the child’s chest; the heart is beating at a rate of approximately one hundred and forty a minute,—and we can see the child moving, rather serenely, in the uterus. One can see it shifting position from time to time—it is still orientated in this manner—and the mouth is receiving the thumb of the child. The child, again, is moving quietly in its sanctuary. Now, this shadow, which we are seeing down at the bottom of the screen, is the suction tip—we have colored the suction tip deliberately in order for you to discern it more clearly—but the abortionist has now dilated the cervix and is now inserting this suction tip, which you can see moving back and forth across the screen.
You will note that as the suction tip, which is now over here, moves toward the child, the child will rear away from it, and undergo much more violent, much more agitated movements; the child is now moving in a much more purposeful manner. Its orientation changes from time to time; it is rearing, again, here. Now the suction tip has not actually touched the child, even though the child is extremely agitated and moving in a violent manner. The child is now moved back to the profile view, and the suction tip is flashing once again across the screen. The child’s mouth is now open, and we will see that again on a freeze-frame in a moment. But this suction tip, which you can see moving violently back and forth on the bottom of the screen, is the lethal instrument which will ultimately tear apart and destroy the child. It is only after the fluid has been broken, the sack has been disrupted, that the tip will actually come against the child; but we can see the tip moving back and forth, as the abortionist seeks the child’s body.
