Congressman Keith Self has taken a strong stance in demanding justice for the 'DC Five,' a group of unborn children whose bodies were found abandoned outside an abortion facility in Washington. In a letter addressed to the DC Chief Medical Examiner, Dr. Francisco J. Diaz, Congressman Self insisted on an independent investigation and autopsies for the deceased infants.
"The humanity of these children is incontrovertible. They were human beings, weeks from birth, growing just as we all do from conception to natural death and they were brutally killed by abortion," expressed Congressman Keith Self passionately.
Highlighting the illegal nature of the act, Congressman Self emphasized, "While other forms of abortion tragically remain legal, one kind—partial-birth abortion—was prohibited by Congress over 20 years ago. As such, my colleagues and I will continue to press for justice in this case until those responsible for obstructing it are held accountable."
The discovery of the five unborn children's bodies sparked outrage among medical professionals, with concerns raised about the possibility of partial-birth abortion being involved. Despite this, the lack of immediate investigation and the subsequent arrest of a woman involved in the discovery have raised questions about the handling of the case.
Efforts to obtain autopsies on the bodies of the deceased infants have been met with resistance from DC city officials, prompting Congressman Self to intervene and demand transparency and accountability in the investigation.
As Congressman Self remains steadfast in seeking justice for the 'DC Five,' the public awaits further developments in this harrowing case.
