Claims of Fetal Organ Trafficking from New Jersey Abortion Clinic

A couple has stated that their five-month-old infant was born alive at a New Jersey abortion clinic, only to be trafficked for organ harvesting. They named their daughter Clementine.

These assertions are explored in a new documentary titled “What Happened to Clementine?” produced by the Center for Medical Advancement. In the film, Tommy Kearns, Clementine’s father, along with her mother, who opted to remain anonymous, shared their experiences.

The parents are left asking, “Where is our child?”

Kearns expressed his distress to a news outlet, saying, “If Clementine’s scalp is growing on the back of a lab rat, that question isn’t scientific. It’s about our child. How long is her hair? What color is it? She’s a human being, not just a tissue sample.”

He went on to assert, “We believe this is a kidnapping.”

“I want to know where her body is. The experiments that they are conducting are illegal and should be stopped,” he added.

Clementine’s mother reflected on the pressures that led her to the Cherry Hill Women’s Center. “I had no job, no money, living at my mom’s place, dealing with a car that barely worked… I just wanted everything to be right,” she recounted.

In March 2024, she contacted the Cherry Hill Clinic for advice. “I didn’t even know what an abortion was. Nobody explained anything. I was just asking questions,” she admitted.

The clinic, situated in New Jersey, is supposed to respect women’s legal rights when seeking an abortion. Various sources indicate that procedures can be performed up to 28 weeks, with significant survival rates for premature babies at that stage.

According to claims made by David Daleiden in the documentary, Cherry Hill Women’s Center has a history of serving as a site for fetal organ collection.

“This isn’t just an isolated event; it’s a systemic issue,” he commented.

Daleiden, a pro-life journalist, elaborated, saying this case marks the first occasion where parents of a child believed to be killed for organ harvesting have quickly come forward, expressing feelings of being wronged.

“This situation appears to involve a true crime, where a baby, born alive and entitled to civil rights, was allegedly killed for organ harvesting at a government-funded clinic,” he stated.

The documentary raises further concerns about the clinic’s practices, suggesting that even after Clementine’s mother indicated she was under the influence of marijuana, preparations for her abortion proceeded.

Clementine was reportedly around 20 weeks gestation and had a heartbeat when her mother underwent the procedure involving aggressive cervical dilation, typically done with anesthesia.

Documents obtained through the film indicate that the clinic sought consent to inject a substance to halt the pregnancy’s progression, a consent form that the parents claim was never signed. Speculation arose that the director might have intended to keep the infant unharmed to prevent tissue degradation.

Records seem to show that a doctor noted “fetal death” had not been administered.

Clementine’s mother received high doses of misoprostol, which can induce prolonged labor.

According to Daleiden, “The protocols and medications used in this case were standard practice at Cherry Hill, which has a history of involvement in organ harvesting.”

The parents allege that they were not informed about the possibility of their baby’s tissues being harvested prior to the procedure.

The documentary highlights that, during delivery, Clementine’s mother was given a consent form for organ removal that she felt pressured to sign without reading. “I was terrified of dying. I thought I had no option. I trusted them… so I just signed it,” she recounted.

Daleiden added, “Even if there are only a few clinics across the nation involved in this, it’s alarming and wrong that such practices could occur in facilities funded by taxpayers.”

He pointed out that the Center for Medical Advancement reviewed records showing approximately 3,000 patients at a Southern California clinic had undergone fetal organ harvesting over a four-year span.

The New Jersey Department of Health announced earlier that inspections had uncovered significant deficiencies in nursing services at Cherry Hill Women’s Center, mandating the clinic to implement corrective measures.
