Investigators say lack of oversight allowed Gosnell's
abortion facility to operate in horrific conditions. Bags of
aborted babies were found throughout the building,
according to news reports. "In case after case, Dr. Gosnell
and his assistants induced labor, forced the live birth of
viable babies in the sixth, seventh and eight month of
pregnancy, and then killed those babies by cutting into the
back of their necks with scissors and severing their spinal
cords," said Philadelphia District Attorney Seth Williams. .
