Dr levatino will begin with you welcome
thank you chairman and members of the
committee second trimester DNA abortions
perform between roughly 4 and 24 weeks
of gation your patient today is 17 years
old she's 22 weeks pregnant her baby is
the length of your hand plus a couple of
inches and she's been feeling her baby
kick for the last several weeks but
she's asleep on an operating room table
you walk into that operating room
scrubbed and gwn and after removing
laminaria you introduce a suction
catheter into the uterus this is a 14
French suction catheter if she were 12
weeks pregnant or less basically the
width of your hand is smaller you could
basically do the entire procedure with
this but baby's this big don't fit
through catheters this size after
suctioning the amniotic fluid out from
around the baby you introduce an
instrument called a suur clamp it's
about 13 in long it's made of stainless
steel the business end of this clamp is
about 2 and 1/2 in long and a half inch
wide there are rows of sharp teeth this
is a grasping instrument when it gets a
hold of something it does not let go a
procedure is a blind abortion so picture
yourself introducing this and grabbing
anything you can blindly and Pull and I
do mean hard and out pops a leg about
that big which you put down in the the
table next to you reaching again pull
again pull out an arm about the same
length which you put down on the table
next to you and use this instrument
again and again to tear out the spine
the intestines the heart and
lungs it didn't have a heartbeat it
didn't have a face it didn't have
feelings it was a clump of cells and
tissue I can also promise you that had I
been forced to see this pregnancy
through I would have done what women
have done for all the decades
people like you have been trying to stop
abortions I would have gone to any
length medically overseen or not to end
my pregnancy now we are living in such
depravity that there are people like the
people that oppose this bill that are
willing to say I know it's a human being
I know it has a heartbeat I know there
is life there and I know it is innocent
and I'm willing to kill it you know
earlier on I described stacking a body
part on the side of the table when you
do an an abortion you need to keep
inventory you have to make sure you get
two arms and two legs and all the pieces
after all the parts were accounted for
the POC lab technician would dump
everything out into a glass baking dish
that sat on top of an x-ray light box
and she would reassemble the parts of
the baby I'm talking about first
trimester abortion yes there are Parts
yes they must be reassembled the baby is
fully formed every internal organ is
formed by 12 weeks gestation so yes
there are Parts even earlier than 12
weeks over 1200 abortions first and
second trimester up to 24 weeks and all
the rest of it and being very dedicated
to it for the first time in my life I
really looked at that pile of body parts
on the side of the table and I didn't
see her wonderful right to choose and I
didn't see all the money I just made all
I could see was somebody's son or
daughter the
epidemis a tightly coiled 6 M long tube
which can hold over a billion sperm
[Music]
sperm are really quite unique because
they're almost like free living cells
they almost have a life of their own
they have but one aim which is to
deliver a genetic payload from the
male to the female through a really
quite complex series of environments
both in the male and the female
reproductive
tract you've got hundreds of millions of
cells that are swimming wildly about
you've got a lot of death you've got a
lot of obstacles to overcome sperm PS
are considered low if the count is
generally less than 20 million sperm per
milliliter of ejaculate some experts
considered less than 15 million per
milliliter as being the lower limit of
normal well they never ask for
directions which is part of the problem
the concentration of sperm in the sample
is 87 million the average man will have
60 to 80 million sperms how much sperm
per milliliter a man makes in a man that
has a 2ml ejaculate which is about a
half a teaspoon that's sort of in that
normal range how many millions per
ejaculate he makes and a normal number
should be somewhere around 20 million or
higher I've also seen men that come in
and have 200 million sperm per
milliliter we have sunk to a new low in
our society taking the life of an
innocent human being that is your own
flesh and blood and your own DNA it's
not normal and it is time for us to
rectify what we have
done lust is a sexual desire that
dishonors its object and disregards God
the lusted
woman or man in your head or on the
screen or on the street is Dishonored
not treated as a sacred precious Eternal
person in the image of God and it had
nothing to do with religious shame I
didn't really grow up religious I simply
realized at that time I couldn't even
not do it for a day to allow my injuries
to heal over 10 hours a day I tried to
quit dozens of times hundreds of times I
I realized that I essentially
conditioned my brain to prefer pixels
over you know people and partners very
few people realize just how addictive
pornography really is pornography is as
addictive as crack cocaine one exposure
to a 13-year-old boy at just the right
time and he will grab that and it will
become very much a part of him and will
be there for the rest of his life life
it functions very much like drugs you
take a little bit and it goes a long
ways but you bore with that and you take
a little more and you need more and you
need more and you need more like I
didn't never think that you know
watching porn and you know doing drugs
was going to have me one day talking to
you but I'm here it's me Terry Cruz
again the subject is Dirty Little Secret
for years years years my dirty little
secret was that I was addicted to
pornography so that you begin with soft
core pornography that's Playboy
Penthouse Playboy was my Gateway into
fullon pornography addiction my dad had
a Playboy left out at age 5 and it's
affected almost every choice I made for
the rest of my life M from age five to
now having to kick the habit and it just
presents itself in the open like it's
okay and I stand up and say you know
it's not okay people are brainwashed by
it people are addicted to it it is the
modern-day cigarette some people drown
themselves in drugs and I drown myself
in my addiction which was what sex I try
to stay off of pornography man that's
one of my biggest artch Nemesis is uh
pornography why cuz it just weakens me
it just yeah how so you know my
fantasies and stuff they're not mine
anymore then what happens with an
addiction to pornography is you go from
there to a little fire Trail a a little
barrier where you've seen everything
that a man and woman can do together now
what because see one of the
characteristics of of pornography is
that you bore with it this stage becomes
boring very quickly you know somebody
created them better than my imagination
can and so they live in these you know
on the internet in these boxes and it's
like not having to be engaged with my
actual feelings or anything so and when
I am engaging with somebody that I care
about or something it just doesn't
calculate for me emotionally as well uh
but it does it's definitely made it
tougher for me over the years I think it
should be shut down man I think it's
harming a lot of men man I really really
do but it also impacted my relationships
people who spend too much time uh
watching pornography they have trouble
performing uh with regular sex it was
something that you know my wife was
literally like I don't know you anymore
I'm out of here I mean it just takes out
the intimacy there's definitely ly a
danger in like immediate access to
pornography today it's the most
immediate access cuz you get it on your
phone oh you can get it yeah you pull up
your laptop open it up type in some
words it's so easy this has never been
the case before I it's it's unlike any
other time period in human history when
you have instant access to things you
can abuse it then you move on to another
one and you're walking down this path
what happens when you get to the point
that you've seen it all this morning
more Hollywood heavyweights are being
accused of sexual harassment there are
new developments in the Scandal
involving movie Mogul Harvey Weinstein
new allegations though against Kevin
spacy Louis CK James toac Jeffrey
Tambour director Brett rner actor James
Franco actor Dustin Hoffman you recently
revealed you were sexually assaulted by
a director well why did you reveal it
there is a bit of a Witch Hunt happening
it's across every industry focus seems
to be on
Hollywood but it's across every industry
even like that freaky weird foul that be
going on like you hear about it but it's
it's it's dark and demonic energy that
this industry was built on and people
manipulate young women they manipulate
kids and at the end of the day it's off
of the dollar and all the feed their ego
so I've seen where you like that's just
not
[Music]
right and they go to the perversions the
biggest political scandal Britain has
ever faced it involves a secret network
of the highest office holders in the
land cabinet ministers judges diplomats
even one of the country's top spies
these men are accused of some of the
most sadistic child sexual abuse
imaginable on hundreds of victims now I
wish I have moved this whole thing over
because the the final stage of
this is death you're essentially deep
personalizing the person in front of you
and imagining porn in your head to
actually maintain arousal I realized at
that point it was out of control for the
record you are guilty of killing many
women and
girls yes that's true Ted how did it
happen my experience with I say
pornography generally but with
pornography that deals on a violent
level with sexuality once you become a
addicted to it and I look at this as a
kind of addiction I would keep looking
for more potent more explicit more
graphic kinds of material like an
addiction you keep craving something
which is harder harder something which
which gives you a greater sense of
excitement it changes the way you think
about people people become objects
people become body parts they become
things to be used rather than people to
be loved it's a process that doesn't
happen over night uh when you uh
depersonalize another person and view
them as just an object uh an object for
pleasure instead of a a living breathing
human being it seems to make it easier
to uh do things you shouldn't do I just
view things as objects people animals
the trees cars they're just all the same
to me I just feel everything's pretty
much is on this Earth's a waste of time
really well then let me ask you John
does it make it easier to kill someone
because you you Vision everything you
look at everything other than your
family as just one and the same
basically an object right does that make
it
easier I would have to say it would
until you reach the point where the
pornography only goes so far you reach
that jumping off point where you begin
to wonder if if maybe actually doing it
will give you that which is beyond just
reading about it or looking at it you're
essentially depersonalizing the person
in front of you I desensitize myself to
it I had uh these obsessive uh desires
and uh Thoughts wanting to control them
and all the pornography that I had been
buying renting swapping I had got my
hands on some bondage and discipline
pornography I had eventually started
using some of this bondage and
discipline because of the excitement
that was very arousing and heightening
to me we are your sons and we are your
husbands we grew up in regular families
and pornography can reach out and snatch
a kid out of any house today it snatch
me out of my home 20 30 years ago and as
diligent as my parents were there is no
protection I was saving body parts such
as uh skulls and uh skeletons no one had
a clue as to what was happening there
was no clue it was my secret nobody knew
and that allowed it to grow you start
out with tame stuff and little by little
you go up to more and more extreme acts
it was something that had taken time to
build up it didn't just happen it's took
time to build that up I had been
fantasizing about killing I believe it
would have been maybe as short as
another month or two and I would have
actually killed him if I was not
arrested death I'm no social scientist
and I haven't done a survey but I've
lived in prison for a long time now I've
met a lot of men who were motivated to
commit violence just like me and without
exception every one of them was deeply
involved in pron graphy without question
without exception deeply influenced and
consumed by an addiction to pornography
there's no question about at the FBI's
own study on serial homicide shows that
the most common interest among serial
killers is
pornography e
[Applause]
[Music]
for several months now I spent a lot of
time in the Deep Web after coming home
from school I would sit at my computer
and serve the net until late in the
night I know a lot of people who were
using Deep Web most of them were just
curious or find it exact exciting
because there is much stuff which is
banned apart from that deep web was
always a good topic of conversation at
break time today Deep Web has become a
trend but for me I think it is something
else Deep Web fascinates me there I'm
free there nobody knows who I am I
noticed that slowly but surely an
addiction is developing most people call
it an addiction but for me it's a brand
new passion a deep rooted passion that
awakes new Cravings in me every day I
get to know a new side of me I chat with
many different people and exchange
information I watch a lot of videos but
I like what I see but at this point I
should admit that I am a teenager with a
small sadistic vein I get bored very
quickly and because of that I am always
on the look out for such material and so
I died deeper and deeper into the Deep
Web I saw things that far exeeded my
imagination but after a while even this
stuff became boring and uninteresting to
me one day when looking for the next
violent material I stumbled on a chat it
was a chat room for murderers and
pedopiles I read a few comments and
grinned a little I was Bo so I decided
to go with it I logged in and off I went
I spent so much time in the Deep Web I
saw myself as kind of professional and
went about it all so confidently it
started to become second nature I made
fun of the people in this chat room I
claimed that I was a hacker and now I
had their data and was going to send it
to the local police it was a lot of fun
other users started sending me death
threats but I just couldn't stop I just
wrote one stupid comment after the other
sooner or later I received a message
from the site admin he wrote If I was
aware of what I'm doing and if I knew
the
consequences I was equipped with the
latest firewall I was not afraid of him
I laughed out loud and
celebrated suddenly my screen went blank
I thought what's going on suddenly
pictures of dead people came every
second the images alternated faster and
faster I tried all the possible key
combinations to stop it but it was no
use slowly a strange feeling came over
me I was about to get up and pulled a
plug for my computer then I saw it I was
petrified my eyes could not believe what
they just saw I was rigid with fear the
terrible slide had stopped and only saw
a picture a picture
of me I had forgotten to turn off my
webcam again someone must have hacked my
computer and took photos of me I stared
at this image for several minutes and I
didn't know what to do suddenly the
image disappeared and I was in the chat
room again I was briefly relieved but
then came the next Mega shocker it hit
me right in the face my picture was
visible for every user to see it brain
death threats and hate comments they
wrote everything about what they would
do to me and my family but that was not
the worst of it under my picture was my
real full name and my exact current full
address
