Original Note:
“A count of 193 fetuses were evidently over 20 weeks' gestation” This represents .01% of all remains found. This would not be considered “many” as the author claims and is a negligible count. This aligns with abortion rates where 98.7% are performed prior to 20 weeks. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Los_Angeles_fetus_disposal_scandal#:~:text=The%20tally%20of%20fetuses%20was,%22within%20a%20reasonable%20time%22. https://www.motherjones.com/kevin-drum/2019/04/raw-data-abortions-by-week-of-pregnancy/
