Infamous late-term abortionist who wrote about 'dismembering' babies closes Colorado clinic

After 55 years of performing late-term abortions, Dr. Warren Hern retires his Boulder practice, leaving behind a detailed written legacy of how fetuses are torn apart in the womb.

Hern, who has detailed the gruesome procedure of "dismembering" fetuses during third-trimester abortions in his writings, said that although he loves his work, he has "wanted for years to be free from the operating room and the daily cares of a private medical practice." Jamie Joseph is a U.S. Politics reporter for Fox News Digital covering transgender and culture issues, the Departments of Education and Health and Human Services, and stateside legislative developments.

"When I have a patient, I can't do anything else. Her safety and well-being is my priority. Nothing else matters while her life is at stake," he wrote.
