DR. MORLEY'S BABY STRANGLING EXPERIMENT - REVISITED
(WHY IMMEDIATE CORD CLAMPING IS CHILD ABUSE)

Attn Oregon Atty Genl Hardy Meyers (via hardy.myers(a)state.or.us):
Mass child abuse report.

In 2005, I wrote:

Dr. Morley's baby asphyxiation experiment has been taken off the web.

It is reproduced below.

[2007 update: Dr. Morley's bizarre child abuse experiment is still on
the web - Google's search engine finds it in my posts and at
http://www.whale.to/a/morley3.html. Also, Dr. Morley's new website
www.cordclamp.com has an archive where his baby strangling experiment
may be found: http://web.archive.org/web/20040929080014/www.cordclamping.com/acog-cp.htm]

A PEDIATRICIAN CHEERLEADS FOR THE MASS CHILD ABUSE

Pseudonymous usenet pediatrician PF Riley, MD wrote:

>> [Gastaldo] was caught trying to claim the AAP is opposed

I certainly HOPE that AAP is opposed to immediate cord clamping!

Obstetricians are immediately clamping/cutting umbilical cords -
asphyxiating babies - denying them umbilical cord oxygen - forcing
them to
breathe with their lungs before they are ready - and in the
process robbing babies of up to 50% of their blood volume.

ODDLY, after reading one of my protests of this bizarre obstetric
crime,
pseudonymous usenet pediatrician PF Riley, MD actually exclaimed "Go
obstetricians!" as in,

"I sure hope obstetricians keep clamping cords right away. Go
obstetricians!"
http://groups.google.com/group/
misc.kids.pregnancy/msg/60fe8367e7ea88b1

And now, as noted above, pediatrician PF says I was caught trying to
claim
that AAP is opposed to immediate cord clamping.

Again, I certainly HOPE that AAP is opposed to immediate cord
clamping!

Retired obstetrician George Malcolm Morley, ChB FACOG indicates that
the
baby asphyxiation/baby blood robbery (immediate cord clamping) happens
to
EVERY CESAREAN BABY and in
most "cord blood banking" births...

See www.cordclamping.com (not accessible) - excerpts in Water birth
and
breathing without lungs...
http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/chiro-list/message/3936

BUT DR. MORLEY IS MISSING A BEAT - FAILING TO REPORT OBVIOUS CHILD
ABUSE

Instead of reporting the mass baby asphyxiation/mass baby blood
robbery
(it's obvious mass child abuse), Dr. Morley published an obviously
illegal
TEMPORARY baby asphyxiation experiment to help obstetricians
demonstrate to
themselves that they shouldn't PERMANENTLY deny umbilical cord oxygen
and
rob babies of blood.

[2007 update: Dr. Morley once accused me of perpetuating the mass
child abuse - by urging him to report it! See Babies gasping:
Michigan sheriffs to do "child abuse raid" on hospitals?
http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/chiro-list/message/2618 ]

[2007 update: Assuming Dr. Morley is still in Northport,
Michigan...Here's the relevant Michigan law as I quoted it in "Babies
gasping":

"722.623 Persons required to report child abuse or neglect...(1) An
individual is required to report under this act as follows...(a) A
physician...who has reasonable cause to suspect child abuse or neglect
shall
make immediately, by telephone or otherwise, an oral report...Within
72
hours...the reporting person shall file a written report as required
in this
act..."]

DR. MORLEY'S WEBSITE WAS TAKEN DOWN...

I asked Oregon Atty Gen'l Hardy Myers to either get Dr. Morley's child
abuse
recommendation off the web - or - better - get it labelled as child
abuse.

Shortly after - Dr. Morley's entire site was taken down.

I SUSPECT Dr. Morley's site was taken down because someone in law
enforcement agreed with me that Dr. Morley's experiment is obvious
child
abuse and acted...

Then again, PERMANENT asphyxiation/denial of umbilical cord oxygen is
still
going on - why would law enforcement only stop Dr. Morley from
recommending
the temporary baby asphyxiation experiment?

Note also: When one clicks on www.cordclamping.com one reads a
message
saying that the www.cord.clamping.com domain has been "suspended."
Perhaps
that just means that Dr. Morley et al. stopped paying to have
www.cordclamping.com on the web.

[2007 update: I was apparently wrong about the Oregon Atty Genl
having anything to do with the disappearance of Dr. Morley's first
website. Dr. Morley's baby strangling experiment is still on the web
- and may be accessed in an archive, see above.]

DR. MORLEY'S CHILD ABUSE EXPERIMENT

WHATEVER THE REASON DR. MORLEY'S WEBSITE IS GONE...

Here is Dr. Morley's child abuse experiment for those who missed it:

"[T]he umbilical cord [is] immediately closed between finger and
thumb...The
[fetal heart rate/FHR] will decelerate quickly to about 60 bpm...the
color
will change from purple-pink (normal at birth) to pallid blue
(vaso-constriction and asphyxia.)...Few midwives or obstetricians will
be
able to observe, without interference, a deep, prolonged FHR
deceleration on
a non-breathing newborn for a period of 60 seconds. Common sense will
soon
release the finger and thumb."
http://www.cordclamping.com/acog-cp.htm <--LINK NO LONGER WORKS (last
tried
Oct. 17, 2005)

PEDIATRICIAN FAILURE TO REPORT CHILD ABUSE - ALSO A CRIME...

Pediatricians know that failure to report child abuse is a child abuse
crime
because it can perpetuate child abuse.

Pediatrician KC Finkel, MD noted in the AMA's pediatric journal in
1986:

"What a terrible indictment...guilty of failing those for whom we
have
chosen to be advocates."
[Finkel KC. The failure to report child abuse. AJDC. 1986;140:329-30.
Quoted
by Gastaldo.]

TWO QUESTIONS FOR PEDIATRICIAN PF RILEY, MD...

1. Do you suspect that Dr. Morley's temporary baby asphyxiation
experiment
is child abuse?

2. Do you still say "Go obstetricians!" to obstetricians many (most?)
of
whom perform the temporary baby asphyxiation experiment then embellish
it by
PERMANENTLY cutting off umbilical oxygen and robbing babies of up to
50% of
their blood volume?

[2007 update: To my knowledge, PF never replied.]

Your answers have to be no - otherwise you would be agreeing with me
and
reporting the suspected child abuse to help end it.

I say you HAVE to say no because your fellow MDs could go to prison.

I say you are protecting your fellow MDs - cheerleading their child
abuse -
babies be damned.

A SAD FACT...

Law enforcement/the courts will mostly only listen to MDs in regard
to
medical procedures.

Law enforcement will ignore obvious MD lies (and the MD lies are
obvious;
see "Dents" in the postscript)...

This law enforcement failure to enforce is why Steve B. Harris, MD
can
arrogantly boast:

"Without enforcement, there is no
law. Without law, there is no crime. These are elementary principles.
Get
an adult to explain them to you."
http://groups.google.com/group/
misc.kids.pregnancy/msg/28866f3384801ae9

ATTENTION OREGON ATTY GENL HARDY MYERS:

SINCERE HOPE #1: MDs won't keep asphyxiating babies and robbing them
of
massive amounts of blood.

SINCERE HOPE #2: Eventually - soon - law enforcement will act to help
babies, assuming MDs don't stop the mass child abuse on their own.

To speed an end to the mass child abuse I am in favor of pardons in
advance
for MDs. As medical students, MDs are TRAINED to perform mass
felonies.
(The mass baby asphyxiation is just one MD felony - see "Dents"
below.)

George,

If your website was taken down for lack of funds, I will work raise
funds to
get it "unsuspended" for one year - as long as your recommended baby
asphyxiation experiment is properly labelled as child abuse - with an
online
note from you that you no longer recommend it and that you have
reported
immediate cord clamping as child abuse and recommend that your fellow
medical doctors do the same.

[2007 update: George never replied. I am cc'ing him via info(a)birth-
brain-injury.org, which is the domain for what is apparently his
newest website: "The objective of this web site is to prevent neonatal
cerebral palsy (CP) and to eliminate brain injury litigation from
obstetrical practice."]

[2007 update: George: Brain injury litigation could explode when the
OB lies are finally exposed. You could help - but your focus is
PROFESSIONAL health - not the health of babies.]

[2007 update: For the OB lies - they are WHOPPERS - see: Lancet vs.
Babies (also: A British GP vs. Peta Dowle, editor of 'Positive Birth
Dunedin')
http://groups.google.com/group/sci.med/msg/789aa2433518b6f9]


As indicated above George, I am in favor of pardons in advance for
MDs. As
medical students, MDs (and MBs) are TRAINED to "perform" mass
felonies.

USENETTERS: UNNECESSARY C-SECTIONS, UNNECESSARY EPISIOTOMIES,
UNNECESSARY
FORCEPS...

For other mass felonies "performed" by MDs (and MBs) - for example -
MDs and
MBs closing birth canals up to 30% and keeping birth canals closed
the
"extra" up to 30% when babies get stuck - as they pull with hands,
forceps
and vacuums - sometimes pulling so hard that spinal nerves are ripped
out of
tiny spinal cords...

See Dents in babies' skulls...
http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/chiro-list/message/3897

Obstetricians are slicing vaginas and abdomens en masse
(episiotomy/c-section) - surgically inferring they are doing/have
done
everything possible to open birth canals - even as they close birth
canals
the "extra" up to 30%.

To be sure, compelling obstetricians to allow birth canals to open
the
"extra" up to 30% is not going to prevent all episiotomies, c-sections
or
forceps deliveries - it's just that obstetricians have no business
closing
birth canals the "extra" up to 30%.

Regarding obstetricians' just mentioned bizarre birth-canal-closing
behavior, my post "Dents in babies' skull" has the Four OB cover-up
lies
(they are whoppers).

Let's end the mass child abuse finally, George.

Sincerely,

Your friend.

KELLY MOSCARELLO

Kelly Moscarello recently wrote to me publicly:

Hi Todd,

Just wanted to say hi and to tell you to keep up the good work.
Everyone is doing well and I am continuing my fight on the
battlegrounds here. Always tough, but I keep trying,

Take care,

Kelly
http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/chiro-list/message/4561

OPEN LETTER archived for global access; see below.

Kelly Moscarello
via chiro-list...

Kelly,

Thanks for writing to me publicly.

Am I remembering correctly that years ago when you transported from
your homebirth, a nurse at the hospital reported you for suspected
child abuse for deigning to attempt to birth at home?

Did you yourself ever file a suspected child abuse report - not just
in regard to Bella's care but in regard to MDs EN MASSE closing birth
canals up to 30% and robbing babies of up to 50% of baby blood volume?

Did you ever publicly ask George Malcolm Morley, MB ChB FACOG why HE
hasn't yet reported suspected child abuse?

DOES George Malcolm Morley, MB ChB FACOG suspect child abuse?

Or was it just a spoof when he wrote:

"I AM WILLING TO TESTIFY AND OFFER PROOF that immediate cord clamping
at
birth causes attention deficit disorders, learning disabilities,
behavioral
disorders, mental retardation, respiratory distress syndrome, and
intraventricular hemorrhage, and cerebral palsy." (See the
postscript.)

And what about that medical doctor who told you that immediate cord
clamping is "beyond" child abuse?

Was THAT just a spoof too?

It is a CRIME (failure to report) when medical doctors fail to use the
child protection statutes to protect children when they so much as
SUSPECT child abuse.

(Thanks, BTW, for reminding me awhile back that George Malcolm Morley,
MB ChB FACOG accused ME of child abuse - for trying to use the child
abuse statutes to stop MD-obstetricians from committing child abuse.
What a card George is!)

You said the fight has been tough...

It is indeed tough when laws designed specifically to protect children
are not used to protect children.

Suspected child abuse reports from "friendly" physicians would be best
- but reports from an army of moms and dads might also be powerful.

If your "fight on the battlegrounds" still doesn't include simply
reporting suspected child abuse and publicly urging others - esp.
"friendly" medical doctors - to do the same, you are still missing an
important beat in your battle strategy.

Thanks for the quick hello and the compliment.

I am glad you are persevering.

(ANTIFLUORIDE FOLKS: SEE MY SIMPLE QUESTION AT THE END OF THIS
POST.)

DA TONY: **MORE** ROUTINE CHILD ABUSE BY OBs...

IMMEDIATE CORD CLAMPING...

The American Academy of Pediatrics says "aggressive" immediate cord
clamping/ICC is "unethical," as in,

"There may be a temptation to practice immediate cord clamping [ICC]
aggressively to increase the volume of cord blood that can be
harvested for
cord blood banking. This practice is unethical and should be
discouraged."
(full cite below)

TRANSLATION: Immediate cord clamping - "aggressive" or otherwise - is
CHILD
ABUSE and should be abolished immediately.

Retired obstetrician GM Morley, MB ChB FACOG says:

"I AM WILLING TO TESTIFY AND OFFER PROOF that immediate cord clamping
at
birth causes attention deficit disorders, learning disabilities,
behavioral
disorders, mental retardation, respiratory distress syndrome, and
intraventricular hemorrhage, and cerebral palsy." (full statement
below)

PREGNANT WOMEN:

To PREVENT immediate cord clamping (child abuse): Just tell your OB
or
CNMwife not to clamp your baby's cord until the umbilical cord stops
pulsating and your baby is pink and breathing.

Let them "harvest" your baby's blood AFTER he is done with it.

DISNEYLAND DA TONY RACKAUCKAS and MICHIGAN SHERIFFS indeed sheriffs
everywhere: Please stop this obvious mass child abuse.

HERE IS DR. MORLEY'S NOTARIZED STATEMENT...

G. M. Morley, MB ChB FACOG
P. O. Box 181
Northport, MI 49670

August 29, 2001

To Whom It May Concern:

Name: GEORGE MALCOLM MORLEY, MB ChB FACOG

Curriculum. Vitae. I graduated from Edinburgh University medical
School in
1957, completed a rotating membership in Michigan in 1958 and
completed a
residency in obstetrics and gynecology in 1962 when I began private
practice. I became boar certified in obstetrics and gynecology in 1966
and
am currently a member of Michigan State Medical Society and a Fellow
of the
American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology. I retired from practice
in
1999.

Publications: A full review article entitled Cord Closure: Can Hasty
Clamping Injure the Newborn? In OBG MANAGEMENT, July 1998. Two
letters
published in OBG MANAGEMENT in February 1998 and May 1999. Four
letters
published in OBSTETRICS & GYNECOLOGY in August 2000, January 2001, and
in
June 2001 (2).

The basic premises on which Ms Young's complaint is founded are:

1.That immediately after the birth of all children, the cord and
placenta
continue to supply the child with oxygen and blood.

2.That after the lungs are supplying the child with oxygen and after
the
child has received enough blood from the placenta for optimal
survival, the
cord vessels close naturally.

3.That interruption of the placental supply of oxygen and blood by
means of
a cord clamp before the lungs are functioning and before the child
has
attained an optimal blood volume may cause permanent injury to the
child.

My publications and all other publications in my possession support
the
truth of the above premises.

The American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ACOG Educational
Bulletin
216, Nov. 1995) and the Society of Obstetricians and Gynecologists of
Canada
(SOGC Policy Statement No. 89, May 2000) advise immediate clamping of
the
cord at birth. Because of this advise and current early cord clamping
habits
fostered by the profession, few newborns today have optimal
oxygenation or
optimal blood volumes; many are needlessly injured by premature cord
clamping.

I AM WILLING TO TESTIFY AND OFFER PROOF that immediate cord clamping
at
birth causes attention deficit disorders, learning disabilities,
behavioral
disorders, mental retardation, respiratory distress syndrome, and
intraventricular hemorrhage, and cerebral palsy.

G. M. MORLEY, signature and date: August 29, 2001

(My commission Expires: August 11, 2003)

HERE IS A FULLER EXCERPT OF THE AAP STATEMENT...

"JUST" ANEMIA LATER IN LIFE?^^^

American Academy of Pediatrics Policy Statement on Cord Blood Banking
(excerpt)

The importance of larger numbers of stem cells to the success of
engraftment
could encourage the attendance at delivery by a physician or other
health
care personnel to attempt to harvest more cord blood. It has been
shown that
the timing of umbilical cord clamping has an important effect on the
neonatal blood volume and the subsequent hematologic status. If cord
clamping is done too soon after birth, the infant may be deprived of
a
placental blood transfusion, resulting in lower blood volume and
increased
risk for anemia^^^ in later life. Immediate cord clamping will, of
course,
increase the volume of placental blood for harvesting for cord blood
banking. There may be a temptation to practice immediate cord
clamping
aggressively to increase the volume of cord blood that can be
harvested for
cord blood banking. This practice is unethical and should be
discouraged.

Pediatrics, Volume 104, Number 1, July 1999, pp 116-118.

For complete policy statement, see http://www.aap.org/policy/re9860.html

PS Disneyland DA Tony Rackauckas: Now that Christopher Bryson's The
Fluoride Deception has been published - it is time to stop mass child
abuse
via the water supply - it is time to stop public officials from
injecting
the toxic fertilizer waste hydrofluorosilicic acid into Disneyland's
drinking water.

THINK ABOUT IT! Fluoridated water can cause "crippling skeletal
fluorosis"
if consumed over 10 to 20 years at fluoride levels that are HALF the
EPA's
permissible level - this according to our own National Academy of
Sciences!!!

See Disneyland's

who
are telling sheriffs and DAs that injecting this toxic waste
(euphemism
"fluoride") into our drinking water is child abuse?

Are there any other doctors of chiropractic (besides me) who are
telling
sheriffs and DAs that OBs are knowingly closing birth canals and
gruesomely
(sometimes fatally) manipulating most babies' spines!?
