CHICAGO (AP) In whats sure to be a politically charged ceremony, more than 2,400 fetuses found last year at the suburban Chicago home of one of the Midwests most prolific abortion doctors will be buried Wednesday in Indiana, a state with some of the nations toughest anti-abortion laws.
Indianas top law enforcement official will preside over the mass burial in South Bend. The service comes five months after relatives sorting through Dr. Ulrich Klopfers belongings after his Sept. 3 death came across 2,246 sets of preserved fetal remains stacked floor to ceiling in his garage. Later, 165 more were found in a trunk of a car at a business where Klopfer kept several vehicles.

OMG! What timing to discover something so horrific.
Okay, is this fake news? The burial will be in South Bend! The town Mayor Pete is Mayor.
Update: I see there has been reporting on this story over the past few months as they find more fetuses in bags. I guess I missed it.

That makes no sense.
