An undercover video investigation The Center for Medical Progress (CMP) conducted a few years ago found that Planned Parenthood of San Diego was selling aborted baby parts and tissue for a fee. More recently, founder and President David Daleiden used a court order to obtain documents from the University of California San Diego.
He reports that the incriminating terms of the ongoing relationship are spelled out in a "Biological Materials Transfer Agreement" (MTA) contract between Planned Parenthood of San Diego (PPSD) and the University of California (UC) San Diego.
"It's a contract that Planned Parenthood has had with UC San Diego for the past 15 years, where Planned Parenthood is explicitly contracted in black and white letter writing with the University of California to provide aborted baby body parts to them for – quote – 'valuable consideration,' which is a violation of federal law," Daleiden notes.
Though the transfer of any aborted human fetal tissue for "valuable consideration" is a felony punishable by up to 10 years in prison or a fine of up to $500,000, public databases show UC San Diego professors have developed numerous patents using aborted fetal body parts.
UC's total patent invention revenue for 2021-2022 was over $127 million.
"They're providing the proprietary aborted babies for valuable consideration to the University of California in exchange for Planned Parenthood retaining ownership of any intellectual property or patent applications or patent rights that the University of California researchers develop using these so-called proprietary aborted baby parts from Planned Parenthood," Daleiden explains.
He is requesting documentation from the National Institutes of Health on contracts with UC to find out if Planned Parenthood is violating federal law again.
