🎯IMPACT: Renewed demands for accountability and justice for the D.C. five, highlighting the Biden-era DOJ’s controversial actions.
Rep. Riley Moore (R-WV) has called on Attorney General Pam Bondi to investigate the deaths of the “D.C. Five,” five babies whose remains were recovered from a Washington, D.C., abortion clinic in 2022. The discovery raised allegations of infanticide and violations of the Partial-Birth Abortion Act and the Born-Alive Infant Protection Act.
The babies’ remains were found at a facility operated by Cesare Santangelo, a late-term abortionist. During a June 23, 2025, hearing, Moore accused the Biden regime’s Department of Justice (DOJ) of suppressing the case by ordering the destruction of the babies’ remains without proper autopsies. “Public reporting suggests that President Biden’s DOJ directed the D.C. chief medical examiner to destroy the remains of the children without performing an autopsy, which the CME appears not to have done yet,” Moore said.
The Catholic Congressman asked Bondi, “General Bondi, will you commit to working with me and this committee to conduct a full and fair investigation into the deaths of these children to ensure justice is served for the D.C. Five?” Bondi said that the case remains under investigation but declined to provide further details.
Pro-life organizations have also called for accountability. A May 27 letter to U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro urged a criminal investigation into the suspected infanticide. Tom McClusky, CatholicVote’s Director of Government Affairs, stated, “What happened in D.C. was atrocious; a group of pro-lifers exposed the illegal activities of a D.C. abortion facility, and the D.C. government instead protected the criminals and attacked the pro-lifers.”
The Biden-era DOJ was criticized for prosecuting pro-life activists under the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act, sentencing some to lengthy prison terms, while failing to investigate the deaths of the D.C. Five.
