    I have a problem when people call a child in the womb a “fetus”.

    Now I know this a scientific term so people will probably say I am an uneducated fanatic.

    Uneducated? No! A fanatic? For Christ? Yes!

    Let me ask you a question. When you say it is a fetus are you implying that it is something less than a human being?

    Those who take a “pro-abortion” position (I won’t dignify them by calling them “pro-choice”) have a problem calling the unborn a “chid” or a “baby” (they don’t want to kill a baby) so they are forced to use the word “fetus”.

    When Mary, the virgin mother of our Lord, was pregnant, she went into the hill country to visit her cousin Elizabeth who was also pregnant with John the Baptist. When she greeted her Elizabeth said:

    “Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb. And whence is this that the mother of my Lord should come to me? For, lo, as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in mine ears, the BABE leaped in my womb for joy.” (Luke 1:42-44)

    Here the unborn is called a “babe” (baby) by Elizabeth who was “filled with the Holy Ghost” according to verse 41. This unborn baby was aware of his surroundings – aware of the presence of the blessed virgin – and the significance of the words she spoke! Not only that but he responded appropriately! God be praised!

    This is the inspired Word of God.

    The response to this news item shows it has touched many hearts. Unfortunately, such things also happen in my own country (Canada). It is part of the human condition.

    Dominica has a culture of life. You have many loving and caring people in your country who know the value of unborn human beings who already bear the image of God.

    The public at this time does not know the circumstances of either the conception or the death of this little one. Nobody has a right to say the mother “killed” her unborn child because at this point in time we simply do not know what happened.

    We know she did wrong to leave the fetus there and I admit this does suggest the worst. But unless you have been in those circumstances you cannot know the emotional dynamics that can cause a person to do almost anything at such a time. Try to understand the feelings of loneliness, guilt, and fear that can grip a woman who is already suffering from poverty. Was this her case? We don’t know.

    I am a pro-life evangelical Christian who has written (and had published) articles against abortion. I have picketed outside abortion “clinics” in both Canada and the USA. But I believe – wrong though abortion is – the woman is often also a victim.

    If the woman is found I can only pray and hope the authorities will be kind and show mercy; that they will be redemptive; that whatever medical care and counseling is needed will be provided.

    If the woman is reading this I want you to know that truly GOOD people are not against you. Your priority should be to talk to a doctor somewhere (maybe at a hospital) because you may need medical attention. After this I encourage you to report to the police. They have a responsibility and they will appreciate your helping to set the record straight. Please go to them before they come to you. This WILL make a difference.

    Killing a baby is wrong but its a shame that if she had done it by a doctor no one will saying all those things. How hypocritical, one can kill a child and it is ok as long as a doctor is doing it. Think about it. Murder is murder!!!! And I am sure at least one person who commented already committed abortion you should think of yourself the same way you think of this person who did this.

    If its a teenager who did this i dont blame her.i blame the parents.parents need to spend more time with their kids and communicate with them so they know whats going on in their kids lives.I urge this young lady to go to the hospital and give herself up because she may need medical care.And ppl plz stop condeming her you dont know the full story of why this happened.my God im sure she is scared and need medical attention my heart goes out to her.The young lady will be revealed for sure, things dont stay hidden for long in Dominica,and when we know who the young lady is,i think we should lend a helping hand and not crucify her.

      to add to your statement; Pearlita; This could also be a young lady who was scared to seek help,maybe it is a rape victim,or someone threaten her not to call their name.all this said,does not justify the act,but the father could be one of you men who like to give Top Up for set up and did not cover up.now a young lady’s life goes down the gutters,and she may not be fron guttar.
      Say a pray for mother and child,that’s what GOD would asked of you all.They are victims too.

    July 10, 2013

    i’m flabbergasted that so many people think that she killed the fetus.

    there are many reasons that something like this could have happened.

    I’m just appalled that the fetus was found where it was found.

    No matter what – no one should treat their flesh and blood this way – it was a part of her so at the end of the day, it deseved some form of dignified treatment.
    but then again that depends on the way we look at the fetus.

      Excuse me ,what if the foetus was forcibly removed by an attacker of its mother. Or the mother was murdered and the baby was removed. Don’t start speculating about things. You weren’t there when it occured and if you were the number is above 1-800-HINT call them and put this “unfit mother” in jail.

      I hope you read this. You could probably tell us why at age 27 you are not able to conceive. Most women can conceive with no problem.
      There are some reasons why people are not able to conceive. One of it is using internal, various contraceptives.
      Then there are some married couples who wait to have children. They work, save money to also purchase a house, amassing wealth and material possession. A few years go by as they get ready to have a baby and planning it. In the interim they utilize contraceptives. When they are good and ready to have the baby and for the woman to conceive, she is not able to conceive. I view this as a punishment. They chose wealth and material possession over having a baby or more. This is the type of world we live in today.
      Dominica has Planned Parenthood. This is an organization whose origin is in the US. They assist women with contraceptives (probably men too) and to curtail having babies to the point of abortion. It is a pro-choice organization; not a Christian one. Figure it out.
      People will lambast the woman for what she did. I am not stating that what she did was correct. They, themselves, use certain means to avoid conceiving. This too is the work of the devil.
      If you cannot conceive, you can adopt. There are many children who need someone to love them and to give them a good home. You will be doing a child or two a godly favor. As the saying, “We cannot turn back the hands of time but we can wind it up again.”

    Our problem in Dominica is that we are too judgemental. From the comments yesterday one would have sworn this was a full term baby who one had simply abandoned. Reading the full story I can understand the panic and fear of giving birth to a fetus which can not survive. The person is probably still going through the trauma of the situation. Give them time to come out and explain. It could be a teenager who was not aware or still in denial that she could have been pregnant. We just don’t know and when we don’t know we need to shut up!

    All these people who’ve condemned the individual to hell where do you stand with God. Are this individual’s sins greater than yours. Judge not!

    I pray for peace for this person, and help and support so that an incident like this will not happen again.

      As a mother I am mortified to hear of a fetus in any place other than the arms of its mother or safety zone. Children do require alot of understanding, care and knowledge to raise them. However, to the young lady who ever you are please find peace. Seek counseling. You alone know the circumstances you were faced with. I know in the present society everyone tends to judge another until its at their doorstep (it is human nature to do so). However, you have to see past this and try and understand for yourself what has happened and how you can overcome it. In the darkest hours God is by our side always.We just have to call his name (a mantra I believe in), even if I have to go through the trial of life… I know he is there. So too he is there with you. Just call on him he will come to you.

      Find a person of authority by yourself and quietly (no crowd with you) and get the help you deserve.

    Judge not lest you may be judged!!! Before condemning the mother of this fetus please do realize the possibility that this could have occurred by natural causes. A miscarriage!!!! A woman all alone losing the baby she felt growing inside her for the last four or five months, ashamed, scared and in too much pain to do anything but lay there as the horror unfolds before her very eyes. Don’t judge her…pray for her!!!!

    Anyone remembers the CHS student from the River Street area who delivered a healthy, full term baby boy, proceeded to strangle the baby and place him in latrine? Then hop right on up to CHS as if it was nothing was wrong. This was all over DBS a few years ago. She was arrested the same day, I’m unsure what happened with the case.

    20 weeks. Seems like a miscarry to me. Seems like someone who was confused and scared too. Possibly a young child carrying a baby and scared of what parents and the public would think. Dominica is like that, very judgemental. I hope the mother is safe and her life is not at risk. We could lose two lives instead of one here, if she had complications, which is very likely. Considering this is a 20 week old baby. I hope she get medical attention because I am sure she needs it.

    On the flip side, if the person is an adult or a child getting help from an adult, then that is just wrong.

    plus the mother could be dead and missing too,did anyone think about that?

    This story is very sad,and my heart goes out the mother.

    I have read the majority of comments and I cannot believe that some people do not understand that a fetus/foetus was found and NOT a new born baby. A fetus/foetus is a developed embryo (in the womb or egg).

    All we know the mother could have had a miscarriage, and being scared, panicky, left the fetus/foetus there. She needs medical help.

    “The fetus was transported to the Princess Margaret Hospital where it was examined by a medical practitioner who confirmed that it was male and consistent with a 20 weeks old fetus, according to police PRO, Inspector John Carbon” –News Article

    Please read my comment below this quote:

    • July 10, 2013

      I am not in here, to defend that mother of that “Fetus” or developing child of the womb–and that’s what it is at weeks old in the mother’s womb! A Fetus!

      This means that the human body was still in formation–not yet completely formed in the womb. We read that doctors had to carefully examine it, so to determine the gender of that fetus.

      But as I skimmed through those post below, it makes me wonder if those who commented really understand that situation or the details of that of the News Article; or is it because their minds are very young and speaking their thoughts without wisdom and understanding.

      First of all it is said that the “fetus” was in consistence, or matched with one, who would be 20 weeks old.

      This would mean that he (the Fetus) was in his mother’s womb for about 20 weeks–in other words she would have been 4 months pregnant–when whatever it was happened.

      Some people have commented as if they believe the “Fetus” was a 20 weeks old baby, after its normal birth–but that is not so. People around that mother would have noticed her and her baby–who would be 4 months or 20 weeks old–even if those people were few in number.

      No one knows what happened–the reason the fetus was found in its condition. But what happened could be only one of two things:

      (1) That mother went into labor pains which would be a sign of miscarriage, since she was only 4 months pregnant. It could probably be that she was alone and did not even know what was happening to her, and did not think of calling for help.

      And so the result could have been a miscarriage. Still the question remains answered, which is: Why would she hide that happening from her friends and family? We do not know!

      (2) The mother might have decided to abbot her unborn child–it could have been that she only realized that she was pregnant when she was already 4 months–perhaps she was not in the position to have a child.

      But could she perform that act abortion on her own? And if she did not do it on her own, someone or some people would have assisted her.

      But a woman cannot simply force out a baby, that is growing in her womb, before its time. The normal time is at 9 months or some babies are ready to enter this world after 7 months in their mothers womb.

      Whatever happened with that fetus and his mother, only God knows and most certainly, the mother herself. I just wish she would come out and tell us her story–if she would like to continue her days in this world with a clear conscience. In Jesus Christ, there is forgiveness.

      • July 10, 2013

        Yes indeed, Jesus came to die, that through His death on the cross, we will have forgiveness and to be able to stand before our Holy God, with the “freedom” of our mind.

        Just before He bowed His Head so to give up the Spirit in Him, Jesus said “It is finished” This means that He had offered the Sacrifie which our God of Holiness would accept in place of our attonement for sins–once and for all John 19: 30

        Jesus would take the sins of His people to the grave, to leave them there, as He would rise again on the third day of His physical death.

        Yes, by the “Spiritual” Blood of Jesus Christ, which is the “Great Essence known as Love”, our sins are washed away by our faith in what He did for our sake, our record of sinfulness is wiped away from the Book of Life of God Almighty.

        If only we would understand that, and to do our best to seek Life in Jesus Christ, and to live that “Life” without sin, remaining in God’s Stronghold by sincere faith–forevermore.

        Yes! Faith, Trust, Humility, and Obedience is what we need. Holy Spirit who connects to us from conscience, He does the guiding, the protecting, the training, the disciplining or teaching–all that we need to grow and prosper in the Life of Love, which is of God, for God is Love, in Spirit, Truth, and Righteousness.

        He makes Himself the Living God of Life, this Life is Love in His Person, the Son, who is Jesus Christ. Yes! If only we would learn to thrive in Love.

    u people are so naive, the gestation period for a human being is 38-40 weeks, the story clearly states that the fetus was only 20 weeks in maturity. this is a cry for help, clearly a miscarriage. the baby was delivered way too early. it’s for reasons like this young women do things like this because dominicans are so quick o judge and condemn people without looking at the facts! judgement will fall on all of us not just the person in this situation. smh

    • July 10, 2013

      “The police are investigating the circumstances surrounding the discovery of a fetus in a concrete drain”. “The fetus was transported to the Princess Margaret Hospital where it was examined by a medical practitioner who confirmed that it was male, and consistent with a 20 weeks old fetus”.

      Why are people naive about that statement? We know the gestation period for a human being is 38 – 40 weeks, and the story clearly states that the fetus was only 20 weeks in maturity. This is NOT a cry for help. This was NOT a miscarriage. The baby was NOT delivered too early. I do not think that baby was delivered at all. Of course, people on a whole are quick to judge, but what are the facts, in your opinion? All people know is that A FETUS WAS FOUND IN A CONCRETE DRAIN. No, no one knows the reason in this situation.

      It is impossible to be 20 weeks pregnant and not know it; however, it is possible to get into early labor and not in a position to contact anyone for assistance immediately, but to deliver a fetus in a drain and walk away, is beyond comprehension. GO FIGURE.

      If this was clearly a genuine miscarriage, how did it find its way in the river. When things like this happen, a person would find their way to the nearest hospital. How comes no one is reporting that a person who was pregnant is no longer pregnant etc etc etc. This was a malicious and cruel act to a baby. While many are trying to have a single baby, others are willfully killing them.

    wait a minute… she could have had a miscarriage or gone into very early labor… if it was a young girl maybe she didn’t know what to do.. it is possible she didn’t even know she was pregnant. if she didn’t have the means to keep herself healthy during a pregnancy the baby could have died inside her and she could have gone into labor… We do not know her story… don’t call this murder.

    This fetus is only 20 weeks. It would not be able to survive. It would have to be at least 24 weeks and have special incubation equipment to survive. DA doesn’t have that. Don’t know if it was aborted by some means or miscarried.

    • July 10, 2013

      Agreed, a 20 weeks fetus may not have survived without adequate incubation. Dominica may not have that type of sophisticated equipment, but dead or alive the mother left the fetus in the drain. This lives people to wonder, do you not agree?

    I cannot cast judgement. I have no words this is too sad. Murder of the innocent, helpless, seriously? We do so much to save a sick child and this one is dead? Why, why? Is it the shame of being unwed, insecurity, too poor? Someone would have been able to care for the child. A precious life lost. Lord have mercy, please cast away evil and sin from us. Please teach us and educate us to be responsible for our actions.

    You are adults. The same ones who use contraceptives will condemn this woman. God knows what other sins they commit.
    It is sad that she had to resort to this. None of you know the reason why she did this.
    She could have informed someone in the medical profession about her dilemma and received help to cope.
    Think! She was pregnant. She may have been raped; forced to give in to a man’s desperate sexual urge and passion. She probably did not want her family and friends to know about her situation. She may have told the man about her pregnancy and he may have instructed her or forced her to get rid of the baby and even denied that the baby is his. She tried to hide her shame of being pregnant. There are many reasons why she committed this act. It is not as if you are not aware of those reasons, if only you would put on your thinking cap but that you blocked your mind.
    I hope for her own peace of mind that she turns herself in to the police. She may need emotional and financial help. There will be some people as also her lawyer who will provide whatever support she is in need of.
    Last but not least, think of Our Lord Jesus Christ who said to the Sinner of Magdala, “Go and sin no more.” And to the men, married do all who wanted to stone her, “Let he who is without sin caste the first stone.”

      How do you compare using contraceptives to someone putting a 20 week old baby in a gutter? Can you shut the hell up for once? Look at all the scenarios you run through from rape to not wanting her family to know. You are OUT OF TOUCH WITH REALITY! So damn annoying.

      • Justice and Truth
        July 13, 2013

        You did not comprehend what I stated. Read and digest the writing. I did not compare what she did to using contraceptives. However, using contraceptives is preventing a baby from being born. It is disappointing that contraceptives are accepted as being normal. However, it is suppressing life. You can use it daily and no one knows. Some of you are too two-faced and one-sided.
        Do you think that God, who is the Giver of Life will exult those who use contraceptives? Those who devised contraceptives and sell it will have a dear price to pay before God.
        Human beings think they own the world; that God does not exist and they can do what they want on this earth with the intelligence and body God gave them. He is watching and taking note from above. They will find out one day when they stand before God. Figure it out and be fair. Give God his dues.

    We are so quick to cast judgment on people whenever something happens. This is truly a heinous offense and the person responsible must be punished. But take heed people – many of our young people are suffering in secret. They have no-one to defend them against those big-men in society who abuse them and then leave them to suffer the consequences. Many do not know what to do in those circumstances and its only when they react they are noticed. So instead of casting judgement on a village or someone you do not know, seek out and help protect our young girls from those “rats” in our society.

I am seeing alot of comments saying do not judge, I am not judging but again, why throw it in the gutter like a piece of trash? The person could have gone to casualty, call a friend. If she became ill and as such the child early, who would judge her, is not her fault the child died!! Look at the big picture, the fetus was found in a drain. Nobody is claiming!! Let us pray for this country and our world, if this is what we are coming to, just throwing children away like trash!!!

Only the good Lord knows what was going on in that woman’s head. A lot of times when women (especially the younger ones) do things like that it’s because they are afraid of what their parents might do or say when they(parents) find out they are pregnant and or the man who got them pregnant says that he does not want the baby.

    Allah says in the Holy Qur’an: 17.31 Do not kill your children for fear of poverty; it is We Who provide for them as well as for you. Killing them is surely a grave sin.

    Allah says about the infant in chapter 81:8-9 – “And when the female infant buried alive is asked For what sin she was killed?”

    Don’t worry “mommy” if this fetus is killed by your actions on the day of judgement it will question you. Your limbs will testify against you on the day of judgement.

    May Allah forgive you “mommy” for this great sin you have done today. There is life and you can still turn to repentance to Allah. Fear Allah woman and seek forgiveness before you reach Him on judgement day.

    This is a lesson for all young men and women; do not kill your offspring, raise them with patience, love and devotion. Even if “times are hard” Allah will provide for this child in ways you lest expect it. May Allah guide our people for many have lost their way. Ameen.

On the other hand poverty and other dire social issues can lead to some drastic decisions. However life should be respected and to carry this being to the point of delivering it and then not even disposing of it in a humane manner is so heart wrenching. Every mommy knows the incredible feeling of that first kick or seeing that tiny being that was created inside her. Words cannot describe the emotions she feels.

    It is a horrid incident that has occurred and I do not condone such action but this is not the first nor the last time these types of crimes happen.We speak out now that there was physical evidence of someone destroying an unborn child.What about when the doctors do it all the time and make thousands of dollars out of it?
    While we can say; despite the situation that doesn’t give the woman a right to throw the fetus into the gutter, she is not all to blame.
    There are many factors that could contribute to this action, for example:the woman could have delivered prematurely,saw this lifeless fetus,got afraid and didnt know what to do and out of fear threw it out. or she could have been threatened or beaten causing an abortion and her accuser took the action to get rid of the lifeless fetus.the fetus looked like a five months pregnancy,its eyes and nose were not fully developed as yet so its possible that who ever did this got scared and reacted in this manner.However,if she is not careful she can get serious infection from retained products of conception and she will have to be hospitalized so she could be found out at one point.It is not fair when an innocent life is destroyed this way.

    I am missing something to the story? Seems like alot of people are jumping to conclusions. The story did not state cuase of death. Perhaps this child was stillborn, perhaps the mother never even knew she was pregnant, this is known to happen. Before we judge shouldn’t we be awaiting more details…and those without sin may then cast the first stone….

    I don’t care how young or scared you are, or how much problems you are having. This crime deserves punishment because you cannot just take an innocent life and expect no judgement in return. You could have given the child to someone or to the government and let them give him/her to a deserving family. Some couples go through so much to have a baby and see what those that can get pregnant do with them. I am so upset right now.

      First reasonable comment I have seen here. If it was a fully developed baby I don’t mind. But a 20 week fetus.

      I see 2 possibilities: 1. Abortion. They did whatever they did and did not know what to do with the baby.

      2. Miscarriage: Again, didn’t know what to do.

    There is no justification for carrying a baby and then killing it and discarding as recklessly as you would dispose of trash. Most people treat even used condoms and sanitary napkins with more respect than that. So how can an innocent human life be treated with less care? No matter how depressed the mother was, or what circumstances the child was conceived under, that is just wrong. Ladies be wise and make the guys condomize. And men if you know you want to economize, then condomize. If you go and do the message hold the change, or if you feel you get to much change, give the change to someone who needs it more than you do. Its unjustifiable what that “mother” did

      Some of you do not think. It appears you do not know the difference of right from wrong and all what contributes to sin and murder.
      Always keep in mind that everyone is not one and the same in many respects.
      Strange that you got those thumbs up. It shows the mentality of those who gave it to you. It is noted that there are few godly people in the world. This projects it very well.
      You are crying murder which it is. In your ignorance, you are not aware that it is murder to prevent a baby from being born. Using contraceptives is this intent. It is one way of preventing birth and it is a sin.
      The earthly law upholds using contraceptives which prevent babies from being born. This same law will arrest, charge and imprison women who did that.
      I am not condoning that this correct. I am proving a point to you that preventing babies from being born is the same as murder. It is, in the eyes of God a grievous sin. Some want to have fun, as much as they could have, wherever they can get it, at any time and with whoever without the responsibility of bringing forth a child.
      Contraceptives deny babies/children the right to life and to become adults. It is also the murder of future doctors, engineers, teachers, parents, etc.
      When Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta was asked why they have not yet found a cure for cancer, she replied in her wise and inspiring words: “Because they aborted the scientist.” Abortion, murder and using contraceptives fall under the category of suppression of life and murder.
      If you lack this enlightenment, as I always say, it will be revealed to you someday and you will pay the price to God for this. Those who devise them, use them, encourage it and applaud it will also pay a dear price. This is why there is a lot of dilemma of every nature, personal and otherwise in the land. Give this a thought.

      I don’t want to just give a thumbs up for this I have to say you are sooooooooooooooo right. some people like me wish they had children and people who do not know what to do with children are having them. What a pity! That is why sex out of marriage should be avoided and the age of consent ought to be raised. Obviously, this child was not conceived in a happy, committed union or the birth mother was too young or something. But when you tell some people certain things they behave as though you old fashion. Well somebody have to live with this for the rest of her life and it not me- I too old fashion :-D

      Can’t judge. Maybe she was raped, incest, abused by a parent. It is not good what she did only she knows why. She needs help.

    The name suits that Village just fine. I’m not a Skeritt fan, but no one can blame that on the Government. Dominica is like unto sour/turned milk and Vomit. Char…..

      So everytime the name Gutter Village come up, some fool have to make such comment? Just bcuz its in Gutter??? What about the other places we hear about that have mother killing babies…throwing babies…gang banging…brother killing brother…armed robbery n much more? Ya’ll say nothing… Why when its Gutter, the place have to be singled out? How often do u hear Gutter come up as it relates to crime n violence? You small ignorant minded people. Get ur heads out of ur butt and pray for our people! Smdh!

        July 9, 2013

        Maybe in these modern times we should now look at changing the name of the place. I have to agree with you the place gets singled out for negative comments and stereotypes every time it is mentioned. I mean no disrespect to the people of gutter I actually sympathize. Community leaders and others in Gutter should rally the govt for a name change. It is time….maybe Patrick John town since he gave our poor people land there? What about Mamo city since she in15 years didn’t do anything to alleviate the situation? Edison James didn’t help neither now Skerrit. You see where am heading with this? That place has been a neglected community and a breeding ground for deviants in our society and no leader has helped improve the plight of the good people, the unfortunate people who live amongst the…..well I won’t call them that you can imagine a name for yourself. All am saying is the good people of that community deserve better STARTING WITH A NEW VILLAGE NAME……lets get the debate going admin release my comment stop holding them back.

      It can happen anywhere in the country so pointing fingers right now makes no sense. Wait until you get facts from authorities before casting judgements.

      have you ever been to gutter ? do you even know where it is? have you ever met or spoken to any of the promising young men and women of that community? SMH it seems to me that too many of allu missed allu vocation any my have been judges in a past life, that is why it sooo easy for allu to cast judgement on others even without knowing all the facts. while it is not my intention to put hand in fire for nobody it should be noted that that ravine coming out right st aroma and passes under the hospital and stockfarm and tarish pit before it reach gutter so that fetus could have traveled from any of those places before getting stuck on the piece of galvanize in gutter. let the police do their job and god will deal with the person

      have you ever been to gutter ? do you even know where it is ? have you ever met or spoken to any of the promising young men and women of that community ?SMH it seems to me that it have plenty of allu out there that missed allu vocation or maybe allu use to be a judge is a past lifetime that is why it so easy for allu to cast judgement on people sometimes without knowing all the facts. and while my aim is not to put hand in fire for nobody, i would just like for those of you who don’t kno to know that that ravine comes from st aroma and goes through goodwill past the hospital, stockfarm and tarish pit before it gets to gutter. so that fetus could have easily come from any of those places before getting stuck on that piece of galvanize it gutter so know that facts, let the police do their job and let god deal with the person and let all of us take the time to deal with our own skeletons before casting judgement
