Dumped Fetuses Released for Burial By CLAIRE VITUCCI Associated Press Writer LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Aborted fetuses found dumped in a field have been given to anti-abortion groups for Christian burials, a move critics say violates the separation of church and state. San Bernardino County Coroner Brian McCormick released the remains of the 54 fetuses Friday over objections from American Civil Liberties Union of Southern California officials, who said they may take legal action. The religious groups named and provided a casket for each fetus. They planned weekend ceremonies at several churches and a service at a family planning clinic. Interment is planned at a Riverside cemetery, which donated three plots. The fetuses were found last year in cardboard boxes in a county field. Authorities traced the fetuses back to a Los Angeles abortion clinic, which has since been closed. A truck driver for the clinic served 71 days in jail for dumping the fetuses. Religious groups petitioned the coroner's office to release the fetuses for burial after the criminal investigation was completed. The ACLU had urged McCormick not to release the remains. ''It is more than just the appearance of the state sanctioning a particular religious belief,'' said associate director Elizabeth Schroeder. ''Under California law there is only one way to dispose of this material ... that would be by incineration.'' Schroeder said the coroner's office ignored a 1984 California Court of Appeals decision. The court ruled the Los Angeles County district attorney's office violated the separation of church and state when it proposed to bury 16,500 fetal remains with religious ceremonies.
