# Dr. Lee Merritt / Organ Trafficking Clip - Full Interview Source Note

Prepared: 2026-06-21
Status: Research/source note only - not posted

## Likely full interview found

**Title:** Dr. Lee Merritt and Stacy Besch on child trafficking in Iowa  
**Platform/channel:** Rumble / The Medical Rebel  
**URL:** https://rumble.com/v5b42z1-dr.-lee-merritt-and-stacy-besch-on-child-trafficking-in-iowa.html  
**Duration:** 55:05 approx.  
**Upload date:** 2024-08-15

## Why this appears to be the source/context

The full interview contains Dr. Merritt discussing child trafficking, sex trafficking, Ukraine, body-parts trafficking, transplant law, blood draws, and transplant-related concerns. The key section begins around **08:20** and continues through roughly **11:30** in the local transcript.

The viral Wellness_Radar / DrLeeM632 clip from September 2025 appears to be a later edited short built from the same theme or a closely related cut. The exact 50-second viral wording ("The big money is body parts...") is not a perfect word-for-word match to the tiny-Whisper transcript of the Rumble interview, but the full interview has the same substantive claims and likely upstream context.

## Key excerpt from full interview transcript around 08:20-09:25

> "...one of the things I noticed was it kind of stopped short from telling you the end game when they do child trafficking... The end game when they're still in the system and they're no longer useful in sex trafficking, for example, is body parts trafficking... Part of [Ukraine] is because Ukraine is ... one of the world's head [hubs] of body parts trafficking. They've changed the laws to make it easier to do transplants. We've got pictures of them harvesting these young soldiers... this is how they make their money through body parts. It's the number one money in the world."

## Publishing caution

Do not publish the viral clip as fact. If used, present it as Dr. Merritt's claim, then separately verify/document organ-trafficking facts through Declaration of Istanbul, UNODC, UNOS/OPTN, U.S. law, and credible case reporting. Her Ukraine-specific and food-supply claims require much stronger independent evidence before being stated as fact.
