‘You monetized his death’: Allie Beth Stuckey calls out YouTuber who turned aborted baby with Down syndrome into content

Popular YouTuber Jesse Ridgway, who goes by “McJuggerNuggets,” set the internet on fire last week when he used the abortion of his unborn child with Down syndrome to create content for his audience.

“My wife and I made the very difficult decision to terminate the pregnancy due to Trisomy 21,” Ridgway wrote in a post on X. “The choice was not made lightly.”

“She underwent the procedure earlier this week and is on the mend. Thankfully, everything went smoothly, but emotionally we are drained. Trisomy 21, also known as Down Syndrome, is caused by an extra chromosome. It is caused by an error in cell division, like a glitch. The odds of a baby having it is 1 in 1000,” he added.

The couple has been documenting their pregnancy journey on their YouTube channel, where they’ve been recording their reactions to test results.

“You not only monetized your baby’s little life, but then you monetized his death. And not just his death, but also his murder. And then you want people to feel sympathetic toward you,” BlazeTV host Allie Beth Stuckey comments.

“This is morally chilling that you are admitting and trying to euphemize euthanizing a baby,” she continues, pointing out that Ridgway is apparently not actually “without compassion for vulnerable entities.”

Earlier in May, Ridgway celebrated the sixth birthday of his dog, who was diagnosed with stage 4 kidney disease the year prior, explaining that she is in the “0.001% of superhero dogs that continue living with no kidneys.”

“So that life was worth sacrificing for. His dog was worth paying lots and lots of money for, doing everything you could to keep this dog alive. Even though your dog has special needs, will not live a very long time,” Stuckey says.

“That dog apparently was more worthy of life than their living child,” she adds.
