The woman, Esmeralda Cedillo, said the warehouse has been unused for the past seven years. She allegedly discovered the medical records when her dog entered the warehouse property and dragged some of the files outside, according to the report.

The records were left in the warehouse by an estranged relative who worked at an abortion clinic, Ms. Cedillo said in the report.

Ms. Cedillo is now figuring out what to do with the records, according to the report.
