Former Harvard Morgue Chief Pleads Guilty to Illegal Sale of Body Parts

The latest black market body parts scandal is here. Admittedly it's not the body parts use case I generally imagine when it comes to black market biological material: 

A former manager of the morgue at Harvard Medical School will plead guilty to stealing body parts that had been donated for research and selling them for thousands of dollars to people who collected them as macabre curiosities, according to court documents.

 

He “plead guilty to stealing body parts that had been donated for research and selling them for thousands of dollars to people who collected them as macabre curiosities, according to court documents.”
