Man Stole Organ Tissues including Brain Samples from a Museum and Sold it online via eBay
A typical story line of a Hollywood horror movie depicts a man desperate for cash, breaks into a storage facility to steal organ tissues and brain samples of dead patients and later sold them online.
Now, what if it happens in real life?
According to USAtoday, authorities in the state of Indiana were tipped off by a San Diego man who became suspicious about six jars of brain tissue he purchased on eBay for $600. Indianapolis police detectives used that tip to trace the transactions and eventually tracked and spoke to the seller. Police said the ebay seller obtained the brain tissue from a 21-year-old man, who was later identified as David Charles.
