REAL-LIFE HORROR
FBI Raid Uncovers ‘Cooler Filled With Male Genitalia,’ ‘Frankenstein’ Head at Body Donation Company

FBI agents who raided a Phoenix body-donation business amid allegations of wrongdoing found a “cooler filled with male genitalia,” a Frankenstein-esque head, and a bucket full of limbs, according to court documents cited by the Arizona Republic. The now-defunct Biological Resource Center, which accepted bodies of deceased persons and promised free pickup and cremation of any parts not sold, is at the center of a lawsuit in which 33 plaintiffs say the company sold body parts of their loved ones for profit, obtained the remains through “false statements,” or mishandled the remains. In the recently-revealed lawsuit, one former FBI Agent said he “personally observed various unsettling scenes” during the raid of the facility, and noted seeing unidentifiable bodies stacked on top of each other. He also said he saw a “large torso with the head removed and replaced with a smaller head sewn together in a ‘Frankenstein’ manner.” The civil lawsuit is being brought against the business and its owner, Stephen Gore. The trial is currently set to begin Oct. 21.

5. "Arizona is a regulatory-free zone for the body-parts industry."

In October 2015, Gore tearfully pleaded guilty to conducting an illegal enterprise after accusations that he had provided vendors with contaminated human tissue and used body parts in ways that the donors had not permitted.

In a letter to Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Warren Granville before his December 2015 sentencing, Gore wrote that he felt overwhelmed, but that he was working in an industry with "no formal regulations" to reference for guidance.

"I could have been more open about the process of donation on the brochure we put in public view," Gore wrote. "When deciding which donors could be eligible to donate, I should have hired a medical director rather than relying on medical knowledge from books or the internet."

Research by plaintiffs' lawyers says Gore's highest level of education was high school, and that he did not have any licenses or certifications applicable to body donation program operations.
