29. A little more from the new article:

In return, the private research lab sent the county money -- lots more than the cost of processing the tissue, $1.49 million in all. That's $8,300 per brain.

Case No. 98-1218 is the most interesting.

We tracked the case to next of kin in Florida. The family says its Jewish traditions would never allow removal of a brain. It never gave consent of any kind.

Stanley received the brain via King County anyway, according to county records and the family. The family recently retained an attorney.
