A Kentucky man allegedly sold stolen human skulls and other body parts over Facebook to customers around the country and slept with a head in his bed, the FBI says.
Mount Washington, Kentucky, resident James Nott, using a profile under the name “William Burke,” was allegedly advertising human skulls for sale as recently as June, federal court filings revealed this week.
The FBI learned of Nott, 40, through its investigation into an illicit ring of human body parts traders linked to the Harvard Medical School through its former morgue manager, Cedric Lodge, according to an affidavit filed in the Western District of Kentucky.
