Things that make you go.....euuw.

Henry Reid (former director of UCLA's cadaver program) and a business man, Ernest Nelson, have both been indicted in a Los Angeles court on charges that they conspired to sell human body parts for profit, making a million dollars in profit.

According to the district attorney's office, the body parts were allegedly sold by Reid to Nelson, who resold them to various pharmaceutical and research institutions. The thefts occured over a period of 5 years and Reid was able to use his status at UCLA to hide the thefts.
