Anyone happen across the Stratfor email with the heads in a cooler?
I was working on another dig tied to the body parts trade, when I came across this article. It details the prosecution of a couple from detroit, Arthur and Elizabeth Rathburn. They ran a company, International Biological Inc. (IBI) that allegedly rented body parts to various entities. The CDC was involved (my focus point) because allegedly some of these parts had sepsis.
Anyway, I read this part and it reminded me A LOT of the pics I saw in that email. These indictments unsealed in February 2016.
Camping Cooler? Extra Blood?
What if they were just patsies?
FYI any head used for research or educational purposes should have a very smooth, clean cut.
"The indictment further alleges that Arthur Rathburn willfully caused to be delivered hazardous material regulated by the Department of Transportation, namely a human head of an individual known to have died from bacterial sepsis and aspiration pneumonia, to Delta Cargo, an air carrier, for transportation in air commerce in violation of federal regulations. In violation of these regulations, the human head was packaged in a trash bag placed within a camping cooler. Seven other human heads were also part of the shipment and packed in the same manner. Large quantities of liquid blood were found within the coolers. Furthermore, Arthur Rathburn was charged with making three false statements connected to this shipment."
