Luckily an institution full of people deemed dangerous criminals should have cameras in every corner, so we’ll be able to see who did this.

But seriously, why remove all the organs? What are you going to do with a brain? Is it time for more head transplants?

They probably got sold off to collectors, if I had to guess. They busted a guy at Harvard Medical School doing it earlier this year

Guiness World Records for the biggest collection of prisoner brains

[-] [email protected] 38 points 8 months ago

“In North Amerika the prisoners are filled with sand after execution, and their organs are sent to schools to feed the starving school children who are taught it’s okay to do crime so that they too will go to prison and have their organs harvested.”

If its true... I know that the brain can be used for medical science.

It could also be disposed of if the subject has been exposed or subjected to something that alters the brain leading to death, illness or medical injury. Eg the testing of medicine. Not saying thats what happened, just putting out a couple of explanations that would still need proof.

No organs, very shallow autopsy

Brain taste good blob-no-thoughts

Least awful: there were dangerous conditions they wanted to keep hidden. Could be lead, drugs, concussion, something the prison they wanted to not get out.

Most likely: medical research on brains

Most evil: someone ate it.

Could be any of the above, or more.

It's rare a pathologist would take a whole brain, but not out of the realm of possibility.

Within BrainNet Europe (BNE, www.brainnet-europe.org), a consortium of 19 European brain banks established by the European Commission, an Ethical Code of Conduct was installed . This Code covers the basic legal rules and bioethical principles involved in brain banking and is based on legislation and guidelines issued by international governmental and non-governmental key organizations, such as the Council of Europe (CoE), the European Commission, the United Nations, the World Medical Association and the World Health Organization and is mostly based on the Recommendation of the Committee of Ministers of the CoE to member states on research on biological materials of human origin (Council of Europe Committee of Ministers, Explanatory Report, 2005, http://conventions.coe.int/Treaty/EN/Reports/Html/195.htm; Recommendation, 2006, https://wcd.coe.int/ViewDoc.jsp?id=977859). In June 2008, all BNE II partners signed this Code of Conduct. This type of self-regulation is hoped in the long run to contribute to uniform and unambiguous European legislation guiding transparent brain banking and to guide new and professionalize existing brain banks.

I love me some voluntary self regulation of checks notes brain collection

they must be using their secret police stations hidden in plain sight on every american street corner to do it!

[-] [email protected] 33 points 8 months ago

This sort of thing should only be heard of in some sort of survival horror game lore item describing some fictional super experiment. It’s sickening that real life actual people have their humanity removed when they enter the thresher of the us criminal (in)justice system

[-] [email protected] 33 points 8 months ago

can't do an autopsy without any organs...

[-] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago

Cause of death: No organs

limmy-what

All of them...?

[-] [email protected] 12 points 8 months ago

Nah, they just left it on the body to decompose to the point of, "advanced skin slippage."

In USKKKA, they harvest the organs of prisoners and re-sell them on the black market.

Cant believe his organs just up and danced away

I’m sorry WHAT

[-] [email protected] 13 points 8 months ago

Passive voice doing a lot of work here. I'm pretty sure that somewhere in this article is a bit of information more newsworthy than that they managed to find his body.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 8 months ago

No it fucking isn't. So far they have the body. "Some guy finds prisoner's corpse" communicates rhe same information with the focus on the finder, not the corpse. This is actually a great time to use passive voice because what was found mattered more. Yes I agree it was most likely the prison that stole his organs, but we don't know that yet and "prison may have stolen organs" is an awful headline.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago

I guess I respectfully disagree. I think it is bad to not point out the someone is doiing this, even if I personally understand that without any additional information.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 8 months ago

You're just wrong. Although the obvious assumption is that someone did it, and you're almost certainly correct in that assumption, until you can point out who or why you don't know that for sure. The best way to communicate the case efficiently is to put up the facts. Then you ask the questions who and why in the article. People complain about passive voice too much here. Cops get the same treatment as others by passive voice because "13 dead, 6 injured in school shooting" is just as common as "man killed by cop." The phrasing on cops usually separated then more or makes the victim seem less sympathetic, which is the issue, but the passive voice alone is not the problem. In this case, they are not removing a single bit of blame, just presenting what is known as clearly and precisely as possible.

Lot of words for someone who didn't read the article lol

You can see the impacts of a bad headline in this thread

Who found the body? No one "found" it, it was transferred to a funeral director from the Alabama pathology service and the funeral director told the family the body was all fucked up.

Who removed the organs? The Alabama pathologist, because that's what they do in an autopsy.

What forgot to put back the organs? Probably the Alabama pathologist.

Where did the person die? Not in prison, at an 'outside hospital'.

Is it normal for a body to be decomposing, transferring it from a hospital morgue to a mortuary and then to a funeral director? Absolutely not and doing so would raise more questions.

If you wanted to steal organs you wouldn't take the whole lot, and you wouldn't take the people from a hospital.

What you would do with American prisoners is lots of medical experimentation, continues to occur.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

Read the article, talking in the abstract. For the specifics, they can't prove they forgot/stole the brain yet, and saying it with qualifiers sounds weak as hell.

Precision and efficiency seem not to be your strong suit. You could have just responded to my comment, much faster than copy paste the whole thing. Your argument is not strengthened by putting the whole thing.

Any source from a major news outlet? Just need more than Shitter as a source.

Thanks. Not familiar with that news outlet here in the UK. Found it now on The Guardian and CBS.
