In a shocking revelation, an individual has admitted to engaging in the sale of stolen human body parts originating from Harvard Medical School and an Arkansas mortuary. Jeremy Pauley, a resident of Thompson, Pennsylvania, is one of seven individuals implicated in the case since June. Recently, Pauley pleaded guilty to charges of conspiracy and interstate transportation of stolen property, as confirmed by the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania. He now awaits a potential prison sentence of up to 15 years, with the sentencing date yet to be determined. Pauley confessed to knowingly purchasing stolen human remains from multiple sources, as well as selling them to various buyers, including one buyer who was aware of their illicit origin. Cedric Lodge, another defendant, stands accused of unlawfully obtaining dissected parts of donated corpses from Harvard Medical School in Boston, Massachusetts. Lodge, who served as the morgue manager at the time, resides in Goffstown, New Hampshire. Authorities have determined that the body parts were unlawfully removed from the school without its knowledge or consent. Harvard Medical School has been collaborating fully with the ongoing investigation. It has been alleged that Lodge would occasionally bring these stolen remains, which included heads, brains, skin, and bones, to his own residence. Moreover, some remains were reportedly sent by mail to buyers, while others were chosen in person at the morgue.

Awaiting trial, Lodge's wife, Denise, also faces charges related to this incident. During their initial court appearance in June, the couple refrained from commenting on the accusations. Similarly, the remaining four individuals charged in this case are also awaiting trial. Prosecutors assert that these defendants were part of a nationwide network engaged in the illicit trade of stolen remains, sourced from Harvard Medical School and an Arkansas mortuary. Donations made to Harvard Medical School for educational, research, and teaching purposes typically result in the cremation of the bodies once they are no longer necessary. The ashes are then respectfully returned to the donor's family or interred in a cemetery.
