An Arkansas woman allegedly sold stolen body parts from medical school corpses to a man in Pennsylvania for $11,000. She pleaded not guilty to 12 counts.
pleaded not guilty to charges she sold stolen body parts from medical school corpses for $11,000 to a Pennsylvania man she met on social media.
She remains in jail as she awaits a hearing scheduled for Tuesday on whether she will be released on bail. Scott worked at Arkansas Central Mortuary Services, a funeral home, and part of her job included transporting, cremating and embalming remains. According to the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences in Little Rock, the funeral home is where the medical school sent remains of cadavers that had been donated for medical students to examine.
In the next nine months, Scott sold Pauley fetuses, brains, hearts, lungs, genitalia, large pieces of skin and other body parts, the indictment alleges. The indictment claims that, in one incident, Scott sold the remains of a fetus at a discount because"he's not in great shape." "I think that the facts ... underlying the indictment and in the indictment are uniquely egregious and objectionable and we believe there is going to be some significant public outcry as a result of this," Jegley said.
Pennsylvania officials learned of the transactions after they received complaints last year about Pauley.
