A shipment of up to 60 human heads and parts of heads, wrapped with duct tape and stuffed in plastic containers, has been seized at an Arkansas airport while cops determine whether the ghoulish cargo is involved in an illicit body parts trade.
Investigators said the heads appeared to be “medical specimens,” opening the door to whether authorities in Little Rock, Ark., had inadvertently stumbled upon an “underground market” for human body parts.
Pulaski County Coroner Garland Camper said 40 to 60 whole and partial heads were discovered June 9 by a Southwest Airlines employee who alerted the Transportation Security Administration and local police.
The coroner now has possession of the heads.
The heads, he said, were not refrigerated or placed on ice. Instead they were “packed in regular plastic containers, and wrapped with water-absorbent material and duct tape.” source
