FBI finds 40 human skulls at Kentucky man's home

A Kentucky man was arrested after law enforcement officials
found 40 human skulls and other body parts at his home
in Mt. Washington.

FBI officials made the discovery as a part of an investigation
into theft of body parts from the morgue at Harvard Medical
School.

39-year-old James Nott allegedly purchased the human remains
from a Pennsylvania man named Jeremey Pauley who had obtained
them from a woman who stole the parts from cadavers donated
to the school for medical research and education.

In addition to the 40 human skulls, FBI agents also found
human spinal cords, hip bones, and femurs at Nott's home.
Some of the skulls were allegedly decorated.

The FBI also claimed to have found a Harvard Medical School
bag, various guns, including an AK-47, inert grenades, and
body armor plates.

. . .

Um ... not sure if he really did anything ILLEGAL.

Yea, he's very WEIRD ... but that's not illegal
in and of itself. US citizens are allowed to
be weird.

"Decorating" skulls isn't inherently illegal either.
If he was Mexican they'd have NO biz complaining
about skulls.

Seems like he bought all those parts in a fairly
straight-up online biz deal. No reason he'd think
the sellers were doing anything illegal.

So why was the FBI involved and why is it going
to such lengths to demonize the weird guy ???
He didn't kill these people. He didn't pay to
have them killed. He was just online-shopping.
Very strange merch, but there's all kinds of
funky stuff for sale online.

BTW ... "inert grenades" means grenade shells that
CAN'T DO ANYTHING. "AK-47" - betcha it's more a
semi-auto "AKS" instead, perfectly legal. "Body armor
plates" ? Not much use without the rest of the outfit ...
just kevlar squares. Seems like they're trying MUCH too
hard to create a "threat". Interesting it comes when
their Director is being torn a new asshole by
congressional investigators ........

In short, SKIP the weird 'artistic' guy, concentrate
on the original perps who DID know they were doing
illegal stuff.
