Man Caught Stealing Brain Parts

Igor from one of my favorite movies of all time, Young Frankenstein? Uh, no. Indiana will never be confused with Transylvania. And all indications are that the thief does not have a hump on his shoulder.

Pretty creepy crime, though, that Associated Press shared with us. An Indianapolis man has admitted to the theft of brain samples from a medical museum. And weird how he got caught, too. Apparently a guy in San Diego bought jars of brain tissue on eBay for $600. We don't know if there's a hell of a backstory there or not, but...

The guy alerts authorities about his purchase, since the theft had received some publicity. Police found a bloody fingerprint at the Indiana Medical History Museum, belonging to a David Charles, who received a four-year prison sentence, with three years suspended. And ordered to never watch Young Frankenstein again!    DB
