Several people stole and sold human remains, including brains and skin, from Harvard Medical School’s morgue, federal prosecutors say.

A grand jury has indicted Cedric Lodge, 55, the morgue manager, and his wife, in the criminal plot, which lasted from 2018 to earlier this year, according to the complaint.

The federal complaint was filed in Scranton, Pennsylvania, where one of the defendants lives.
