A doctor has pleaded not guilty to stealing a hand from a New Jersey medical school cadaver and giving it to an exotic dancer, authorities said.
Ahmed Rashed, a 2005 graduate of the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey, was charged Monday after voluntarily returning from Los Angeles, where he is in a residency program, said his lawyer, Hassen Abdellah.
Rashed, 26, is free on $1,000 bail.
The dancer, Linda Kay, kept the hand in a jar of formaldehyde in her bedroom. Friends have said she called the hand "Freddy."
Police discovered the hand, along with six human skulls, at Kay's home in July, after being called there on a report that a roommate was suicidal. The roommate was not home, but Kay was.
Kay, 31, has pleaded not guilty to unlawful disposal of human remains. Her mother has said she believed the skulls were bought from a mail order catalog.
The left hand was taken in May or June 2002, according to an investigation by the school and South Plainfield police, said Middlesex County Assistant Prosecutor Judson Hamlin.
Medical school spokeswoman Anna Farneski said in a statement that the investigation is ongoing.
The charge against Rashed carries up to 10 years in prison.

I don't think so. Seems to me like you're just looking at the evidence after the fact. Ugh!

Seems like an odd thing for a Muslim to do (and that's saying something). I wonder if this is a Goth thing.

Stupid doctor. If he wants to win *her* hand he needs to put a ring on *her* finger...a big ring...and not give her a hand-me-down hand.

Yeah, sounds Goth to me, too. Hard to tell who the real sicko here is, I think. And the mother...nonchalant about 6 human skulls? Creepy.

Quite a bit of satanic worship going on among exotic dancers in the NJ/PA corridor.
Odd.

Obviously something was lost in the translation. This is why I stay away from doctors who don't appear to be native speakers of the English language.

It's a Satanist thing. Such an object is known among self-styled practitioners of "black magick" as a "Hand Of Glory."
It is a talisman and it has ritual significance as well.
