LOL. Actually criminal justice departments at several universities do that (not from morgues, but donated bodies).
The most famed, and the first such facility, in the country is near here in Knoxville, TN. The “Body Farm,” a tract near the UT campus in Knoxville, has corpses scattered all over it, in various stages of decomposition, for scientific study.
The farm has been the subject of several novels, and I think the new TV series, “Bones,” is based on this facility.
You should google the Body Farm and read an old article from the “Knoxville News Sentinel” from the 1990s about a doped up crook who decided to break into the facility, not knowing what it was.
They found him the next day (he had broken into a shed on the property and was hiding under a desk inside), curled in a fetal position, rocking back and forth and muttering to himself. Can you IMAGINE what this guy thought when he got in there and saw decaying bodies in bodies of water, in the back of car trunks, laying in the open . . . This was one of the most hilarious articles I have ever read, was really well written by the reporter covering the story.
I bet that crook NEVER committed another breaking and entering after this experience!!!
Interesting about the Body Farm.
And the doper? LOL Hopefully Scared Straight.
Boy if that didnt clue him in to his future nothing will.
I have written on my advanced directive to send my carcuss up to the medical school. I think I will add or the Body Farm. : )
