Organs found on Santa Cruz street still shrouded in mystery

SANTA CRUZ — New details have emerged around organs found mysteriously discarded on Ocean Street last week, though several questions remained unanswered.

Santa Cruz resident Ar’Mani McCoy told the Sentinel that on the morning of Dec. 15, she was returning home from a dentist appointment via a stop at Ferrell’s. Along the way, she spotted smeared blood below a heart, lying on the sidewalk. Nearby was a crushed paper cup and a plastic grocery store bag filled with blood and what turned out to have a liver inside.

McCoy said her first response was that what she was seeing must be some kind of fake — surely not a real heart.

“So I turned around and walked past it again,” McCoy wrote in an email. “There was a homeless man laying under the bus stop seat so I kind of freaked out so I called my boyfriend and he told me to stay and call 911.”

Soon after, Santa Cruz police sent an officer out to investigate. After providing some details, McCoy was told she could go home.

“I went home and 5 minutes later, he called to get my statement and told me that it was indeed a real heart and liver but they didn’t know if it was human or animal,” McCoy wrote.

The remains were sent to the Santa Cruz County Sheriff-Coroner’s Office for assessment. Forensic pathologist Dr. Stephaney Fiore told police investigators that the organs had not come from a human.

RE: San Francisco is only a few miles up the coast. Whoever it was probably meant to leave their heart there.

This is probably a promotion to push the return of the series Criminal Minds (actually happening in 2023 but only streaming, darn it. Paget Brewster will return.) and the continuation of NCIS.

On NCIS Season 19 Episode 16, an airplane flies overhead, but no message appears.
Then the team members all receive the exact same message from Parker, saying that body parts are raining out of the sky!

Could have been handled by the Bones crew. They’re used to that kind of thing.

What? A plastic bag? I certainly hope they are allocating any and all resources needed to find out what careless criminal discarded a plastic bag. They should maybe look into that organ thing too.

It’s hard to even give organs away anymore at garage sales.

“Please don’t panic, it’s organic.” ... heard it in Santa Cruz in 1969.
