The ghastly Harvard body parts trafficking scandal – in which the Harvard Medical School morgue chief was selling off human bones and organs on the black market – received a new, horrifying twist.

A police raid in Kentucky found a man using dozens of the trafficked skulls and spinal cords as house decoration and furniture.

Investigators found the former HMS morgue manager, 55-year-old Cedric Lodge, stole bones, organs, and other parts from corpses.

Lodge, who sold human body parts online with his wife, Denise Lodge, 63, was indicted last month with three other individuals.

His criminal activity lasted from 2018 until 2022. He seemed to have been part of an entire network for human body parts trafficking, with a morgue in Arkansas also involved.

In a new development of the case, the FBI has raided the home of 39-year-old James William Nott in Louisville, Kentucky, discovering 40 skulls, as well as spinal cords and hip bones.

These were literally “decorating” his apartment, The Daily Mail reports. Nott, who is accused of trading with human body parts, has become the eighth person to be arrested in the investigation of the grisly illegal business.

According to the police, he was part of the same underground organization selling stolen human hearts, skin, brains, and fetal remains as the Harvard morgue chief.

Nott used the skulls as decoration and the spinal cords and hip bones as furniture. The feds were shocked to discover one of the skulls was on the bed where the suspect slept, while another had a scarf around its neck.

The police accused the Kentucky resident of buying the human body parts from another suspect in the case, 41-year-old Jeremy Pauley. Pauley is charged with abusing a corpse, using proceeds from illegal activity, and taking stolen property.

According to his indictment in Pennsylvania, Pauley paid $40,049 for body parts to a man named Josh Taylor, who in turn bought them from Cedric Lodge.

Perhaps to make the entire case even more surreal than it already was, Nott said “only [his] dead friends” were in his apartment when asked if there was anybody else inside.

In his home, the investigators also found a Harvard medical bag as further evidence linking him to Lodge.

The Harvard Morgue Scandal will only likely get more terrifying as additional human body finds are getting discovered by the FBI.
