Wow, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't accept money in exchange for human remains but, hypothetically, if I did you would have to pay me way more than $600 for 2 faces.

The people involved in this are horrible people, regardless of the price.

Hypothetically, what's your price per face? (never thought I'd be asking that)

Face it...these crooks needed brains. They still don't have one.

As far as side hustles go... this one is pretty unethical. Reminds me of the first case shown in Better Call Saul: where the children break into a morgue and decapitate someone.

In 2020, Maclean allegedly paid $600 for two desiccated faces she picked up at the school's morgue from Cedric Lodge. Months later, Taylor, who is from West Lawn, Pennsylvania, sent Denise Lodge "$200 with a memo that read, 'braiiiiiins,'" according to the complaint.
