Human Body Parts Used for Decorative Purposes | M.P. Pellicer

The plunder of bodies from Harvard Medical School's morgue earlier this year has led to the arrest of another person.


Within weeks of the arrest of Cedric Lodge in June, 2023, the one-time manager of the Harvard Medical School’s Anatomical Gift Program, a lengthy title for the morgue, police arrested James Nott.

FBI agents searched the home of 40-year-old Nott, located in Mount Washington, Kentucky where they found 40 human skulls, spinal cords, femurs and hip bones.

In an abundance of precaution, they asked him if anyone else was in the home. His response of, "only my dead friends," was quite unexpected.

The agents found a skull on Nott's bed, and another wrapped in a head scarf. Others were positioned as decorations around his home. They also found a Harvard Medical School bag.
