Federal charges were filed against an Illinois man and his son for allegedly selling body parts on the black market from people who thought they were donating to science.

Federal prosecutors say researchers paid to use cadavers without knowing they had tested positive for infectious diseases. The pair reportedly kept bodies known to have HIV, sepsis and hepatitis on ice and then selling them, some for up to $100,000.

Donald Greene Sr. is charged with wire fraud. His son, Donald Greene II, is charged with knowing about the scheme but failing to report it. They were associated with Biological Resource Center of Rosemont, Illinois, which provided the remains to medical professionals for a fee.

A search warrant revealed that one mother was told her son’s tissues would be donated to colleges and research centers but instead, parts of his body sold for $5,000.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say these two are a couple of knuckle heads

And even after they get out, the law better keep an eye on them. They are ear marked to get caught again, hands down, by the long arm of the law.

Illinois is the Florida of the criminal world?

If they wouldn’t have charged an arm and a leg they might have gotten away with it.
