    Perhaps as an anatomical specimen for study? There’s a market for that. It’s usually where someone ends up when they legitimately donate their body to ‘science’.

        Nah that’s Abby Normal. Says it right on the label.

      Legitimate uses of brains often aren’t relying on the black market though.

      I suspect that somebody sold it to an obscura collector, film production, or pervert.

      Do you know how someone goes about getting set up to donate their body to science? I want that done with my body, but have no idea how to get it set up and put in a will.

        Sorry, no, I am not a lawyer. But it should be pretty simple, like just putting a directive to that effect in a will, I guess.
