bone-stealing witch drama? old news
artist who makes zombie baby doll repaints buying human body parts from a doctor who worked at Harvard's cadaver lab, and who sometimes let her come in and examine the donated-to-science bodies to pick the bits she wanted? fresh, new, even more fucking bizarre and horrifying
EDIT: THE DOLLS ARE UNRELATED TO THE HUMAN BODY PARTS
ONLY ONE DOLL WAS EVER SOLD WITH A HUMAN BODY PART (A SKULL) THAT I HAVE HEARD OF
INTERESTING THAT PEOPLE'S MINDS IMMEDIATELY GO THERE, BUT I NEVER SAID THAT AND NONE OF THE ARTICLES INDICATE IT
#current events#like is this a fucking penny dreadful printed in 1850 or a real unfolding case in 2023?#(also am I going to hell for thinking#among other things#'god you're not making doll collectors look better?')#graverobbing#(also I've seen her dolls in stores in Salem. they're tacky as hell. not the point at all but still)

car corpse photos
i like being at the junkyard. it’s awkwardly sandwiched inbetween a strip club and a prison, and it’s my favorite open air graveyard. bf: would I be a graverobber in this analogy?

In 1990, Congress passed a law recognizing the unequal treatment of Native American remains and set up a process for tribes to request their return from museums and other institutions that had them. The law, known as the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act or NAGPRA, sought to address this human rights issue by giving Indigenous peoples a way to reclaim their dead.
But 33 years after the law’s passage, at least half of the remains of more than 210,000 Native Americans have yet to be returned. Tribes have struggled to reclaim them in part because of a lack of federal funding for repatriation and because institutions face little to no consequences for violating the law or dragging their feet.
This database allows you to search for information on the roughly 600 federally funded institutions that reported having such remains to the Department of the Interior. While the data is self-reported, it is a starting point for understanding the damage done by generations of Americans who stole, collected and displayed the remains and possessions of the continent’s Indigenous peoples — and the work done by tribes and institutions to repatriate those Native ancestors since.
Under the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act, when an institution establishes a connection between tribes and remains, it must publish a list of the tribes eligible to make a repatriation claim. The remains are then made available for return to the tribe(s). Once a tribal claim is made, physical transfer may occur. Many remains have been physically returned to tribes, but data on this is spotty because the law does not require institutions to report when these transfers occur.
Ten institutions hold about half of the reported Native Americans remains that have not been made available for return to tribes. The list includes some of the country’s most prestigious universities, as well as federal agencies whose development projects disturbed Native American burials, and state museums whose archeology and anthropology programs originated with the excavation of key Native American sites and mounds.

if movies were accurate:
Indiana Jones and the intro to archaeology class that 75% of the students are failing, because they didn't expect to have to write research papers with accurately cited sources in a field that they thought was just looking at dinosaur bones

About the baby repaints, I read the story, but it says nothing about baby-repaints?
Is there more news? Someone's out here, passing off baby bodies as dolls? Or are they black market selling to the I -want-corpses-in-my-house people?
No no no no
she was repainting baby DOLLS. plastic and porcelain dolls, normal ones
the only human body part she ever sold related to the dolls was apparently a skull included as an accessory with a killer clown doll? according to at least one article I read
(that's an aspect of secondhand oral/typed versions of the story that I'm noticing, both in talking to people IRL and in this ask. everyone wants to link the human remains stuff and the doll stuff, even though they mostly seem to be separate)
(in that respect, I'm just here like "oh gods how long before people start asking me if my dolls are made out of corpse parts, thanks to this bitch?")
#ask#anon#graverobbing#current events#child death mention#(no they are just normal antique dolls)#(and this awful woman's dolls were just normal tacky baby dolls)

Oh, wait until I tell you about all the bodysnatching that went on! There was a whole underground market for graverobbers to sell illegally obtained bodies to medical schools!

Europeans literally practiced cannibalism well into the 17th century, and they got the corpses from graverobbing.
i always hate how much emphasis white westerners put on the aztecs practicing human sacrifice as like, evidence of how "savage" and "wild" and "strange" they were, when it's been proven that the prehistoric ancestors of europeans were cannibals and many european societies practiced human sacrifice well into the last 1000 years esp scandinavians like you aren't actually disturbed by that you're just racist
#kinda wild to me that more people don’t know how trendy cannibalism was in europe#history#racism#cannibalism#graverobbing
