Harvard Medical School is paying $53 million to families whose loved ones’ bodies were stolen and sold on the black market by former morgue manager Cedric Lodge, who received eight years in prison for trafficking body parts—including brains, skin, and even leather for books—before being caught. The settlement covers donations from 2018 to 2023, and includes a public apology, program reforms, and a new scholarship to honor body donors.
