That's f'dup. You can't make that up.

 

[Killerdrgn]

damn imagine you expect your shipment from somewhere and instead get a human head or something.

how can you mistake a corpse for a shipment of fish?
I've never seen a shipment of fish come in a box bigger than 24X24X24
corpse has to to be 5'+ weight 150+ lbs?
I have seen large sharks coming a plastic sealed tank clearly marked Live shark
I'm pretty sure that a corpse has to be clearly marked for health precautions

cant make this stuff up!

I agree with frogman. Fish boxes aren't big enough to contain a body no matter how many pieces you order. Makes you wonder who had the idea to open the box that obviously wasn't theirs lol.

Hey the article never said it was a whole body. It was just to be used for samples. They could have chopped him up already.

Highly unlikely.... even so it has to be clearly marked as a bio hazard

True! Hmmm maybe one of the shipping guys removed the tape? Dunno, maybe they (the LFS guys) didn't open it, maybe they caleld the cops and they opened it to discover the body. Or they thought the guys they got the fish shipment from put the bio hazard tape on it to make sure the shippers didn't open the container.

did some research the following would be a minimum requirment for shipping a corpse overseas to the US
1. death certificate
2. certification of embalming
3. certification that the person did not die of a communicable disease
4. persons ID, passport
5. police report if death was suspicious, paperwork authorizing the release of the body from police custody

the body has to be shipped in a body bag in a metal box or coffin clearly marked and copies of the paperwork or manifest attached


The more I thought about it, the more I research I did, the more I am led to believe that the story in BS

OY!

...so the fish were with the body???

at best, this is not well-written.
