A Pennsylvania man has been accused of obtaining stolen body parts, some of which belonged to children, and reselling them through a virtual store on Facebook. 

40-year-old Jeremy Lee Pauley lives in Enola, Pennsylvania. According to reports, Pauley is self-described as someone who collects “oddities.” He uses a Facebook page called “The Grand Wunderkammer” as a place to list human bones and other items for sales. Pauley is also a curator at the Memento Mori Museum where they “strive to provide learning experiences to enhance curiosity and interest in human anatomy, cultural differences in views of death, and shed light on interesting bits of history outside of normal education.”  

The authorities were tipped off by someone who thought that suspicious activities were taking place at Pauley’s residence.
