Where do we go when we die?
No one really knows, but hopefully our physical body doesn't end up in a human chop shop. Some people donate their own body or a loved one's body to science in order to further medical research and knowledge.
The problem is, human cadavers are now a commodity business and non-transplant tissue donors thrive in an unregulated market with very few laws. Body parts are dissected and often sold against the donor's wishes for military experiments and other non-medical purposes. And sometimes, these parts are forgotten in freezers or left to rot in plastic containers.
Welcome to the body broker business.
