Sorry, Ma'am, But He Wasn't Using It Anyway. What? Too Soon?

A New York court says that the medical examiner didn't have to tell the deceased teen's family that he'd removed and kept the kid's brain during an autopsy and sent the body back to them sans cerebellum. They wouldn't have known except that two months later, the deceased's classmates went on a field trip -- this is not a joke, this actually happened -- and saw the kid's brain in a jar with his name on the label. But that raises the question of whether it matters to you that all the organs and stuff are intact when a loved one -- or you, for that matter -- show up at the funeral parlor. (Albany Times Union)
