"Body Worlds" Corpses: Executed Chinese Prisoners?

Did you go to the "Body Worlds" exhibit at OMSI a few months ago? Check out this story:
"The doctor behind the "Body Worlds" exhibits that show cadavers in different poses says he has stopped using bodies from China for fear that some of them may be executed prisoners, ABC News reported on Friday.Dr. Gunther von Hagens told ABC's "20/20" that he had to destroy some bodies he had received from China because they had injuries that made him suspect they were execution victims."

Check out ABC's 20/20 investigation of "Secret Trade In Chinese Bodies". Read more about this story at townhall.com, and TVbarn.
