The Federal Bureau of Investigation suspected 54-year old Dave Murray, an employee of the Harris County Morgue, of being implicated in an organ trafficking network.
Investigating several reports of missing organs and body parts, dozens of agents raided his residence this morning, hoping to find evidence of his involvement in the crimes.
What they found on the site was a lot more disturbing than what they expected, as the FBI spokesman Andy Ramirez described the scene in an interview with WNTV-4.
“There were shelves everywhere, filled with hundreds of glass jars. Each of them contained a penis floating in formalin.”
According to Agent Ramirez, the accused rapidly confessed everything as soon as he was arrested.
“He explained in great detail, how he had been cutting off dead men’s genital organs and collecting them for more than ten years.”It took the FBI more than seven hours to gather all the organs and other pieces of evidence that were found on the site.
A total of 53 criminal charges have already been filed against Mr. Murray and hundreds more could be filed over the next few days.
An anonymous FBI source told WNTV-4 that the number of charges could reach over 3,000.
Dave Murray will remain in custody for the moment as a psychiatric evaluation has been ordered to determine if he’s fit to stand a trial.
If he is considered fit, he should appear in court in October for the beginning of the procedures.
