This is scientific research?

The widow of a 98-year-old World War II veteran donated his body for scientific research. She handed the body to Las Vegas-based firm Med Ed Labs for research purposes. 

Well, the company sold the body to a company called Death Sciences for $10,000. Death Sciences runs the Oddities and Curiosities Expo, which happens to include an autopsy show that sells tickets for $500. 

The ticket buyers got to watch a retired professor of anatomy use a surgical knife to slice into the veteran's head, limbs and chest cavity, and remove his organs and brain. Plus, the audience was invited to prod his body during the three-hour procedure.
