The room smelled of death, with dried blood on the floor. An aged body with a medical bracelet lay on a stainless- steel operating table in the dirty, small space.
This was not a sterile hospital room, which is where a technician normally would remove donated body parts to be used in patients in need of dental implants, spinal surgeries and joint replacements.
But it was there, inside a back room of the Louis Garzone Funeral Home, on East Somerset Street near Ruth in Kensington, that a former employee of a now-closed New Jersey biomedical company said he chopped apart dozens of corpses for their spines, veins, tendons and bones.
