Try leaving the 'medics' out of this... (Score 1)

"...Many unscrupulous "dealers" will procure body parts from anyone willing to deal them -- e.g., undertakers, medics..." First of all, I did read the majority of TFA, and I did not see them mention cases involving ambulances or Paramedics. Having quite a few friends in EMS, and having worked in an ambulance myself as an EMT, I can attest to the fact that it would be impossible to snatch a body a pawn it off to a doctor for research. As an emergency medical provider, you are essentially taking custody of a patient, similar to how a police office can take some one into custody. In that position you are liable for the well being of that patient, and ensuring they are treated well and delivered to their destination, be that a hospital, nursing home, or 'other' facility. Along with that responsibility comes the appropriate paperwork and documentation that demonstrates you lived up to your end of the deal. To insinuate that the hard working people that pull you out of a car when you wrap it around a tree, drag you out from between the toilet and the bathtub when you have your heart attack, or get up out of bed at zero dark thirty to pick your grandmother up off the floor when she fell are hawking bodies for some extra dollars is insulting.
