That could be incredibly upsetting. Bad call on the part of the coroner, leaving the brain visible and clearly labeled. What the fuck.
Yeah, that's a pretty big screw-up.
I personally have zero qualms about my bits and pieces being permanently removed after my death for science/saving someone's life/apprehending the fucker who killed my ass... but I sure as shit wouldn't expect my family and friends to be comfortable with finding some bit of me clearly labeled and sitting on a shelf somewhere.
I imagine there was screaming involved. It trumps the field trip we took to the local county jail only to get walked past one of our former classmates.

Yeah. Not like I'm super ghetto background or anything, but NO SHIT THERE I WAS.
This is interesting. It makes me incredibly uncomfortable to think that someone kept that boy's brain, but in the same thought I can't very well come up with a good reason why the coroner shouldn't have. It's not like he was going to be using it.
Well, except on those lonely, late night shifts, when he remembers he hasn't had a date in years and even brainsex sounds appealing...

Like the article said, you have to keep it in the fluid for a while to firm it up.
