The Ocala Star-Banner, on when workaholism strikes neurological researchers:

Debra Warner said she did not allow any parts to be kept in the bedroom of her 12-year-old son from a previous marriage, but that he was exposed to them.

In one instance, she said, the boy was going fishing in a nearby creek. He got a bucket from under the kitchen sink to take with him, opened it and found a head. She said Warner named the head Fester. That is the name of a character in the television show and movies, ‘‘The Addams Family.’’

‘‘Most of the heads he kept in the lab, but right next to our bed he had a bunch of heads. I told him they really bothered me and he covered them with a blanket,’’ she said. ‘‘He had a lab set up in the house but he never used it. He would bring the body parts into the kitchen and start cutting them up because he said the lab was too crowded. I told him I couldn’t take it any more. I said ’I’m not cooking any more if you keep bringing body parts in the kitchen.’ So he set up an extra study and was cutting them up in there.’’

Damn. There was another case a little like this ages ago. An old German doctor, living in the US, had been kicked out of his job but decided to keep on operating on patients. Most of them he cut up on his dining room table. Anybody remember the specifics?

I read a TINY, TINY thing about this in one of the UK papers last night (it was basically a little "tombstone" paragraph to the effect that a neurologist was in shit for having a houseful of body parts...). It piqued my curiosity. Thanks for the link.

The disturbing part, as referenced in the abstract, is this bit right near the end:

Both Debra Warner and a former live-in girlfriend of Warner said he force-fed them drugs.

‘‘He used to wake me up in the morning by grabbing my cheeks and shoving a sedative down my throat. He started doing it months go. He said it was an anti-convulsant for my head injury,’’ Debra Warner said.
‘‘It made me sleepy. He would stuff it in my mouth, pour a cup of coffee down my throat and say, ’Here sweetie, now put on your lab coat and come to work with me.’ He wanted me to learn neurology. He made me go to the university with him one day and watch him dissect a cadaver.’’

The former girlfriend had filed a domestic violence complaint against Warner that was later dismissed.


Head injuries & force-fed drugs.


Here's the funny thing: I was talking to my friend Harry last night. He lives in Gainesville. He had some friends who just moved down the street from this doctor a couple weeks ago. They wanted to head out to the suburbs to get away from crime.

That's funny, see.
