‘Plastic bodies’ may be banned
WASHINGTON - Protesters and critics of “Bodies … The Exhibition” at the Cincinnati Museum Center, and similar shows elsewhere, aren’t the only ones who think the preserved human remains on display there could be Chinese prisoners.
Some members of Congress think so, too.
Republican Rep. Todd Akin of Missouri has introduced a bill to prohibit the importation of plastinated human remains. He’s concerned that some of the Chinese people in the exhibit didn’t give permission for their bodies to be on display.
