second arrest in UCLA cadaver-theft case.

gotta love my alma matter.

what i find interesting is that apparently stealing a corpse, or parts of a corpse, constitutes property theft. shouldn't there be a more, i don't know, specific charge for people who steal body parts?

I think you can call people who steal corpses or body parts "ghouls," but I don't know if you can technically be charged as such.
