"Unsettling Discovery: Human Skull Unearthed in Florida Thrift Store"
A rock and crystal store in North Fort Myers, Florida, drew attention after placing a human skull on display for Halloween with a price tag of $4,000. The owner, Beth Meyer, intended to use the skull as a conversation piece and did not actually want to sell it. However, it is a misdemeanor in Florida to knowingly buy or sell human remains. An anthropologist reported the skull to the authorities, stating that it appeared to belong to a Native American. The sheriff's office is investigating the matter, and the medical examiner's office is further examining the skull. Selling human remains is generally illegal, and it is against federal law to purchase or sell the remains of Native Americans.
