The Case of the Amputated Leg, Part II

Remember the post I did a while back about the man who had kept his amputated left leg in a BBQ smoker, planning to have it cremated with the rest of him when he died? If so, then you'll also remember that he couldn't pay his bill, so the storage company sold the contents of his storage unit - smoker, leg, and all. The new owner of the smoker and leg, refused to return the leg, so the two men decided to take it to court - TVs Judge Greg Mathis, to be specific.

I had completely forgotten about the story until I ran across an update today. Not surprisingly, the judge awarded custody of the leg to the original owner - pardon the pun. But he also ordered reimbursement, in the amount of $5,000.00, to the man who had purchased the contents of the storage unit.

All in all, a rather macabre and disgusting case.
