WILLIAMSPORT-A Massachusetts woman a judge once described as a key player in the interstate market for stolen human remains has pleaded guilty.

Katrina Maclean, 46, of Bradford, admitted Monday in U.S. Middle District Court she was among those who sold dissected remains stolen from the Harvard Medical School anatomical gifts program for teaching and research purposes.

In pleading guilty to a charge of interstate transportation of stolen goods, Maclean admitted between September 2018 through at least January 2022 she participated in a series of transactions with Cedric Lodge, former manager of the Harvard Medical School morgue.

When use of the cadavers is completed, they typically are cremated and either returned to the donor or buried in a cemetery maintained for that purpose.
