NY man gets 25-58 years for stolen body parts scam
By JERUSALEM POST STAFF
Three men who conspired to plunder corpses and sell the sometimes diseased body parts were sentenced to prison Wednesday for what victims said was a gruesome, greedy scheme that violated basic principles of trust and human decency.
In New Jersey, meanwhile, a federal judge ruled against some of the patients who sued after receiving some of the body parts, saying they had failed to establish grounds to sue.
The mastermind of the scheme, Michael Mastromarino, was sentenced to 25 to 58 years in prison. Brothers Louis and Gerald Garzone, who provided bodies from a pair of funeral homes and a crematorium they ran in Philadelphia, will serve eight to 20 years.
