 Setting the Records Straight on  Citizen Asar Michael Sesugh's  Death The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission,  EFCC,  considered it imperative to clear the air on some recent incidents at its Makurdi Zonal Directorate,  Benue State.   Operatives of the Directorate arrested 26 suspected cyber fraudsters on April 28,  2026.  They were profiled and kept in custody for further investigations after obtaining a Remand Order at a Magistrate Court.  Shortly after their arrest,  specifically on May 4,  2026,  three of the suspects sought permission to use the lavatory at the Directorate's  Holding Facility and were permitted.   They cashed in on the opportunity,  broke the toilet's roof and escaped from detention.  Several efforts were made to re- arrest them to no avail.

Former Harvard morgue manager sentenced to 8 years for selling body parts

Cedric Lodge, 58, the former morgue manager at Harvard Medical School, was sentenced to eight years in prison for stealing and selling human body parts in a nationwide scheme. His wife, Denise Lodge, 65, received a sentence of 12 months and one day in prison for her role in the operation.

Prosecutors said Cedric Lodge took organs, brains, skin, and dissected heads from cadavers donated to Harvard between 2018 and March 2020 without the knowledge or consent of the donors, their families, or his employer. The couple transported the remains from the Boston morgue to their home in Goffstown, New Hampshire, before shipping them across state lines to buyers. Some of the remains reportedly sold for thousands of dollars, including payments labeled for specific body parts.

Harvard Medical School condemned Lodge’s actions as “abhorrent and inconsistent with the standards and values” expected by the institution and donor families. Postal inspectors also criticized the scheme, highlighting the danger of trafficking human remains through the mail and its impact on grieving families. Lodge’s defense acknowledged the severity of his crimes and the harm inflicted on both the deceased and their families. Several other individuals involved in related cases have pleaded guilty.
