Anti-Wrinkle?

I don't read newspapers but i read online news...google news. Less paper, less hassle and cheaper.
3 R= recycle, REDUCE, reuse. Cool or not? Tech savvy also, hehe.

Something I read today:

Gang killed five people for their body fat


wasn't that crazy?

A GANG of killers who murdered to steal their victims' body fat have been arrested in Peru.

Police said the three people held in the jungle province of Huanuco confessed to five killings and said they could sell one litre of fat for £10,000 to the cosmetic industry.

The (body) fat would be sold at prices of US$15,000 dollars a liter," said Castro.
the suspects, two of whom were arrested carrying bottles of liquid fat, told police it was worth US$60,000 a gallon.

They cut off their victims' heads, arms and legs and removed organs.

They then suspended the torsos from hooks and warmed the flesh, so the fat dripped into jars below.

It is believed six members of the gang are still at large, including leader Hilario Cudena, 56, who Castillejos said had been killing people to extract human fat for more than 30 years.

Medical authorities said last night human fat is used in anti-wrinkle treatments - but is always extracted from the patient, usually from the stomach or buttocks.

There would be a risk of reaction that could lead to life threatening consequences if fat from someone else were used, said dermatology professor Dr Neil Sadick.
