ABC7's Dan Noyes: "Do you require death certificates?"
Dora Baldwin: "For cadavers coming in for medical research yes, we do."
ABC7's Dan Noyes: "How about for a commercial exhibit?"
Dora Baldwin: "Not for a commercial exhibit. That wouldn't be a requirement." Joel Paul, international trade law expert: "No, it makes absolutely no sense. You can take a product and you can modify a product in some way, it's still the same product. It doesn't change the fact that it's still a cadaver. It's a basic principal of Customs law." Joel Paul is an international trade expert from U.C. Hastings Law School, who questions Customs' handling of the case. He's especially concerned that Gerhard Perner and his associates listed the corpses as body teaching models on the Customs forms.
Joel Paul: "This is clearly a human being, it's a human body, it can't possibly be considered a model. So I think that there are serious questions here about fraud."
