lyrics

When a plastic bag dropped off a medical waste truck and workers saw that it contained a human head and torso, they took photos and went on their way to an incinerator, where the entire load was burned.
Now, two counties are arguing over whether the corpse was "medical waste" or a "deceased human being." Investigators say they could be dealing with improper disposal of a body.
Medical wasted. Medical wasted.
The controversy began last month when a BFI medical waste truck picked up a load of waste from the Lee County Medical Examiner's Office.
The driver was headed to a company incinerator in Apopka, but stopped first in Lakeland. While there, a plastic bag on the truck came loose and dropped off the truck. It contained the head and torso of a man.
Medical Wasted. Medical Wasted.
BFI has a contract with International Institute for Advancement of Medicine, which uses body parts of the deceased for transplants and research. The IIAM, in turn, has an agreement for cadavers with the Lee County Medical Examiner's Office.
Sheriff's Office began investigating last month.
"I just don't accept that this is 'medical waste,' This was a human being, and he deserved better than what he got."
Medical Wasted. Medical Wasted.
