SANTA CRUZ — New details have emerged around organs found mysteriously discarded on Ocean Street last week, though several questions remained unanswered.
Santa Cruz resident Ar’Mani McCoy told the Sentinel that on the morning of Dec. 15, she was returning home from a dentist appointment via a stop at Ferrell’s. Along the way, she spotted smeared blood below a heart, lying on the sidewalk. Nearby was a crushed paper cup and a plastic grocery store bag filled with blood and what turned out to have a liver inside.
McCoy said her first response was that what she was seeing must be some kind of fake — surely not a real heart.
“So I turned around and walked past it again,” McCoy wrote in an email. “There was a homeless man laying under the bus stop seat so I kind of freaked out so I called my boyfriend and he told me to stay and call 911.”
Soon after, Santa Cruz police sent an officer out to investigate. After providing some details, McCoy was told she could go home.
“I went home and 5 minutes later, he called to get my statement and told me that it was indeed a real heart and liver but they didn’t know if it was human or animal,” McCoy wrote.
The remains were sent to the Santa Cruz County Sheriff-Coroner’s Office for assessment. Forensic pathologist Dr. Stephaney Fiore told police investigators that the organs had not come from a human.

From the title I expected some street musicians had left them there but the I then found out it meant to say “Human Organs”.
No mention of tulips, though.
me too, and you beat me to posting a picture like this.
I was just remembering Pizza and Pipes the other day, but now looking at the actual pictures.
I will not have pizza tomorrow.
and I certainly will not watch Cannibal Holocaust even though the director died today.
Santa Cruz breathes a collective sigh of relief as the find is determined to be Organic, if not Sustainable.
LOL
In other words, somebody robbed a butcher shop or the meat counter in a store. Look at that Butcher’s sign:
“I Only Have Thighs 4 You!”
Possible serial killer in training. They should consider this aspect.
I was expecting more jokes given FReepers’ proclivities to Hammond up at any opportunity...
Yup, the guy at the meat department. I order organ meats for the dogs. I’m sure all animal rights wackos think of him as a serial killer.
They’re waiting for the key opportunity.
San Francisco is only a few miles up the coast. Whoever it was probably meant to leave their heart there.
I never knew there was a Ferrell’s Donuts on Ocean.
As for this, lots of evil stuff in that area.
Lol
Christmas/New Years tamale season…hog innards.
A hear and liver, they say? To a beat cop, that isn’t the wurst it could be...
Guts from a butcher for the Mexicans living in Watsonville or Salinas. I was stationed near Santa Cruz and it was very common, even 25 years ago, to see Mexican immigrants driving with pick ups filled with animal parts heading off to the taco trucks and taquerias.
Parts is parts.
