LIMA, Peru - Police say a gang in the Peruvian jungle has been killing people and draining fat from the corpses to sell on the black market for use in cosmetics, although medical experts say they doubt a major market for fat exists.

Wouldn’t it be easier just to buy fat from plastic surgeons who do liposuction?

Oh my. A fellow patient at PT a couple weeks ago was telling me about that website and I had forgotten all about it. Not sure I want to go there now.
