Fisherman Reels In Human Head FBI Investigating Discovery Posted: 8:59 a.m. EDT August 26, 2002 Updated: 12:21 p.m. EDT August 26, 2002

FORT PIERCE, Fla. -- A Fort Pierce man out fishing with his son and a friend made a gruesome discovery in the waters of the Atlantic: a human head. Paul Trabulsy found the dismembered body part about 22 miles east of Fort Pierce Inlet.

The men used a gaff to fish the head out of the water and placed it in a garbage bag. Then they kept right on fishing.

"We didn't want to come in right away, so we just put it in a bag in a bucket. It'd been out there awhile. What's a couple of hours?" Trabulsy said.

The men docked and reported their discovery to the authorities about five hours later.

Federal and local authorities are investigating the origin of other human remains and a body found miles apart in the waters off Florida's east coast, officials said Sunday.

A body was found in the waters off Cape Canaveral Saturday, Russell said.

Medical examiners in Brevard and Martin counties took possession of the remains in an effort to identify them. It has been determined that the remains of one of the dead belonged to a female, Russell said.

"We have no way to correlate right now where these remains may have come from,'' Russell said. "We have multiple search and rescue cases every day.''

Russell said the Coast Guard was searching Sunday for one overdue vessel that may have come from Cuba with migrants aboard, but stressed that it was too early to know whether the discovery of the remains was connected to the fate of those aboard the missing boat.

FBI Miami spokeswoman Judy Orihuela said agents were investigating but had no additional details on the case.

"We have reports that people are missing from Cuba,'' Orihuela said. "We're just looking into it right now.''

i think they just waited till they got their headings

The person may have been a wife, mother, sister etc... however, a head is a head. It's no longer a person, but rather the box the person came in - Life is not the physical body, life is the soul... And we were not making jokes about the soul...

That quote is wierd...but hey, what do you expect from the culture of death? It's just another thing.

[Leisler]

When ever you go fishing, something always runs out. Like fuel, or ice, or beer or.......bait. I mean, you know. Like so what if its missing an ear, look at this Cobia will ya!

[TBall]

I bet my fishing buddies and I would have done the same thing. We would have put the head in a bucket of ice and called it in. I doubt I would have eaten any of the fish caught that day.

I think they put the head in the bag just to save face, they thought about it and just said, bUCK - it, I mean...bucket.

Always aim for the head pin...

[MacDorcha]

now your just getting ahead of yourself

[MacDorcha]

do you think the fishermen rubbed it to see if they could get a wish or good luck?

[Born in a Rage]

thank you for making me face the truth, I've really been sticking my neck out with these one-liners...maybe it's time to call it a night and head off into bed %P

[MacDorcha]

[Chad Fairbanks]

[Born in a Rage]

[Born in a Rage]

[MacDorcha]

[freedom1st]

Obviously the head's name is Bob.

I thought the head's name was Wilson and was lost at sea.

[MacDorcha]

maybe not the head of the class, but unlike others apparently, ive got a good head on my shoulders

[Born in a Rage]

I bet my fishing buddies and I would have done the same thing. We would have put the head in a bucket of ice and called it in. I doubt I would have eaten any of the fish caught that day.

If you wouldn't eat the fish anyway, then what would be the point in staying? I don't get it at all.....strange, imho.

Unlike many european heads of state...
