Summary
A military medical examiner, Dr. Shelley, engaged in highly unprofessional conduct by removing a Marine sergeant's brain from an autopsy and taking it home, allowing his children to handle and photograph the evidence. Despite being reprimanded by the Virginia Medical Board with a $2,500 fine, Maricopa County still hired him to work on high-profile criminal cases. The incident reveals significant ethical breaches and questionable professional judgment within forensic medical practices.
