A Chicago-area cremation service has claimed the 18 human heads discovered at O’Hare Airport, Cook County medical examiner’s office spokeswoman Mary Paleologos told the LA Times Tuesday:

She said the cremation service told authorities the heads had been sent to an Italian facility for medical research by a different entity and shipped back to Chicago for disposal. Federal authorities must confirm the paperwork before releasing the heads to the cremation service, she said.
