75-year-old mystery: 2 fetuses found in California

[Jazzy]

LOS ANGELES – As Yiming Xing peeled back the tattered Los Angeles Times papers from a small bundle, hoping to discover well-preserved antiques beneath the 1930s newsprint, she instead found the remains of two human fetuses.



The bundles had been placed in doctor's bags inside an unclaimed green steamer trunk from the 1920s. They had been there for more than 75 years in the basement of Xing's apartment complex, a four-story brick building in LA's Westlake district, a once-elegant early 20th century neighborhood west of downtown.



The Glen-Donald building was home to doctors, lawyers, writers and actors when it opened in 1925 and the basement had once been a ballroom and the site of elaborate galas.



Xing was helping her friend, Gloria Gomez, the building's onsite manager, clean out the basement late Tuesday when she made the discovery.

Imagine finding that

 

[Nebulous]

Why would someone save that? Unless it was a science teacher or something.

 

[Jazzy]

I would have freaked out if I found that

 

[The Dragon Master]

Urmm... That's weird, why would someone save that?

I would've been totally creeped out. History is one thing, but something like finding that is something else all together!
