SEATTLE (Reuters) - A woman has sued the largest county in Washington state for harvesting the brain of her dead brother for research without obtaining permission from next of kin, according to court records obtained on Tuesday.
In a lawsuit filed 10 days ago in Pierce County Superior Court, Robinette Amaker of North Carolina claimed that the brain of her deceased brother, Bradley Gierlich, was taken from his body in 1998 at the King County Medical Examiner's office.
