Ben Franklin Hides Dead Bodies In House😱 #joerogan #storytime #murdermystery

[mnmdoctor]

He was a scientist, and he did autopsies on the bodies

“The most plausible explanation is not mass murder, but an anatomy school run by Benjamin Franklin’s young friend and protege, William Hewson, ” said the Guardian in 2003.

Literally the next paragraph in the article Joe was reading.

“Just one more short before bed”
The short:

"Jamie pull up that video of a bear getting murdered by serial killer Ben Franklin "

[janekmundt]

Leonardo da Vinci did the same. Since it was probably forbidden to dissect bodies people bought bodies from grave robbers and experimented on them to gain further insight into anatomy. That’s how Leonardo da Vinci became such a good painter, because he knew what the body underneath looked like

He was an early geneticist this isn’t even as bad as it probably actually was and people would probably offer thier lives blindly

Everywhere you go the truth will be said in one way or another they have always been lying to us and they always will but the truth will never lie

He had a friend who was into the study of human anatomy so they would get cadavers from the black market or stolen from graves so they could research and experiment.

Before 1832 (in the UK) dissection was forbidden. He was doing illegal anatomy studies.

1832 - the Anatomy Act provided for the needs of physicians,  surgeons, and students by giving them legal access to corpses that were unclaimed after death – in particular, corpses of those who had died in hospital,  prison, or a workhouse.[4] this is because people were disgusted at paupers bodies being bought and sold by without their consent (by grave robbers)

Like TONS of body's bro gives off some real shaggy vibes

[LOUDMOUF-DallaFornia]

That's how they had to do it back in those days I guess. You couldn't be like "I need dead bodies to experiment on so give me some". He had to be innovative!!!

[shawncruz]

[rockzog]

Franklin's
Son in law was an "Anatomical artist"
The young man died of a bacterial infection after nicking himself with a dirty scalpel..

Americans, today, should have to fill out a qualifying application to even question anything Ben Franklin did.

[hmm]

Franklin didn't kill people, however he did probably engage with graverobbers. As was normal for the time.
