Lending A Hand - Part Two

Yesterday we brought you the heartwarming tale of Freddy, a severed human hand kept in a jar of formaldehyde on a dresser in a bedroom. Said bedroom belonged to an exotic dancer who also kept six human skulls scattered about the house. Well, the tale just keeps going.

After being released on $100,000 bail, Linda Kay failed to show up in court for her arraignment. The judge has revoked bail and issued a warrant for Ms. Kay's arrest. (Don't miss the mugshot picture. She looks like a barrel of laughs in it.)

Linda Kay, 31, faces charges of improperly disposing of human remains.

She was arrested Friday and freed on $100,000 bail pending her Wednesday morning arraignment. When she didn't show up for court, the judge revoked her bail and issued an arrest warrant.

Friends say the hand, whom Kay nicknamed "Freddy," was a gift from a medical student who frequented the all-nude juice bar where Kay dances. Kay's mother told The Star-Ledger of Newark she believed the skulls were bought from a mail-order catalog.

Here's an update from the Newark Star-Ledger as well. It would appear that Ms. Kay has not had a lawyer filing papers or anything, either. This would appear to be getting a bit murky. Or murkier, as the case may be.
