Police Called To Home Find Human Hand

An exotic dancer who decorated her home with skulls and a severed hand was to be arraigned for improper disposition of human remains, authorities said.

Police responding to a report Friday of a suicidal person at the home of 31-year-old Linda Kay discovered a large, crudely severed human hand in a mason jar of formaldehyde on the dresser of Kay's basement bedroom, according to the police report.

While the subject of the initial phone call was not located in the home, authorities found six skulls in an upstairs room. The Middlesex County medical examiner has determined all are human.

Two people who knew Kay, including one who stayed at her house for about two months earlier this year, said that the hand, which Kay nicknamed "Freddy," was a gift from a medical student who frequented the Union strip club where she dances.
