That struck me as being an oddly American thing.

Police are currently investigating whether the tongues were related to research conducted by the home’s previous owner, Ronald A. Baughman, a University of Florida professor emeritus whose work focused on oral medicine and surgery.
I mean, hopefully (though still wildly creepy, inappropriate and possibly illegal), but what if it turned out they weren’t?
Or not - it seems to me that I’ve read about more than one doctor/researcher who did… things related to their field of activity that weren’t a legitimate part of their work. I.e. the guy might have been attracted to his area of study because of his perversity (but went beyond it when his academic work disappointed him with its… limits).

Surely he could find a better one than inspecting crawlspaces? Oh, you meant… never mind

The police have some potential witnesses they’d like to question but so far they aren’t talking.
