In absolutely horrifying news, workers at a health agency’s corporate offices in Melbourne mistakenly found a “bone room”. Yes, they literally happened upon a room with a bunch of human bones in it. The worst part? Nobody knows where they came from…
So how the heck did this all happen?
In the admin building of the Box Hill Hospital, a nurse educator found” two clinical waste bins, a plastic specimen container filled with a brown liquid, a small fridge which was on and appeared to be the source of the leak, and dry bone fragments inside a plastic bag” back in February per The Age.
So far this is sounding like a horrific combination of Scooby-Doo and Law and Order and quite frankly, I’m not a fan.
A couple of days later, a doctor at the hospital identified the bones as being from a human skull.
The so-called “bone room” has since been referred to the Coroner’s Court where it is currently being investigated.
