INDIANAPOLIS – FBI agents seized thousands of artifacts Wednesday from a 91-year-old man’s private collection at his home in rural central Indiana and says it will return the items that were wrongfully in his possession

A dozen or so federal agents showed up at my collector friend's house a few years ago and spent 10 hours searching the place. My friend had been reported to them as someone that was known to have a "human bone artifact" in his possession. Of course there was nothing found, because there never was such an item.

Thanks Cogar. I have seen this...it is all over the Artifact forums I am on. Here is another link to the story with a home video of some of his collection. It kinda creeps me out that he had human remains in his basement including a complete skeleton. No bones in my house! I have heard there is a whole lot more to this story also.

Talk about your most interesting hoarder! EEgads! If he is 91 what was he still saving them for?

IcedGold10, what we all save our "treasures" for....our enjoyment and hopefully others! :)

I wonder if he was planning to leave all of it to a relative. Maybe he was going to add himself to his own collection. Imagine inheriting that?

You you've had a bad day when ..... the FBI is at your house! ;D

I'm thinking he named the skeleton and sat having drinks with it at night. ;D
