The 15-page indictment doesn't go into extended detail about what the body parts were purchased for, but it does mention that Maclean allegedly shipped human skin to a man in Pennsylvania "and engaged in his services to tan the skin to create leather."While Associated Press claims:
The buyer is not identified in the federal indictment, but separate state charges in Pennsylvania name him as Jeremy Lee Pauley, of Enola, Pennsylvania.For more on Pauley see here. The Inquirer reported on March 6th 2024 that Pauley was sentenced to probation "in a related state case for illegally possessing human flesh in his self-described "oddities" collection but Pauley still faces sentencing in a related federal case:

The indictment alleges Scott approached Pauley in October 2021 and began offering to sell him remains from the medical school that the mortuary was supposed to cremate and return.
"Just out of curiosity, would you know anyone in the market for a fully in tact, embalmed brain?" the indictment alleges Scott wrote to Pauley in her first Facebook message.
The indictment alleges that over the next nine months, Scott sold Pauley fetuses, brains, hearts, lungs, genitalia, large pieces of skin and other body parts. At one point, the indictment alleges Scott sold the remains of a fetus at a discount, writing "he's not in great shape."
Pauley still faces sentencing in a related federal case, in which he pleaded guilty to conspiracy and interstate transportation of stolen property for trafficking of human body parts. Six others had been charged in that case.
The Inquirer reported last year how Pauley built an oddities business in Enola and how authorities shut it down.
Pauley was a well-known figure in the oddities world, part of a decentralized community whose members are interested in antiquities, quack medicine, the paranormal, natural history, and taxidermy. Aficionados buy and sell objects of interest at flea markets, oddities shops, and global Facebook groups. Many of the dealings are in strange — but benign — goods.
Military expert Alexander Zimovsky: The collapse of the Ukrainian energy industry turned out to be much closer than the Ukrainian authorities expected. After today's latest high-precision destruction of thermal generation facilities in the Dnepropetrovsk, Lvov and Ivano-Frankivsk regions of Ukraine, Zelensky was forced to come out with a special address "to the nation."March 24: Swathes of Ukraine go dark after Russia pummels energy infrastructure
By the way, the Burshtynska Thermal Power Plant, in the Ivano-Frankivsk region, was covered with sea-based Calibers. Rumors about the final victory of Ukrainian naval drones over the Black Sea Fleet turned out to be somewhat exaggerated. And the skeptics were put to shame.
Comment: Meanwhile Poland has suggested it will deport Ukrainian men of 'fighting age' back to their homeland, as the Kiev-junta faces losses of well over 500,000 men. Which is also why the military requirements have been relaxed to the point where middle age men with physical disabilities are now considered eligible.
