May 30 (Reuters) - A Pennsylvania man is facing charges that he stole human skin worth about $350,000 from a Philadelphia hospital over a period of nearly two years, police said.
Gary Dudek, 54, is accused of stealing skin intended for use in skin-graft surgeries from Mercy Philadelphia Hospital between November 2011 and July 2013, a Philadelphia police spokeswoman said.
The hospital called the police after noticing that skin was missing during an audit, according to Officer Christine O'Brien, a police spokeswoman.
She said that Dudek may have had occasion to visit the hospital for his job as a sales director for Organogenesis, a Massachusetts-based biotech firm that engineers tissue for use in grafting out of skin cells.

Maybe his motive was just financial, but how does one fence stolen skin? I suspect something much creepier.
The competition in this thread were close, but, you came out on top. 
...and other places around the globe refer to human meat as ''long pork.''
- Maybe he was gonna make rinds?
Hey! I'm just throwing ideas out there.....
