ORANGE CITY, Fla. (WFLA) — A business owner in Volusia County was arrested Thursday for buying and selling human bones on Facebook Marketplace.

According to NBC affiliate WESH, Orange City police received word back in December 2023 that Kymberlee Schopper, 52, was advertising various human bones through her business, Wicked Wonderland, located at 2461 N. Volusia Ave.

Orange City police told reporters that during an investigation, they found six human remains listed on the website for the business, including a human rib, a human clavicle, a scapula, a human vertebra, two human skull fragments, and a partial human skull.

Orange County detectives spoke with the co-owner of Wicked Wonderland, who said they were unaware it was illegal and that the shop had been selling human remains for several years.

The bones were collected and submitted as evidence to the medical examiner’s office in Daytona Beach, according to WESH.

Reports found the fragments came from two different people and had both archaeological and anatomical origins.

Trading in human tissue is a second-degree felony in the state of Florida.

After questioning the business owner, Volusia County records showed that Schopper was released Friday on a $7,500 bond.
