Florida Woman Charged for Selling Human Bones Online Through Curio Shop
Kymberlee Schopper, 52, was arrested for trading in human remains via her business Wicked Wonderland and released on a $7,500 bond as authorities investigate the legality and origins of the items sold.
- The investigation began in December 2023 after police received a tip-off with images of human bones being sold on Facebook Marketplace by Wicked Wonderland, a curio shop in Orange City, Florida.
- Kymberlee Schopper, the store's co-owner, was arrested in April 2025 on charges of trading in human tissue but was released on a $7,500 bond; her business partner is also under investigation.
- Items for sale included skull fragments, ribs, vertebrae, and a partial human skull, with prices ranging from $35 to $600, according to police reports.
- Conflicting claims emerged during the investigation, with Schopper describing the remains as 'educational models' while her business partner referred to them as 'genuine human remains.'
- Experts determined that some of the items seized were archaeological in nature, with one fragment estimated to be over 100 years old and another more than 500 years old.
