I would imagine it's incredibly illegal to share that information with him?

That's a strange thing to imagine, but, no, it's not illegal to share that information with him, let alone incredibly illegal.

Rather, the selling of the body to the Army was the illegal part, and his case (among many, many others) led to multiple fraud convictions, with the head of the company that sold the body getting a 9-year prison sentence.

Right, that's the part I was referring to. Thanks for the article.

The selling wasn’t illegal. The fraud was.

The selling in general wasn't illegal. The selling to the Army, specifically, was, because it was fraudulent.
