An anatomy murder (sometimes called burking in British English) is a murder committed in order to use all or part of the cadaver for medical research or teaching. It is not a medicine murder because the body parts are not believed to have any medicinal use in themselves. The motive for the murder is created by the demand for cadavers for dissection, and the opportunity to learn anatomy and physiology as a result of the dissection. Rumors concerning the prevalence of anatomy murders are associated with the rise in demand for cadavers in research and teaching produced by the Scientific Revolution. During the 19th century, the sensational serial murders associated with Burke and Hare and the London Burkers led to legislation which provided scientists and medical schools with legal ways of obt

  • An anatomy murder (sometimes called burking in British English) is a murder committed in order to use all or part of the cadaver for medical research or teaching. It is not a medicine murder because the body parts are not believed to have any medicinal use in themselves. The motive for the murder is created by the demand for cadavers for dissection, and the opportunity to learn anatomy and physiology as a result of the dissection. Rumors concerning the prevalence of anatomy murders are associated with the rise in demand for cadavers in research and teaching produced by the Scientific Revolution. During the 19th century, the sensational serial murders associated with Burke and Hare and the London Burkers led to legislation which provided scientists and medical schools with legal ways of obtaining cadavers. Rumors persist that anatomy murders are carried out wherever there is a high demand for cadavers. These rumors, like those concerning organ theft, are hard to substantiate, and may reflect continued, deep-held fears of the use of cadavers as commodities. (en)
  • Анатомическое убийство (англ. anatomy murder) — термин, традиционно принятый в англоязычной криминалистике: убийство, совершаемое для использования трупа (целиком или частично) в анатомических исследованиях, а также в качестве учебного экспоната.

Сенсационные серийные убийства в Великобритании XIX столетия, связанные с именами «похитителей тел» (англ. body snatchers; традиционный перевод — «похитители трупов») Уильяма Бёрка и Уильяма Хэра, а также наследовавшей им преступной группы привели к принятию в 1832 году специального законодательного акта, предоставлявшего учёным и медицинским школам легальные способы получения трупного материала.
