Body Processing

Upon entering the facility, each convict was tattooed with a unique bar code and numeric ID, and was given a surgical implant in their neck.

Each convict's bar code was tied to their profile within the correctional facility network. This ensured positive ID of each body after every execution. The implant helped keep track of each prisoner's physical location within a 200 mile circumference of the prison, and also included a micro-explosive ring.

If any prisoner left the facility without prior authorization, the charge would detonate, cleanly severing the head of an escaping convict from their body.

One of the duties carried out by the young convicts at the Youth Criminal Corrections Center is the processing of bodies from the daily executions. Each day, a truck brought the corpses into the prison morgue, where the convicts would scan the barcodes on the bodies, marking each corpse with a body tag, before bagging them up and throwing them in the walk in freezer.

The bodies often went to medical schools for autopsy practice, or were bought by wealthy individuals for their own private aims. Rumors abounded about the former, including whispers of cannibalistic rituals performed by an elite cult. These were never substantiated, as semi-private institutions such as the YCCC kept their records out of the public eye.
