Carl Tanzler, a radiology technologist at the Marine-Hospital Service in Key West, Florida, became fixated on a young Cuban-American tuberculosis patient named Elena “Helen” Milagro de Hoyos. His obsession with Hoyos persisted long after her death. In 1933, Tanzler removed Hoyos’ body from its tomb and kept it at his home for seven years until its discovery by Hoyos’ family and authorities in 1940. This disturbing incident overshadowed Tanzler’s professional background in radiology technology.
