The body of a woman uncovered from the cement floor of a Newark carriage house seems to be tied to a fake plastic surgeon who has been under investigation by authorities. Police matched the serial numbers of the breast implants in the body to those of missing Manhattan bank analyst Maria Cruz. Cruz was last seen last April and had been a patient of Dean Faiello, who was practicing surgery without a license. Attorney General Eliot Spitzer's office charged him last year, and Faiello pled guilty and paid a fine. However, he went on the run last September before sentencing. Faiello had owned the Newark house, and police decided to break open the concrete floor, noticing it was newly made. Police believe Cruz's death was caused by cosmetic surgery complications. An analyst at Barclay's, friends of Cruz suggest that she was depressed over a breakup at the time of her disappearance; the Post says Cruz had a self-image problem, having fat removed from her face and the breast augmentation. That means thousands of New York women have self-image problems.

Breast augmentation = bad. Really. They end up just looking like two halves of a cantelope glued to a ribcage.
And who knew that breast implants had serial numbers?
Great policework.
Countdown till serial-numbered implants, bodies buried in cement, and phony doctor storyline ends up on L&O... 10... 9... 8...
Better . . . the house used to belong to famed soprano Maria Jeritza.
Bah, it's already been done on L&O. Two years ago. The episode where a headless, armless body is found, they trace the identity through her breast implants and she turns out to be a major Hollywood player. Jeannene Garofolo played her assistant. It was a two parter.
God, I'm pathetic for knwoing that.
Hey Frankenstein - that chip in your head has a serial number, too.
Danielle,
Actually, it was a 3 parter. And I'm more pathetic for knowing that. It was the one where they went to L.A.
On a totally other topic, so you're this lousy unlicensed plastic surgeon who performs surgery on a woman who subsequently dies. Does it not occur to you to remove said implants first, knowing they have traceable serial numbers? I mean, she's dead, she's in your house, you're gonna bury her under concrete. But, apparently not. Another reason we all should be watching L&O.
Editing myself: Daniella. Sorry.
Damn!! That house looks creepy!

Thousands of New York women DO have self-image problems.
