BERLIN, Germany -- The brains of three members of the infamous Baader-Meinhof Gang of German urban guerrillas have disappeared, a laboratory said on Monday.
Andreas Baader, Gudrun Ensslin and Jan-Carl Raspe were members of the gang that waged a campaign of killings, bombings and kidnappings against the West German establishment in the 1970s.
After the three extreme leftists committed suicide in prison in 1977, their brains were taken to a university hospital in southern Tuebingen for autopsy, but the brains are no longer there and their whereabouts are unknown.
"When I took over the institute in 1990, the brains were not there, although they were still listed in our files," Richard Meyermann, head of the hospital's institute for brain research, told Reuters. He said it was unlikely they were stolen.

So, in your d20 Modern campaign... what really happened here? Sorcerers needing the brain tissue of psychopaths for some potion? Someone out to animate some cheap labor? The gang members were psionic and still mentally active, and controlling the scientists? What?
