Considering how impossible it is to carry a lighter or even a medium-sized bottle of shampoo onto an airplane, a woman from Morocco really should have known she wasn't going to slide through airport security undetected with her late husband's organs in her luggage. 

Security at southern Austria's Graz airport reportedly stopped a woman who was coming into the country from Morocco carrying the husband's entrails, carefully wrapped in two containers, The Independent reports, citing the German-language newspaper Klein Zeitung. Security noticed her because, surprisingly, she was acting suspicious. 

The woman was apparently trying to get the organs tested, because she believed that the man might have been poisoned, the BBC writes. Unfortunately, a doctor who was called to the scene told her that without the whole body, an autopsy couldn't be performed. 

The woman wasn't in trouble, because carrying around your dead husband's guts isn't actually against any law there, unlike certain things Freddie Gibbs seems to have done at airport security. Maybe next time she tries to travel with a loved one's organs and doesn't want to be hassled she'll just disguise them as fast food and be done with it.
