Ryan McPherson and Daniel Tanner attempted to ship via DHL on Saturday.
FBI spokeswoman Bridget Pappas said Monday that investigators are aware that Ryan McPherson and Daniel Tanner were questioned after Bangkok police confiscated the three packages labeled “toys.”
Thai police said they contained body parts including an infant’s skull, a baby’s toes, an adult heart, tattooed skin.
The 31-year-old McPherson and 33-year-old Tanner were released by the Thai police after they considered human parts were just medical parts and found no law to take action against the two.
They claimed to have bought the parts from a night market for 100 US dollars.
