Hello. Okay you are completely welcome to skip right past this very short Gene Pool, which is about necrophilia. The rest of us will wait right here while you depart. We will not make fun of you after you leave.
Are you gone now?
Good.
What wimps they are.
Okay, so. Many of you will remember that a couple of weeks ago I wrote a column about the entertainingly lurid headlines in the New York Daily News, such as “Arizona man dead by suicide after viral pantsless video at bikini coffee shop “
So there is a new one, just over the transom. Here it is.
Suspect arrested for raping corpse on Manhattan subway train earlier this month
Yes, indeed. A man whose photo was taken shortly after anally raping another man after he (the other man) had died of natural causes on a subway car, has been apprehended, apparently because his son turned him in. Also, he apparently had robbed the corpse of whatever the man had on him on the time, except for what he missed, which was apparently robbed by a woman on the same train, a person who is still being sought for questioning. Welcome to New York.
Anyway, that’s really all I have to say right now. This is not a particularly intellectual episode of The Gene Pool, but it does lead to an interesting Gene Pool Gene Poll.
Note: This is about the main “crime” only. Robbery is a different issue.
Good. This seems like an excellent time to ask you for money
Once I’m no longer using my mortal coil, people can do what they want with it. Parcel out whatever parts aren’t so decrepit they can do somebody else some good. Melt the implant(s) down for scrap. Tan my hide and fashion a giant sombrero. If there’s a way to squeeze out a bit of cash for my survivors, so much the better. Just make absolutely sure I’m done with it first.
In many states, the law prohibits "abuse" of a corpse which this event might arguably fall under.
