Wisconsin law bans sex with dead bodies, the state Supreme Court ruled Wednesday in reinstating charges against three men accused of digging up a corpse so one of them could have sex with it.

The court waded into the grisly case after lower court judges ruled nothing in state law banned necrophilia. Those decisions prompted public outrage and a push by a state lawmaker to make sex with a corpse a crime.

In Wednesday's 5-2 decision, the high court said Wisconsin law makes sex acts with dead people illegal because they are unable to give consent.

The ruling reinstates the attempted sexual assault charges against twin brothers Nicholas and Alexander Grunke and Dustin Radke, all 22. The charges carry a punishment of up to 10 years in prison.

1. When having sex with dead bodies is outlawed

only outlaws will have sex with dead bodies.

For some reason it's amusing to me the charge is attempted sexual assault. As in, it didn't work, because they were dead.

weren't enough.

Or is it just so cold some live people don't want to have sex? :shrug:

Reminds me of George Carlin's words on the subject

"The one good thing about necrophilia is that you don't have to bring flowers. In most cases, they're already there."

I was just talking about Carlin with my father, and how I used to sneak listens of Occupation:Fool when my parents were gone. I miss George already.

11. How does one begin the conversation, asking two people to help you dig up your date?

So, if you're not doing anything Friday night, I have a date. I'll need a lift, man. And a shovel...
