Not all the news out of Detroit is depressing. A man there stole his father’s encoffined corpse from the cemetery, brought it home in the family van, and pulled the body into the basement with the hope of resurrecting it.<\/p>\n

Biblically, the father raises the son, but what comes around goes around.<\/p>\n

Anyway, the police arrested him—he left a pretty literal trail of evidence from the scene all the way home. He pleaded guilty.<\/p>\n

The stories do not say how long his father had been deceased, but one hopes it was rather recently. Otherwise the material…well, you know.<\/p>\n

Doubtless, he is merely following our advice from 1996 on raising the dead<\/a> for fun and profit<\/s>, so perhaps he should have pleaded not guilty until the judge reads our site for a couple more years.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
