This sounds so made up, and the article is full of holes. Why is the last sentence "Because of a heavy rain, officers were unable to determine whether the casket or the body had been disturbed"? I'm hoping they meant before the guy confessed. If it really happened, and if the guys were actually charged, then I think the officers were able to determine that the body had been disturbed.

Maybe this is the confession they got after they dragged the suspects out of their car and beat them repeatedly after they surrendered in Philly ....

what a credulous hack journalist. he should've pointed out in the article that these corpse-abuse busts don't do anything to stop the cadaver bong trade.

Back in college a little pot and a little head was a good night in. I fail to see the problem.

Matthew Gonzalez and Kevin Jones have been charged with the misdemeanor offense of abuse of a corpse, said Scott Durfee, a spokesman for the Harris County District Attorneys Office.

They dug up the body and stole the head and it's a misdemeanor? WTF?

Pot head, ha!

Is there some way I can donate my skull for that purpose when I die? I can't think of a better use (including its current one, which isn't really doing anybody any good).

Well, we can use your brain, @15. So long as you don't mind us slicing it up in itsy bitsy thin slices, staining it, and freezing half of it for later ...

When I was little my friend's father, a palaeontologists, used to serve candy out of a human skull on Halloween. We thought it was really cool.

Grave robbing though, not so much.

I was amazed to discover this story wasn't about black-metal aficionados from Norway.
