Came up in a disussion, and no one could locate the info. Anybody know what Code / Section (if any) that would make sex w/ a corpse in CA a crime???

H & S 7052.
http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/cgi-bin/wa...ction=retrieve
I think this was amended back in 2003/2004 due to those two sick whackos who violated the remains of a 4 year old girl out of San Bernardino.
7052. (a) Every person who willfully mutilates, disinters, removes
from the place of interment, or commits an act of sexual penetration
on, or has sexual contact with, any remains known to be human,
without authority of law, is guilty of a felony. This section does
not apply to any person who, under authority of law, removes the
remains for reinterment, or performs a cremation.
(b) For purposes of this section, the following definitions apply:
(1) "Sexual penetration" means the unlawful penetration of the
vagina or anus, however slight, by any part of a person's body or
other object, or any act of sexual contact between the sex organs of
a person and the mouth or anus of a dead body, or any oral copulation
of a dead human body for the purpose of sexual arousal,
gratification, or abuse.
(2) "Sexual contact" means any willful touching by a person of an
intimate part of a dead human body for the purpose of sexual arousal,
gratification, or abuse.Last edited by avalon42; 07-26-2008, 11:46 PM. -

Thanks. I thought it would probably be an H&S violation, but just couldn't locate it...Never give in--never, never, never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense.

It wasn't on my "cheat sheet" either! The closest I came to investigating one of these was while attending an FBI training seminar that included home videos produced by the suspect. A social worker who was present fainted and IMHO it was definitely a case of TMI!Originally posted by SoCalSheriff View Post

some folks are just sick idiots..
wanna' hear something "gross"?? we were visiting the Co.Morgue during part of my depts CSI training days and one of our "idiots" was actually asking staff IF they ever "thought about it",and pointed to the body of a young hisp female(sad to,even to this day so see sooo many people stacked like cord wood laying on metal shelves in plastic),after this dummy made a comment on how "hot" she looked, the attendant turned to him with serious DISTAIN,and said "no, shes dead and YOU obviously don't get it that she was someones 'child"..apparently the girl, a 17 yr old hisp gang associate had been shot thru the neck with a small caliber bullet,was a former reported runaway and was HIV +. I am happy, however that the fool that asked this question is no longer part of the unit.....Originally posted by pulicords View PostIt wasn't on my "cheat sheet" either!

That's seriously scary and gross! One thing that really impressed me with the L.A. County Coroner's Office was their professionalism. They treated the dead (no matter who they were or how bad they'd become) with respect, as well as any next of kin or friends of the family. I seriously liked working with their investigators and the pathologists. Although the county kinda treats them like the "ugly stepchild" (funding wise), the people working there that I've known are first rate. If I didn't dislike the idea about going back to a 40+ hour work week with a potential for Morning Watch, I'd probably prefer working there vs the L.A. County D.A.'s Office as an Investigator. (Disregarding the stink factor, of course!)Originally posted by DOAcop38 View Post"I'm not fluent in the language of violence, but I know enough to get around in places where it's spoken."Comment

If you even think about having sex with a corpse..you are one, hard up and two, need to be taken out back and shot!
This profession is not for people looking for positive reinforcement from the public. Very often it can be a thankless job and you can't desire accolades, because those are not usually forthcoming. Just do your job to the best of your ability and live with the decisions you've made.Comment
