In a bizarre twist to a disturbing case, a man who allegedly had sex with the corpse of an elderly woman cannot be charged for that indecent act.

The man was allegedly discovered by an employee Saturday morning in the basement of a funeral home, passed out drunk, with his pants down, on top of the cadaver.

But that apparently is not a crime in California. According to Assistant District Attorney Adrian Ivancevich, who is prosecuting the case, there are no laws in California that specifically address necrophilia.

Looks like CA has inadequate PENAL codes. ;)

Good grief!

Cali needs so much help with so many things and this is just another to be added to the list.

Maybe they can get him for having sex with a party that did not consent - - who knows
