Reply to comment by zorionek0 in Pitt students facing abuse of corpse charges for alleged class incident by WookieeSteakIsChewie

Either way, it's abuse of a corpse and a crime.

Thanks to u/zorionek0 for getting more details by finding this article.

There’s degrees to that. These are students, and it happened in a classroom. Hard to believe it was that extreme, and if it was why did the cops wait a month to charge them?

I missed the “read more” button on mobile so I thought it was just those first few paragraphs.

Edit: I went a googling and it was way worse

Edit. See below, I was very very wrong.

Abuse of a corpse is a criminal matter and being 19 isn’t a reason for it not to be a crime.

Do you understand that you are trying to “boys will be boys” these people out of abusing a dead body?

It's weird to me that you don't see molesting a body to be a crime, but you're entitled to your opinion I suppose.

It was WAY worse than I thought. Jimenez should be in jail.

I thought it was going to be more like this- off color comments. I don’t think what Gupta did was a crime if he was making mocking comments while doing the assignment

>Different witnesses told police that student Amay Gupta made mocking sexual comments about a male cadaver while having his hand inside the body's chest.

WTAE had more detail.

You were right, I was wrong.

Jesus Christ.

  1. Good on you for doing more digging and being willing to admit you were wrong. More people, including me, need to be willing to do so.

  2. That Jimenez is one sick bastard and threw away his entire future being gross.

Agree. I’d like to understand what actually happened. Having sex with, vs poking and making a joke are very different levels of severity to me.

I understand they may not be to everyone, but that’s my take

Yeah, that was my first though too but it is Significantly worse.

It sounds like the one kid was more like what I expected- making dumb jokes.

But the other kid is awful
