Court Rules Three Men Can Face Charges In Sexual Assault Of Corpse
Men Were Charged With Third-Degree Sexual Assault

UPDATED: 12:52 pm CDT July 9, 2008

MADISON, Wis. -- Three men are now facing attempted sexual assault charges
after the Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled on Wednesday that people can be
charged with sexual assault when the victims are dead.

Back in 2006, the three men -- Alexander Grunke, his twin brother Nicholas
Grunke and their friend Dustin Radke -- were arrested on suspicion of
digging up the corpse of a woman in order to have sex with it.

Lower courts dismissed the attempted third-degree sexual assault charges
against the trio, saying that state law doesn't criminalize necrophilia.

However, the state Supreme Court overturned that ruling.

The court's ruling reinstates the charges against the three.

The men allegedly went to a southwestern Wisconsin cemetery in September
2006 to remove the body of Laura Tennessen, 20, of Cassville, who was killed
in a recent motorcycle crash. One of men apparently saw an obituary photo of
her and asked the others to help dig up the body so he could have sex with
it. The men went to the cemetery with shovels, a crowbar, a tarpaulin, and a
box of condoms, which the men had purchased that evening on their way to the
cemetery. They used shovels to reach her grave but eventually abandoned
their plan and were caught by authorities.
