If anyone has been to a head shop (they sell smoking paraphernalia), sometimes you can stumble upon a piece that has a fake human skull as a base. Why this guy needed a real version escapes me?

So many disturbed or evil people don't respect life, why should they handle the deceased any differently? Here is another question, is what this guy did any different than an archaeological dig? I'm a fan of The Discovery Channel, History etc and love learning about such topics. But aren't archaeologists and anthropologists also desecrating some one's final resting place?

PS - What this guy did was sick. I am in no way condoning it. I'm curious to see what people think.

Yet alot of people still can't help but ask me about all the crazy people in NY.

NY obviously doesn't have a monopoly there.

I'm more amused that a guy with the handle Grassi knows all about head shops. Stop breaking all the stereotypes!

First of all, this happened in Morrisville, which is not in the NEK. It's just north of Stowe. The only reason it made the CalWreck is that the trial was in good 'ol StJ. Just got to put those facts out there so you don't think us Kingdom folk are all nuts!!! (like Trialboss I grew up over there). LOL ;)

I actually didn't see the Morrissville part.

It doesn't change the fact that you NEK folks are nutjobs ;)
