Is it technically necrophilia if you don’t realize someone is dead? A 45-year-old woman in Big Sandy, Texas spent a lovely week at home with her husband. Only, he was dead, having been taken off dialysis a week before. When her brother came by and he noticed a foul odor, he called the police. They found the man sitting on the couch, propped up by pillows, wearing sweatpants and no shirt. “He doesn’t want to leave the house,” his wife said. The poor woman was committed for psychological evaluation. It’s one thing if you’re a big schemer and live with a dead person because you want to keep receiving their pension or if there’s a whole “Weekend at Bernie’s” situation, but this woman sounds like a whole nother can of worms.
