    Ok, that's just freaking weird. The dried pet fish and cards they gave him just makes it very macabre.

    I have to agree with everyone....this is macabre. Gives me the shivers to think of keeping something like that.

    I think perhaps the 'strangest' part of this story is that his neice goes to day-care but is allowed to create a Myspace page!

    Remember when people used to go to exotic places and bring back a 'real' shrunken head?

    Kind of the same thing...that 'head' was a PERSON.

    Ewwww.

    Gross.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.
    [/SIZE]



    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    I thought this sounded sacrilegious in a way. It was a human baby and
    deserves the same respect as other dead bodies.

    The family that would do this without second thought sounds goulish to me.

    I would hope the judge would want a DNA sample taken...who knows who this poor baby was?

    I wasn't clear on why the judge ruled as he did, as it seemed based on kinship? So, if the guy could positively prove it was his kin, he could keep on displaying the mummy like he was?
