Crime and Policing BillContribution
Quite simply, I regard anyone who has sex or sexual activity with a corpse as a filthy, disgusting pervert who should be locked up. Similarly, I regard anyone who has sex or sexual activity with an animal as a filthy, disgusting pervert who should be locked up. So what is the difference? In the case of a corpse, there is no physical harm or hurt to the corpse, although there is terrible mental harm and distress to relatives and all the rest of us from the thought that someone should desecrate a body in such a despicable way as that. But, in the case of animals, there is often physical hurt and severe cruelty to the animal, and often the death of the animal—unless of course the pervert tries it on with a horse or something.
