Not sure why you feel a need to veer into personal attacks here man. Have a good night.

How the fuck does the professional work a funeral director does by request of the family having the funeral even remotely compare to the perversion that is sexual abuse of a corpse. Apples and potatoes. And yes it should be criminally just as it would for anyone NOT in a university that abuses a corpse.

There’s nothing in the statute that doesn’t apply to funereal requests, and there’s nothing in the statute that says if the (or some members of the) family request something, it’s not still a basis for liability.

Contrariwise, there is language in the comment to the statute that indicates that it’s reference to authorization by other law means to exempt those engaged in academic settings.

I agree that this law is very vague. "Ordinary family sensibilities" is practically meaningless.

And certainly different today than it was when the law was enacted. And different within families.
