A 53-year-old man had allegedly killed his newly married daughter and subsequently had sex with her lifeless body before burying her.
Police officials in the Northampton County of Pennsylvania command said that they discovered a video evidence showing the man, Gregory Graf sexually assaulting the corpse of his 33-year-old daughter, Jessica Padgett, a mother of three.
According to investigations, police officials arrived at a conclusion that the man had murdered his daughter in cold blood because he had necrophilia, a condition which makes one sexually attracted to corpses.
According to World Wide Weird News, after confessing and admitting to have committed the crime, Graf led investigators to where the body was buried.
In his defence, Graf’s lawyer, John McMahon claimed that the suspect could be battling with some mental issues and added that he will seek a mental health evaluation.
According to investigations, the victim was last seen on November, 21, 2014 and her body was later found buried behind a shed on the property where Graf lives with her mother.
A post mortem test was conducted on the deceased and reports showed that she had been murdered and sexually abused.
Moreover, the results from the tests matched Graf’s DNA to dried semen found on the corpse.
Graf was arrested and charged with murder on Friday, January 30, 2015.
