3 accused of using corpse head to smoke pot

The Kingwood teenager's story of decapitating a corpse and using the head to smoke marijuana was so outlandish that at first Houston Police Department senior officer Jim Adkins did not believe it.
Yet, Kevin Wade Jones Jr., 17, appeared almost indifferent as he relayed the bizarre description of his and two friends' activities at a Humble area graveyard, Adkins said.
"I just doubted it because it's very morbid, and I couldn't see anybody doing something like this," Adkins said Thursday.
Not until police went to the home of another Kingwood teen, 17-year-old Matthew Richard Gonzalez, did the officer believe the tale.
"He regurgitated in his plate of food when I asked him about it," Adkins said. "So I knew there was some truth to the story."
Now, Jones, Gonzalez and a juvenile whose name has not been released are each charged with abuse of a corpse, a misdemeanor offense. All three were arrested Wednesday night.
Police are also searching for a fourth suspect wanted for questioning.
Houston police believe the teens disturbed the grave of an 11-year-old boy who died in 1921. The child was buried at an unmarked cemetery believed to be reserved for black veterans and their families, Adkins said.
Under the law, a person can be charged with abuse of a corpse simply by vandalizing, damaging or treating a gravesite offensively — even if the human remains buried there are not touched, Adkins said.
The child's skull has not been found. If recovered later, however, such a discovery will not change the charges filed against the three suspects, Adkins said.
The teens first came to police's attention during a vehicle burglary investigation. While being questioned by police, Jones revealed the morbid tale of desecrating the gravesite a month or two months ago, which Adkins believes was a diversionary tactic intended to distract police from the vehicle break-in.
Jones claimed he and his friends used shovels to dig up the body and removed the corpse's head with a garden tool, Adkins said. Jones also revealed he and the other two boys took the severed head to the juvenile's home, where they used the skull as a "bong" device to smoke marijuana, the officer said.
Police made three separate trips to the heavily wooded, snake-infested graveyard near the Eastex Freeway feeder road and FM 1960 before finding the disturbed grave several days ago.
"The grave was uncovered, and the headstone had been thrown off the grave and broken," Adkins said. "The dirt was piled out of it in large piles."
Because the grave is flooded with murky water from recent heavy rains, police have been unable to determine if the child's casket is still in the ground. Adkins said he used a 5-foot stick to poke around in the muddy water, but could not feel anything.
All three teens gave written and verbal confessions admitting they tried to dig up a body over a two-day period, Adkins said. But the boys told conflicting stories about whether they actually severed the head — so police aren't sure if that gruesome task really happened.
Even so, Houston police are working closely with Humble police to try and find any surviving relatives of the child whose grave was disturbed.
"The ultimate goal will be to put this body back to rest," Adkins said.
Little is known about the graveyard. The Humble Bicentennial Museum could not confirm that the graveyard was reserved for black veterans, but Adkins said he observed "many, many headstones" for black soldiers killed during World War I and World War II.
All three boys, who are home-schooled, have also been charged in connection with the vehicle break-in. Jones and the juvenile are charged with credit card abuse, while Gonzalez was charged with misdemeanor theft between $50 and $500. Gonzalez pleaded guilty to that charge.

Crazy. Very disrespectful to.

hahahahahahahaha, oh man that's hilarious. may be weird, but it's still funny as hell.

feedyourhead · 05-09-2008, 05:16 AM

that's absolutely terrible. and of course disgusting.

peace n love · 05-09-2008, 05:18 AM

no worse than using animal bones, it's no longer a person, just the matter that makes up bone. nothing "nasty" about it if you think it over. plus, it's better being used as a bone than just laying in the ground useless and whatnot.

Why do you think it's funny? I can't get that angle no matter which way I look at it. I get the "crazy", the "disgusting", the "disrespectful", and the "weird". I can't find the "funny".

it doesn't take much thinking for me to decide that i wouldn't put any animal bone in my mouth that i found in the dirt, either, but okay...

it never sits well with me when i hear of any grave being disrupted, especially if it was for something as stupid as trying to smoke pot out of a human skull for a laugh or whatever. and it's not like the grave was disrupted due to some natural cause. they physically went in, dug up a little boy's body, took his skull and smoked marijuana out of it. maybe the 'useless' argument would be appropriate if it were a piece of trash, but it was a person that was buried for a reason and i still think it's terrible no matter how long he had been dead.

i would personally love a human skull to smoke out of. all i'm saying is that you shouldn't be so fast in judging someone's actions before giving it some thought. they harmed nothing, they really did nothing wrong, they were making use of what was there in the earth, free of claim and possession, and people think it's disrespectful and terrible, maybe even morbid. we just don't see eye to eye, you and i.

and buzzby, it's funny that i opened this expecting to see something about a grateful dead bong, and instead see that someone has made a bong from a corpse, pretty surprising.

Doc Mitch · 05-09-2008, 06:49 AM

i think digging up the body was pretty disrespectful, but other than that i dont have a problem with it. id smoke out of a skull bong. its just another bone.

feedyourhead · 05-09-2008, 06:52 AM

well, if you don't believe that digging up corpses is wrong and that they are there for the taking, then we must live in different worlds

what further 'thought' should we give their actions? they dug up a dead child, severed his head with a gardening tool, and proceeded to smoke weed out of it. the article was pretty cut-and-dry.
