Kentucky Man Arrested For Trying To Dig Up Dead Dad So He Could Argue With His Corpse

I’m going to be honest: I think the corpse would have won the argument.

According to The Daily Beast, an intoxicated 44-year-old Kentucky man reportedly went to the Pilot Baptist Church cemetery in Stanford Monday night and tried to dig up his dead dad “so the two could settle a father-son argument.”

Yeah, even in Kentucky, you can’t do that.

Pastor Greg Haynes said he talked with Michael May as the man broke ground in front of the tombstone belonging to his father, who had been dead for some 30 years, and May told him he wanted to settle an argument that his dad apparently took to his grave.

“He said, ‘Daddy didn’t do things right, and I need to dig him up and get him into heaven,'” Haynes said. “I said, ‘After 30 years, you’re a little late on that.'”

By the time police arrived, May had already dug out a 2-by-3 foot chunk of soil, but he never made it all the way to the coffin to have that face-to-decayed face chat with his old man. He was arrested and charged with violating a grave, public intoxication and possession of weed, which in all honesty must have been the best shit ever, man.
