Who knows? Given the fact that he was buried with a pack of smokes in his hand, maybe he really would be fine with it.
According to Huffington Post, a Lancaster woman’s lawyer says his client shouldn’t be charged with anything after digging up her father’s grave because she “did it with respect” and “he would be OK with it.”
Fifty-two-year-old Melanie Nash broke into her father’s vault earlier this year in search of his “real will.” Naturally, Nash didn’t receive anything from her father Eddie when he died in 2004, and she had been jonesing to dig him up ever since to prove that her sister Susie hid the will in an effort to get everything.
Police found Mr. Nash’s vault at Colebrook Village Cemetery cracked and remains sorted through in May. Nash eventually admitted to breaking into her father’s casket along with four others but was disappointed to find he was buried with a pack of cigarettes in his hand instead of the will.
Let’s be honest: If your one request when you’re buried is that a pack of smokes has to be placed in your hand, odds are you’re a Marlboro Reds kind of guy.
