3 Texas Teens Exhume Body Of A Young Boy and Make A Bong From the Skull

Posted by Juan

What a bizarre week of news.

GraveDiggers

Did you hear about this? Three Texas teenagers allegedly exhumed a corpse, severed its head, and used the skull as a homemade weed bong. Police in Humble, Texas (what an ironic name) learned of the bizarre incident while investigating an unrelated credit card heist executed by the grave diggers. Their victim was Willie Simms, a young child died in the 1920s. When police first questioned one of the defendants Matthew Gonzalez, he reportedly got so nervous that he threw up on his plate of food he had been eating.

Each of the defendants was charged with misdemeanor abuse of a corpse on Wednesday. I guess they were already so high they never got around to smoking so no drug charges. Photos courtesy of The Smoking Gun

They could have taken a glass, some foil, a rubber band and some water. Called it a day. And if you didn’t have a rubber band… use tape.

As a former West Virginia Univ. student I’ve seen it all. Apples, gravity bongs made from 2 liter soda bottles…you could use anything. Obviously these kids had bigger issue. I’m sure there are some health issue there.

how is severing a head from a corpse only a misdemeanor? I’m feeling like there should be amore severe charge for that.

I guess its like cutting down a tree no? I mean there’s no real body. Its just bone…not even a corpse.

What kind of a high do you get from smoking drugs through a human skull? They must have been looking for some sort of supernatural high. Freaks is the word.
