The Man Who Loved the Dead

(Cincinnati, Ohio) A 55-year-old former night attendant at the Hamilton County morgue, Kenneth Douglas, is currently serving a prison sentence for abusing the corpse of a nearly beheaded 19-year-old female murder victim.

Now he has been indicted on two more counts of abuse of a corpse after his semen was found in the bodies of two women killed in 1991.

According to Hamilton County Prosecutor Joe Deters,
"This guy's just a pig. I can't explain why someone would do something like this. ... This is off-the-charts weird." [...]

Deters said he was stunned by so many aspects of the case: sex with a corpse, sex with violently mutilated or damaged bodies, sex with dozens of bodies.

"Frankly, it's frightening. His numbers when he's (talked to authorities) go from one to three or four to 'a lot' to maybe over a hundred," Deters said, quoting Douglas.

"I think it's fair to speculate that he's been doing this all the time, when he's able and had the opportunity."
Douglas was initially caught when his DNA in a database was matched with semen found in a corpse.
