beefchandler: What are some the laws regarding post-mortem Coitus?
My wife of 27 years and I were going over our will. We have both decided that we would be mummified, in the way of Jeremy Bentham. This is perfectly legal and more common than you might expect. My wife and I agreed that if the other passes away we will not remarry. I was simply wondering if their was a law against her carrying on her wifley duties post-mortem?

As far as I know, necrophilia is illegal in the States.
only four US states have laws explicitly banning necrophilia. The rest have a “hodge-podge” of wording that could cover necrophilia, including crimes against “chastity, morality, decency and good order” in Massachusetts and “unnatural intercourse” in Mississippi.
In those states that do have laws covering necrophilia, the punishment can vary widely. In Nevada, for example, a person who “commits a sexual penetration on the dead body of a human being” can face life imprisonment and a $ 20,000 fine.
