Every state has different laws, but I am willing to bet this is a felony in every state. What state do you live in? Do a search on your state laws concerning the treatment of human remains. Print it out and take it to your friend. Ask your friend how she would feel if that were her loved one perched on the post! Are you the only one that ever sees this fencepost? What if this is a murder victim and your friend becomes a suspect because of this morbid behavior?
