Denver men accused of taking friend's corpse on boys' night out ​

TWO Colorado men stand accused of multiple offenses after driving their dead friend's corpse to a pair of Denver nightspots and using his ATM card to buy themselves drinks, the Denver Post reported yesterday.



Prosecutors have charged Robert Jeffrey Young, 43, and Mark Rubinson, 25, with abusing a corpse, identity theft and criminal impersonation.



The men found their friend Jeffrey Jarrett unresponsive at his house late on August 27, before loading him into Rubinson's car and taking him to a local bar and grill, where they drank on his tab.



They then went to another bar, before returning Jarrett's body to his home and continuing their night out using their dead friend's ATM card to withdraw money. On their way home, they flagged down a cop and told him they thought their friend was dead at his house.



Neither Young nor Rubinson has been charged with Jarrett's death, the cause of which is still to be determined.



This is a bizarre and unfortunate crime, said Denver Police Department spokesman Sonny Jackson. This isn't anything you want to have happen to a loved one. You want them treated with respect in death.

This is beyond bizarre. This is one of the sickest stories I've read in a long time. They call themselves friends of Jeffrey Jarrett. Well hell with friends like them, who needs enemies. For all these psychos knew Jeffrey while unresponsive, could still have been alive when they found him. Instead of calling 911 and the police, they decide to take him bar hopping with them.

If they weren't going to call for help, why not just take the ATM card and leave? I also don't understand why on their way home, they flagged down a cop and told him they thought their friend was dead at his house. I also don't understand how the police found out that the psychos took Jeffrey bar hopping with them.

At any rate, I'm glad they have been charged and hope they get a stiff (no pun intended) jail sentence.
