Don’t forget “Im My Own Grandpa”.
Or a game show - The Family Lewd
I never was able to watch SVU. But the original L&O usually get the basic statutes right. It actually led to confusion because at times they used New York specific laws when the concepts weren’t exactly like that in most other states.
Sorry, it didn’t make the finals. 
Oh, that one really needs a cite.
In 49 states it’s illegal for 2 (or more) consenting adults to engage in sex if one of them is paying the other one.
I don’t think that’ll put their ‘Star’ on Hollywood Boulevard.
Maybe a few blood drops though…
Can’t answer this properly from work, but I did a thread on it at the time. A’ll post something this afternoon. I do recall that the first judge’s opinion (throwing out a case against 3 guys who dug up a corpse) was upheld by an appeals court too.
My brother was a Criminal Justice major although he never worked in that industry later. Back in college he did 2 summers of internship with the local County Attorney’s office, AKA the public prosecutor’s office.
I once asked him what the experience taught him. His answer, in a disgusted tone of voice
Anecdotal I know.
Cool, a whole new genre of realty tv series; parents and children, brothers and sisters, cousins, uncles and nieces or nephews, etc.
The thread I did on this back in 2006 – very funny, if I do say so myself. In post #139 I linked to the story that the case against 3 men who dug up a corpse to have sex with it had been thrown out by a judge who ruled that what they were attempting to do wasn’t against the law.
Unfortunately, time has rendered the link broken.
The next year I did another thread about a prisoner who was appealing his conviction for fucking a dead deer, based on the ruling above. His lawyer was arguing that since it wasn’t illegal to have sex with a human corpse, it was fundamentally unfair to convict someone from having sex with a deer corpse.
But damn it the links are too old to work there either.
I found a reference to Boyo Jim’s case in this article from 2007.
What does it say about people that the article is careful to not state what the nine states are?
How can it be illegal to re-use a casket, but not the corpse?
50 really. It is not legal in all of Nevada.
As could easily be predicted, the news story is generating the need for legislators to feel the need to put their name on a bill. I predict no one will vote against and be labeled as pro-incest.
Here is a good overview of the topic. TL;DR incest was illegal in NJ until 1979 when the new criminal code was enacted and the old law was not carried over.
