A hospital security guard has been arrested after he was caught satisfying his necrophilia at a Memphis area hospital on Wednesday, police say.
Cameron Wright, 23, is accused of violating the body of 37-year-old April Parham at St. Francis Hospital in Memphis, Tenn.
Parham had died suddenly just hours earlier and her body was being prepared for organ donation when Wright allegedly carried out his crime, her family said.
April Parham passed away suddenly on Wednesday morning at the age of 37. Her body was being prepared for organ donation that evening when Wright allegedly violated it
Two other security guards walked into the body storage room on Wednesday night and saw Wright having sex with the corpse. He was arrested and charged with abuse of a corpse, and has also been fired by his employer.
Police say he has admitted to his crime, and he is scheduled to make his first court appearance via video-link on Friday.
The dead woman’s father James Parham is calling for someone to be held accountable for the defilement of his daughter’s body
It is not clear how April Parham died, but posts on her family’s social media pages reveal the death was sudden and ‘completely unexpected.’
Now, as well as dealing with the sudden loss of a loved one, Parham’s family are also trying to cope with this news.
Her father James Parham in an interview said: ‘After you pass, we think finally she’s not suffering, she’s not hurting no more and to find out this. It’s devastating. It hurts.’
‘What we need is some answers. We need some concrete answers, and somebody held accountable, he added
‘That is what we need right now. It’s hard enough.’
Saint Francis Hospital-Memphis said Wright had undergone a background check and was contracted through U.S. Security Associates.
Cameron Wright was properly vetted before taking his job and has since been fired, according to St Francis Hospital, where the alleged attack occurred
A statement from the hospital said: ‘Treating those we serve with dignity and respect is our top priority.
‘The behavior of this individual does not represent what our hospital stands for, and these actions are completely unacceptable.
‘We are saddened by this incident, and we are empathetic and sympathetic to the family of the patient.
