Man caught having sex with woman’s corpse charged with rape and murder

Macabre incident outside Georgia homeless shelter turns into homicide investigation after cops make initial arrest for necrophilia.

Some acts seem so murky to start with one hopes they can’t get any darker.

Yet hidden layers can lurk beneath the most aberrant of crimes.

Police arrested a man in Macon, Georgia, on Sunday for something already disturbing enough: having sex in public with a woman’s dead body.

However, after doubting foul play at first, they now think he was also responsible for the victim’s demise.

Deputies arrived at the city’s Daybreak homeless shelter just after 4 a.m. Sunday morning, following a complaint that two people were having sex on the front steps.

What they found appeared to be two people “having intercourse,” according to a media release from the Bibb County Sheriff’s Office.

But after asking the man to get dressed, officers discovered that the woman was “unresponsive.”

Paramedics later established she “had been deceased for some time.”

The man, identified as 55-year-old Kenny Obyran Whitehead, was initially taken into custody on a necrophilia charge. Investigators also stated ahead of an autopsy that there was no evidence of “any foul play.”

However, Whitehead now faces new charges for the woman’s rape and murder following an announcement on Monday afternoon that her death had been ruled a homicide.

Whitehead is currently being held in the Bibb County Jail without bond while the “case is still being actively investigated.”

The sheriff’s office have declined to release further details about the victim “due to the charges and nature of this incident.”
