2 Arrested After Body Reportedly Driven To Bars

In Denver, Colorado two men are accused of using dead man's credit card at bars. Denver.com posted this news story about two men who are accused of transporting a body of a friend to various bars and using his credit card. The men put their friend's body in a car and went bar hopping before returning him to his home and notifying the authorities.

My first thought was is this for real? I am shocked that this dead man's supposed friends loaded his body and drove him around while they bar hopped. As if it isn't bad enough that they put him in their car while they went to bars, they used their dead friends credit card to fund their evening.

If I were to find my friend dead my first thought would not be to load them up in my car and go drinking and I certainly wouldn't use their credit cards. The article stated that they went to a few bars then took the dead friend back to his place and put him in bed then went and got gas and a burrito with his credit card. After that they were at another bar where they flagged down a police officer outside the bar and told him they thought their friend was dead. The police went to check it out and found his body. The article compares this incident to the movie "Weekend at Bernies".

These men had to know he was dead, I just wonder what they were thinking! They keep referring to these men as his friends but their actions don't speak of friendship at all.  If these were his only friends, perhaps he is better off.
