Re: Morgue tech admits to sex abuse of 92-year-old woman's corpse
A young laboratory technician accused of sexually abusing the corpse of a 92-year-old woman in a Teaneck hospital morgue pleaded guilty today to desecration of human remains.
Anthony Merino, 25, of Manhattan faces up to seven years in prison when he is sentenced for the second-degree crime on July 11. But under a complicated plea agreement negotiated by his attorney, Savyon Grant, and the Bergen County Prosecutor's Office, Merino could file a motion to have his sentence reconsidered and be placed on five years' probation upon serving 11 months, 15 days in prison.
Merino was arrested last October when a security guard observed him engaged in sexual activity with the deceased woman inside a morgue at Holy Name Hospital in Teaneck. Merino was a newly employed, part-time lab tech at the hospital at the time.
As part of his plea, Merino agreed to undergo a full psychological evaluation and will be prohibited from working at a hospital, morgue, cemetery or anywhere else where he could come into contact with human remains.
