A photo that accompanied a newspaper obituary apparently led to an attempt last weekend to dig up the grave of a 20-year-old woman who was killed in a motorcycle accident Aug. 27.
Three men charged with taking part in the attempted grave robbery had no connection to Laura Tennessen, other than seeing her obituary, Grant County Sheriff Keith Govier said.
Twin brothers Alexander and Nicholas Grunke, 20, of Ridgeway, and Dustin Radke, 20, of Dodgeville, made initial appearances in Circuit Court Tuesday on charges of attempted third-degree sexual assault and attempted misdemeanor theft.
Radke said Grunke asked him to help because he wanted to dig up Tennessen's body for sex, and the three had stopped at a store on the way to the cemetery to buy condoms.
"Just when you think you've seen it all, something strange like this happens," the sheriff said.
