37-year-old man caught stealing Game Boy from teen's casket

When we heard about that one guy who robbed a hospital's supply of game consoles intended for young cancer patients, we thought, "Man, who could sink lower than that?"  A 37-year-old Pennsylvania man comes pretty close, after he was caught stealing a Game Boy from a deceased teen's casket. 

Bradley McCombs died on Christmas in a fatal car accident at just 17, and he was to be buried with a few personal effects.  Then relatives noticed several items missing from the boy's casket: a Game Boy.  An uncle suspected Jody Lynn Bennett, the aforementioned middle-aged man, and approached Bennett before he could drive off.

Of course, Bennett denied having the Game Boy when accused of taking it, but the uncle saw the handheld in the thief's car, at which point Bennett handed it back.  As relatives were returning the stolen item to the casket, they realized a Game Boy Light and three games were also gone.

The boy's father called Bennett afterwards about his son's belongings and was told not to call again by the suspected thief, who now faces "misdemeanor counts of desecration, theft or sale of venerated objects; abuse of a corpse; institutional vandalism; theft; receiving stolen property; disorderly conduct and harassment." 

His criminal record indicates a history of alcohol and drug related offenses.  Bennett's aunt, whose family is close friends with the McCombs, commented, "He's just messed up."
