Can you rape a dead person?

Rape (noun)

1. To force (another person) to submit to sex acts, especially sexual intercourse; commit rape on.
2. To seize and carry off by force.
3. To plunder or pillage.

The basic question is, even if a person is dead, is something still against their will? Or is a dead person only a body, an empty vessel of what once carried a human being, making it impossible to rape them as they are simply an object?

Never mind if you'd actually want to rape a dead person, I'm just interested in how people view the dead.

I personally look at the human body as a vessel yes but more like a temple. A place that doesn't define the person but represents them in the most basic physical form. When someone dies all that is left is that temple. It's a shrine to everything that person was as we associate that body with so many memories and personality traights. It represents everything that person was and when that's all that's left. I can't imagine any other thing to do other than to treat that body with total respect. It's not just an empty shell of things that where with no value, it's a testament to all that person was.

They consented prior?
How the hell otherwise?

When you die. You leave your body.

Therefore, although still disgusting. You'd be raping a dead human. Disgusting.

yes , while the crime technically isn't rape, necrophillia is illegal, any sex with a corpse is illegal, even if they consented to it.

like the german cannibal man of last year

I met him in a swamp down in Dagoba
Where it bubbles all the time like a giant carbonated soda
S O D A, soda

I saw the little runt sitting there on a log
I asked him his name and in a raspy voice he said "Yoda"
Y O D A, Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

Well, I've been around, but I ain't never seen
A guy who looks like a muppet, but he's wrinkled and green
Oh, my Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

Well, I'm not dumb, but I can't understand
How he can lift me in the air just by raising his hand
Oh, my Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

Well, I left home just a week before
And I've never ever been a Jedi before
But Obi Wan, he set me straight, of course
He said, "Go to Yoda and he'll show you the Force"

Well I'm not the kind that would argue with Ben
So it looks like I'm gonna start all over again
With my Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

So I used the Force
I picked up a box
I lifted some rocks
While I stood on my head
Well, I won't forget what Yoda said

He said, "Luke, stay away from the darker side
And if you start to go astray, let the Force be your guide"
Oh, my Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

"I know Darth Vader's really got you annoyed
But remember, if you kill him, then you'll be unemployed"
Oh, my Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

Well, I heard my friends really got in a mess
So I'm gonna have to leave Yoda, I guess
But I know that I'll be coming back some day
I'll be playing this part 'till I'm old and gray

The long-term contract that I had to sign
Says I'll be making these movies till the end of time
With my Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

Oh hell no, I really don't want to. I was just interested in the question, moral grounds and what people think of the dead.

I wonder how odd I am.

Grixy, you have been more then a little odd of late.

I don't think you can rape a dead person though. No, really; I don't think you've got the guts!

Ahahahah

If you were worthy of a reply that wasn't solely to make me laugh, honestly, I'd make one.
