Did you hear the one about the guy with Daddy issues?

Detroit police found the body of a 93-year-old man today -- stuffed inside a freezer in his son's basement -- after investigators said the son stole the body and casket from a Detroit cemetery on Monday.

The body of Clarence Bright was found in a home in the 4700 block of Eastlawn, Sgt. Eren Stephens said. It was in a new freezer in the basement, according to a police source.

The man's 48-year-old son reportedly told family members on Monday that he stole his father's body from Gethsemane Cemetery on the city's east side that morning to resurrect him through prayer, the source said.

Family members reached at Bright's duplex on Garland said the issue was a family matter. They said tensions were high and declined further comment.

The man's son was born when he was 45 according to my math. That's a bit late in life.

As to the story, it's pretty bizarre, but it's better that ill people do this than things that involve Bushmasters.

I hope the family is able to regain peace again in the passing of Mr. Bright.

Ironic that this should take place in the D. Where fathers day must be mass confusion.

We have had similar in AUS, the children keep collecting the pension check and acted as if the father/mother was still alive

Didnt take them out of the cemetery, just didnt tell anybody

Just weird, the world has gone mad!
