Two friends decided to take their dead friend on a night out.

Some people believe in friendship to the end, while some others think that friendship goes beyond that; well Denver residents Robert Young (43) and Mark Rubinson (25) certainly must have thought that way!

On the 28th of August Jeffrey Jarrett suddenly and unexpectedly died, prior to death Jarrett offered long-time friend Young a place to stay. Young arrived at the house of Jarrett and found him dead. But it seems that a night on the town was on the cards, and for Young that seemed too important to put off just because of the death of a friend. So with the help of Rubinson, they put Jarrett into the back seat of a car and headed of on their night out.

Not giving Jarrett the send of he truly deserved, they left him in the car, as they hit two bars, before heading somewhere to eat and end then ending up at a strip joint. During the process of the night they decided that Jarrett would fund their night out to the sum of $400. 

At 4am when the night was well and truly over, they decided to report the death to the authorities.

Young and Rubinson have been charged with identity theft, criminal impersonation, and abuse of a corpse. They have been released on bail, scheduled for a court hearing early next month.
