COLUMBUS, Ga. (AP) A homeless man broke into a funeral home and had sex with a woman's body, police said Friday. <br /> <br /> Domonique Smith, 26, was arrested Feb. 9 when he was found with a bike stolen from the Hill Watson Peoples Funeral Service, and further investigation revealed that a body there had been disturbed during the burglary, police said. <br /> <br /> ``The results of our investigation and the forensic examination gave us probable cause to believe that this individual had indeed sexually assaulted a dead body,'' said Columbus Police Maj. Gil Slouchick. <br /> <br /> Capt. Gordon Griswould told the Ledger-Enquirer of Columbus that Smith was found in a vacant home with other stolen property, including TVs and guns. <br /> <br /> Smith pleaded guilty to burglary, entering an unoccupied dwelling, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and theft by receiving stolen property, according to the newspaper. He is currently in jail. <br /> <br /> It's unclear if Smith has an attorney. He is expected to appear in court on the necrophilia charge Monday.
