Nature vs Narcissism · 2025-06-16

Karen Margaret Greenlee; born in 1958, was an apprentice embalmer in Sacramento, California who sexually assaulted over 40 deceased individuals. She called herself the “morgue rat”. She is considered as the "best-known modern practitioner of necrophilia", and her case was the subject of much research due to her sex as only ten percent of known necrophiles are women.

The first 4 ½ minutes is an announcement about this series and how it came about. We start talking about Greenlee at the 5 minute mark. Feel free to skip forward, but if you do, you may be lost for this particular series.

Fun Fact: Did you know that necrophilia did not become illegal until 2003 in the United Kingdom?? Did you know that in the United States though, there is no federal legislation specifically barring sex with a corpse. However, multiple states have their own laws. In Ohio, it is a Felony in the fifth degree. It appears as though the states that do not have legislation against it are: Massachusetts, New Mexico, South Dakota, Vermont, and Virginia. #TheMoreYouKnow.

Nature vs Narcissism

Nature vs Narcissism is a true crime/comedy podcast based in Cincinnati, Ohio where Heather and her guests discuss true crimes and the narcissists who commit them. Sometimes we have alcohol and sometimes things get weird. Relaunching on our 4th PodBirthday (Oct 22, 2021), the structure changed a lot. Every episode is different and every episode is entertaining! We will delve into whether we think nature made the criminals commit these heinous acts, or if it's simply their narcissism getting the best of them. Keep in mind, this podcast is strictly for entertainment purposes and is in no way a professional diagnosis of the subjects discussed.
