Dr Remigius Nwabueze, Associate Professor of Law and member of HEAL within Southampton Law School, was recently interviewed in a story by the Tampa Bay Times about a controversial case where the police used a dead man’s finger in an attempt to access his phone. In speaking about the incidence, Dr Nwabueze commented that “The law has been most cruel, really unforgiving to a dead person. It provides no entitlement or legal rights after death to a deceased person.”
