Fake body turns out to be real.

A group of students from a criminology class were on a field trip from St Thomas Aquinas High School in Florida when they made a strange discovery............ a real dead body!

Teacher Sue Messenger was famous for the life-like clues she always put out on these excursions and her students were expecting the usual skeletons and other evidence.

Student Juan Cantor saw the body first and thought his teacher had done a really good job of making it look real. It wasn't until the smell hit him that he knew there was something rotten in Denmark, or in this case, the "crime scene."

Police called to the scene determined that the "body" was that of a homeless man who had died of natural causes.

Six students quit the course!
