In 897 Pope Stephen VI had his predecessor Formosus exhumed, dressed in papal vestments and propped on a throne to stand trial. A deacon answered for the corpse. The verdict was guilty, the blessing fingers were severed, and the body went into the Tiber — then the Lateran basilica collapsed and Rome turned on Stephen. The Cadaver Synod, the strangest trial in the history of the Catholic Church, and why the Vatican's official position on prosecuting the dead is still contradictory.
