I think thats a lie elvislady, someone somewhere has said that and I dont think its true. I don't know the US laws but in the UK you can't keep anyones organs without explicit permission of the next of kin and there's no way Vernon would have allowed that. The only exception would be if there was a legal reason for keeping them, but as the autopsy was concluded as a "case closed" there would have been no call to and even if there had been they wouldn't be kept for near 30 years. [I know these things because of a recent controversy I was involved in with some parishioners concerning the organs of deceased children at a local children's hospital which were kept without consent post mortem.]
If the law is the same, and many of them are, theres no way Elvis's organs are in a jar somewhere. I think we can rest easy that this is tittle tattle and that Elvis rests in peace complete - where he should be allowed to stay.

[riley]

ElvisPriestly,

Really reasurring to read.
And I completely agree here.

Please let Elvis rest in peace. God saw he needed the rest and called upon him.

NOthing will bring him back to us so at least let him rest in dignity.

If the Baptist Memorial Hospital doesn't exist anymore, then please tell why do they have a website?

Here it is: http://www.baptistonline.org/facilities/memphis/ (http://www.baptistonline.org/facilities/memphis/)

The only thing that doesn't exist is the main building itself. They have a new main building. The one which Elvis was pronounced dead at was demolished in November 6, 2005.


Elvis_Priestly - it depends on the matter of why would they keep certain organs of a person. No permission is needed at all. They have to have permission to keep the body itself and that is all. The rest the hospital can keep for future research. Example: Albert Einstein's brain was cut into pieces and display through out the world. Adolf Hilter's brain was given to Stalin after his body was found. The rest was burned and buried. Napoleon's private part is in a jar in a person's house who bought it at a auction. Would you like more? I can go all day if need to be.:D :P


EDITED: I type all of that real fast and words was missing so I have inserted those words that was missing. Sorry......:P I was doped up on allergy medicine at the time.;)

[poormansgold]

More turns and dead ends of Elvis Death, let Elvis Rest In Peace.

[KPM]

I don't have a clue about what can be legally kept or not. It seems it would probably very from state to state in the US(unless theres a national law for such things) or country to country outside the US.

[ajr]

http://www.memphismedicalcenter.com/implosion.cfm

It's a law that all organs are to be buried with the body.....unless there's an on going investigation into the death. The case was closed.

Hitler - they can't even prove that was his body they found. The Commies had to come up with something. It's probabaly the body of some low ranking Nazi rather than Hitler.

I guess you never seen the pictures and so on. They have prove it was Hilter and his wife. Also, back in 2000 they ran test on a sample of the brain and did DNA testing on the relatives of Hilter and they match. Hilter's brain is in a research place in Moscow as of now. The History Channel showed it back in 2001, 2002 and 2003.

Umm, I can't really say. Elvis is big all over the USA. Maybe when he was alive he was bigger in the Southern States than the rest of the USA. But now, I think he is big all over now.

Have seen the pictures. There is considerable doubt and questions still reamining regarding that. Stalin believed Hitler was alive and accused the allies of harbouring Hitler.

Ummm, wrong again. Stalin told President Truman that Russian officiers didn't capture and kill Hilter and that his body was not found at all. But Truman and Churchill had evidence that Stalin did know where the body was at and that Stalin had gotten Hilter's Brain along with a few other organs. Stalin knew that Truman wanted Hilter's body display.
Hilter's body is now buried along with his wife what is now a parking lot in Berlin, Germany. That is not a urban myth at all. Even documents from Stalin own files told where his body was at. Better yet even documents that is in Germany tells where his body is at. Those documents gives the same location.


This is info from Wikipedia which is the same info on a book I have of Hilter:
On 30 April 1945, after intense street-to-street combat, when Soviet troops were spotted within a block or two of the Reich Chancellory in the city centre, Hitler committed suicide in the Führerbunker. He did so by means of a self-delivered shot to the head while simultaneously biting into a cyanide capsule. Hitler's body and that of Eva Braun (his long-term mistress whom he had married the day before) were put in a bomb crater, partially burned with gasoline by Führerbunker aides and hastily buried in the Chancellory garden as Russian shells poured down and Red Army infantry continued to advance only two or three hundred metres away. He also had his dog Blondi poisoned some time before to test the poison he and Eva Braun were going to take.
When Russian forces reached the Chancellory, they found his body and an autopsy was performed using dental records (and German dental assistants who were familiar with them) to confirm the identification. To avoid any possibility of creating a potential shrine, the remains of Hitler and Braun were repeatedly moved, then secretly buried by SMERSH at their new headquarters in Magdeburg. In April 1970, when the facility was about to be turned over to the East German government, the remains were reportedly exhumed, thoroughly cremated, and the ashes finally dumped unceremoniously into the Elbe. According to the Russian Federal Security Service, a fragment of human skull stored in its archives and displayed to the public in a 2000 exhibition came from the remains of Hitler's body uncovered by the Red Army in Berlin, and is all that remains of Hitler; however, the authenticity of the skull has been challenged by many historians and researchers.


What it doesn't say is that tests was done on the skull fragments with DNA testing to the family of Hilter that they match and the info on the remains being dumped into the Elbe has been proven false.

[0349054]

Right. Don't exactly agree with you on any of that.

The Russians claimed to have found Hitler and they began an Autopsy on him. A forensic pathology team headed by Russian Chief Forensic Pathologist Dr. Faust Sherovsky of the 1st Belorussian Front, aided by Anatomical Pathologist Major Anna Marants, performed an autopsy on what was believed to be Hitlers body on 8 May 1945.


On 6 June 1945 the Russians, through staff officers of Zhukov, assured Eisenhower's staff that Hitler?s body had been discovered, exhumed, and scientifically identified.

The Russians, up until 7 June 1945, were still admitting to the finding of Hitler?s
body.

However, on 9 June 1945 Zhukov held a press conference in Berlin, where he stated to the press corps that Hitler?s whereabouts was a mystery.

Zhukov stated "and I am not able to make a positive statement about his fate or where he could at the moment be."

Approximately two months after this press conference, Stalin pulled Zhukov out of Berlin, where Zhukov was "reassigned" and effectively put on ice. Theories abound as to why Stalin apparently ordered the reversal of the information regarding Hitler?s body, but the official position of the Russians, as of 9 June 1945, was that Hitler had most probably escaped Berlin and was somewhere in hiding.

Why the reversal of information on the part of the Russians?

Because, during the autopsy, shards of glass had been found in Hitler's mouth and residues of cyanide had been detected in the body tissues of Hitler during the autopsy in Buch, suggesting suicide by cyanide poisoning.

Yet many Fuhrerbunker Germans were telling the Russians that Hitler had shot himself with a pistol.

This led to the belief by Stalin that the Russian pathologists had botched the autopsy, as the body on 8 May did not show signs of a shooting (parts of Hitler's skull showing evidence of a gunshot wound were missing from Hitler's head and were not found until after the completion of the autopsy and the removal of Hitler's body by to Magdeburg for burial).

The Russian unit that was in control of Hitler?s corpse was instructed by the NKVD to take the bodies with them as they moved from Berlin to their headquarters at Magdeburg. As the move was made over a period of time, they temporarily buried Hitler in different locations as the charred bodies were now rotting badly. When the unit finally got to their headquarters in Magdeburg, Hitler and Eva were permanently buried.The bodies were exhumed and finally destroyed without trace in 1970.

I believe this burial site remained a secret until very recently, however it was only a temporary burial site and the remains of the two were completely destroyed and disposed of in a river.

Just to note...

That Wiki is one of the worst sources for accuarte information available.

The Dental records for Hitler were supplied by people who had worked on his teeth in the past. These dentists, due to the bombing of Berlin, provided records of Hitler's teeth from memory to the Russians to begin with.

But I have said that info also comes from a book I have in my collection. The dental records were not by memory at all. The records were found back in the 70s and ran test on both the skull fragments and family living and they match. Copies of the dental records were copied along with several pages of documents from Hitler's files and so on and put into a book all about Hitler.

What would you like to say next?:D I can go on all day long on Hitler. So please lets get back to Elvis topic.

I assure you I can also. But your references to Wikipedia has lost my interest in the topic! Elvis is the best thing to talk about on the message board.

* BTW - The initial ID of dental records came from the dentists memory. If your book doesent contain it and Wiki does neither, I suggest a trip to your local bookshop for a worthwhile book on Hitler.


Now...Elvis from here on out!

If they were from the memory as you said then please tell why History Channel provided the actual dental records themselves. My book says that orignially yes, dental records were proved by memory but the actual dental records was found in the 70s so test was redone to see if they match and they was. If you would like to know more on Hitler. I would suggust to go to my friend's house to know more about Hitler than you do. Because he is a member of the Hitler family. Tests were done on him to and has the proof of that as well.

[Dovey]

This was emailed to me today... one thing is for sure... someone has some pretty good money... because Mr Bailey is not a cheap lawyer.. Dovey

WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!! This CANNOT be true! Anyone know more about it?


"Elvis to be Exhumed?"

(AP)... A suit filed in the Superior Court of Tennesse may permit the
exhumation of the late King of Rock and Roll Elvis Presley. The suit
(docket # 06-08 38116) has been filed anonymously by a couple in
Germantown TN in order to see if that is Elvis who is buried in the
Meditation Garden at Graceland. The couple has retained famed
lawyer F. Lee Bailey to represent their case.

The suit contends that the public may not have been told the
truth due to the suspicious nature of the circumstances surrounding
the death of one of the world's greatest entertainers. In an interview
on the Larry King Show Mr. Bailey said, "We all know about the 900
pound casket and the suppossed air conditioning unit, but what about
all the other variables.

"For example, Mr. Bailey continued, there was a large sum of
money transferred from the Memphis Bank and Trust which we all
know handled Elvis' assets, in early August of 1977, to a bank in the
state of Michigan. We have employees of the bank, who after years of
silence, are coming forward to support this claim. The fact that it was
Michigan is relevant because of the tremendous number of sightings of
Elvis in Michigan".

When pressed by Larry King for more Mr. Bailey continued.
"Larry, we have very credible evidence from a former IRS agent and of
course at this time we can't give his name, that Elvis Presley and not
the Elvis Presley Estate has been paying income taxes since 1977.
This former agent had access to returns of celebrities and very rich
people and came across this highly sensitive and classified material
inadvertently".

F. Lee Bailey who achieved notoriety in the 1950's defending
Sam Sheppard and then in the 1990's with O.J.Simpson continued.
"Larry that last picture of Elvis that his cousin took for the National
Enquirer looks more like Elvis in his twenties. We have subpeonaed
the Enquirer for the negative, in order to run a neutron activation anal-
ysis in order to determine the makeup of the object in the photograph".

"Larry, if you add up the numbers of Elvis' death date 8-16-1977
it totals 2001. His theme song was 2001 Space Odyssey. I'd say
that in itself is an odyssey".

Mr. Bailey then stated, "The US Mail continues to deliver all
of Elvis' mail to Graceland and not one single letter has ever been
Returned to Sender. What does that tell you Larry? Larry they said
we didn't have a chance defending O.J. and look what happened.
Johnnie Cochran said, "If it doesn't fit, you must acquit". Larry, I'm
no Johnnie Cochran but I will leave you with this, "If we can debunk
all this jive, I'd say there is a good chance that Elvis is alive!".

[Tommy]

Yes let's stick to Elvis(y)

[thehillbillycat]

It won't fall through because of several reasons. The main one is that the couple is not a member of Elvis' family. So there is no case what so ever. The only people who can have Elvis Exhume is the family and that is all. Case Closed........NEXT!!!!!!!(y)

Im going to leave Hitler to one side after this! I have no need to know more on Hitler, so I will have to turn down your friends house (presumabaly where Elvis footage is also hiding out) as for the dental records, as you will see, I said the initial ones were from memory, although you originally disputed that fact and now agree that they were. I refer to earlier posts by you.

Don't take it so much to heart!

Nope, different friend and I have the footage in my possessions now but it came out bad quality and the likely hood of you seeing it yourself is slim unless someone I give a copy of it too sends it to you. But that is another story. I am not agreeing with you at all. I said yes, it was originally from memory but the actual records was found in the 70s. I believe you need to watch History Channel more. They have even said it. Stick with Elvis now!!!!! Case Closed!!!!!! NEXT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[0349054]

Agree to disagree!

Besides this is an Elvis forum!

Maybe we should set up a Hitler one? On second thoughts.....nope!


Thanks for the contribution though, made for an interesting day at the office!

For sure....

Interesting read if you ask me, but we do NOT need it here!
So, give it a rest please.

[Diane]

This article is too wild to be true......no way, no how is Elvis alive and that anyone who is not family can have a body exhumed no matter how famous a lawyer they get. It's no one's business where he is actually buried but the family. I'm pretty sure that the only way the law could get around that is if there was new evidence that strongly suggested that Elvis was murdered and that didn't happen.

Actually I live in Michigan and would love to run across Elvis but no such luck. I read somewhere that he didn't like the winters here so I don't think this is the place he would hole up if he were alive. :) If someone is determined to go looking they should go to the hawaiian islands - he loved it there.

I wish the public would just give it up and let the poor man rest in peace once and for all. Diane

[ajr]

ElvisPresleyNews.com Elvis to be Exhumed - An article about the year 2000 attempt to have the body of Elvis Presley exhumed to determine the true cause of his death which was thought to be covered up by Vernon Presley and others.

As far as I know this has not been brought up again.
F.Lee Baily has not been on Larry King lately .;)

[meg]

Let Elvis Presley Rest In Peace: Some other websites are publishing complete twaddle about the possibility of Elvis' body being exhumed. They report that "A suit filed in the Superior Court of Tennessee may permit the exhumation of the late King of Rock and Roll Elvis Presley. The suit has been filed anonymously by a couple in Germantown TN in order to see if that is Elvis who is buried in the Meditation Garden at Graceland. The couple has retained famed lawyer F. Lee Bailey to represent their case. The suit contends that the public may not have been told the truth due to the suspicious nature of the circumstances surrounding the death of one of the world's greatest entertainers."
This is ridiculous and vacuous news, since anyone can apply to a court for an 'exhumation order' however no court will allow it since Elvis Presley died on August 16th 1977, had a very public funeral and was seen interred by his family and friends.
Elvis Presley rests in peace, as he so deserves.
In EIN's recent fascinating interview with author Patrick Lacy he noted - "As with the entire death hoax theory, ?believers? offer up plenty of conjecture and speculation, but they do not offer substantive evidence. It is my position that there is not one shred of evidence to prove or even suggest that Elvis faked his death. As I write in the book, I?d be more than glad to consider any such evidence?if it is compelling, I?ll take a closer look?I?ll even change my mind if the evidence leads me to conclude that Elvis faked his death. But I doubt that evidence will be forthcoming.."
Go here to EIN's Patrick Lacy interview for more detailed information as well as links to our Elvis conspiracy pages. (News, Source: EIN)

[thehillbillycat]

The thing is the court will dismiss the case saying the couple has no case because they are not part of the family. Only family members have Elvis exhumed. Meaning Lisa and her kids since they are in the direct bloodline. Even cousins to Elvis won't have success since Elvis had Lisa. She has the right to have him exhumed or not.


Diane - On the comment "I'm pretty sure that the only way the law could get around that is if there was new evidence that strongly suggested that Elvis was murdered and that didn't happen." It is still up to the family to let the body be exhumed. When reading the law carefully. Since Elvis is buried on Graceland property and the property is owned by the family. The police has to get permission to dig him up since he isn't buried in a cemetery. Graceland is considered as private property when it comes to that and have to ask permission from the family meaning Lisa. Priscilla wouldn't count since she and Elvis was divorce in 1973 and is no longer part of the family by law. So it will then fall to Lisa to give permission.

[JDD]

Elvislennon, I can't really see Lisa agreeing to have him exhumed. For one, it would disturb the whole operation of the house, the tours, the landscaping would have to be upset, the whole reason Vernon had those big stones put on top is to dissuade future people from messing with the grave. Its wouldn't be
a small undertaking. It would turn off a lot of folks that they depend on for income. Heck people were ticked off just from them shutting things down for Bush.

I have seen this done a few times from Billy the Kid to Jesse James and now even Houdini's family is considering it but it almost never comes back with anything new. I wouldn't approve it for my Father and I'd fight anyone in court that tried.

No, I am saying that it is only up to her to have Elvis exhumed. No one else can sue the family to have him exhumed because they aren't part of the family. I am not saying that she will do it. I am saying that it is her call to have it done or not and no one else. If she decides to have it done then ok. If not, that is still ok because it is not up to me or anyone on here to have him exhumed, only family.

As for Billy The Kid and Jesse James there is good cause on that. In 1951 a old man claimed to be Jesse James. He looked like him and knew things that only Jesse James would know. Also in the early 1900s a man claimed to be Billy The Kid and that man too looked like Billy The Kid.

As for Houdini, he wasn't murdered as the relative says. Houdini died of peritonitis from a ruptured appendix. As for the family of Houdini, only the family can have him exhumed who is in the bloodline. George Hardeen (Great-Grandson of Theordore Hardeen who is Houdini's brother) is in the bloodline since he is the great nephew of Houdini. Jeff Blood who is Houdini's great nephew on his wife side and is not in the bloodline so he has no say in the matter. If Hardeen wants to see if he was murder or not then let him find out but he will find that Houdini died of peritonitis from a ruptured appendix.

This is the link where that post originated from. I forgot who used to have it.
But, they were talking about the article in 2000 . It looks like someone just hacked into that site to get it all started again.....:wacko:

A friend of mine said something that rings true with me. "If it is repeated three times, it suddenly appears to be what people consider the truth".

Well, Sunday is April Fools day. ;)

That's so hard to believe! :blink: Can it be just a publicity trick?

[Diane]

Elvislennon2004, thank you for clearing up the legal aspects for a situation like this - I wasn't sure if the family still had to give permission or not. Diane

[Shelly]

I think everyone needs to leave Elvis alone he paid his dues here on earth let him rest. If it is his organs that they have then more power to them. I feel, sorry for his family having to listen to this crap all the time. Leave him and his family alone. How would anyone feel if it was your family that this was happen to them. I know I would not like it. So leave them alone.

I have heard that is story is a hoax and that there is not truth at all to it.. Dovey ;)

[Tony Trout]

Relax...it's just a rumor, y'all...there's no way that anyone can have the body of Elvis exhumed (except for family members, of course--and I don't see that happenin' at this point)...plus, they wouldn't be able to get at the body (or what's left of the body) unless they used very heavy equipment and they would have to basically destroy the casket to even open it.....

ElvisPriestly,

Really reasurring to read.
And I completely agree here.
Please let Elvis rest in peace. God saw he needed the rest and called upon him.
NOthing will bring him back to us so at least let him rest in dignity.
Riley

I agree with that.
Let him Rest In Peace.

[sweetinator88]

they keep saying that they still have some of his organs in storage at the hospital or wherever, can't they use that for DNA testing????

[Albert]

Yes, the can... but I'm unsure if they (whoever that might be) are allowed to. Laws about DNA testing can differ from state to state

[KPM]

I'm pretty sure that unless Lisa gives the okay-no testing of any tissue can be forced without some real revelation of fact to spur the testing.
The courts will never order any exhuming without some firm evidence.....not wild supposition, speculation and heresay evidence.
