View Full Version : DNA proves Elvis is still alive!?!?

I know this sounds like another "here we go aagain" story, but according to a judge, Elvis is still alive and has a half sister and they now claim to have DNA to prove it. I don't think he's still alive but you never know. It is still slightly possible. And they say DNA samples don't lie so I guess we'll have to wait and see how this all plays out.
Watch it for yourselves and then make an open minded decision. After seeing this I really don't know what to believe anymore. Either it's the biggest scam in pop culture hisotiry or the King lives, literally.:supriced:

Not at all likely, but still undeniably within the realm of possibility. I sure wish he was still alive though, as much as I'd love to see him step on to a stage again or make new music, if he were alive I think I'd just as soon he remains anonymously secure in whatever life he'd carved out post-1977 rather than return to the spotlight (although, on the other hand, many things have fundamentally changed in the way music and live concerts are done since then and maybe by now he'd be able to better handle the demands of being Elvis Presley).

Alice Tiffin is a delusional nutcase.
Her own mother has even come forward and said that her own daughter is living in a dream world and that she (Alice's mother) never even touched Elvis.
As far as DNA evidence? Um, if I'm not mistaken there's never been any instance whatsoever (at least to my knowledge as a fan) of any DNA taken from Elvis during his lifetime - and it'd be really hard to take it from him now.

For what it's worth they do have hair locks, and blood samples taken from Elvis while he was alive and during his autopsy that have been used before in DNA cases to prove that he's not related to other claims. If I were the judge, I would demand that she bring Mr Jessie AKA Elvis Presley into a courtroom, take a blood test and match the DNA with the evidence and see if it is indeed a perfect match. Then the world would know both secrets at once.(y)

You don't and can't know that for sure. A great many people with far fewer resources and connections than Elvis Presley have convincingly faked their deaths...how many, we may never know, because we only hear about the ones who end up blowing the whole thing, though some of those managed to disappear for years or even decades. Many odd things happened to and around Elvis during his life, and him faking his death is not only not beyond the realm of possibility but would probably be considerably less weird than some things that did actually occur around him (and, no, I don't mean the fact he almost got to act alongside talking camels). Do I think he did it? No. But it is possible, and to state with absolute certainty that it is not is a logical fallacy.
I'm basically playing Devil's Advocate here. It'd be kind of pointless to do so, however, unless there was circumstantial evidence to back the alternative position and there most definitely is. Whether that evidence stands up or not is another story, and in this case where there is smoke there may very well be no fire of any kind, but still...there're some questions surrounding Elvis' death and, as with Andy Kaufman, Jim Morrison, and others, this leads naturally to dramatic conclusions being advanced. The bottom line is that you and I do not and cannot know for sure that Elvis Presley died in 1977 (here, of course, I assume that you did not kill him, face-to-face, some time after his faked death, in which case you'd most definitely know for sure that he is dead and, not coincidentally, have a little explaining to do in this forum) but it is a reasonable certainty that he did die then. Wishing he hadn't is a whole other thing, and perfectly understandable (I sure wish he'd survived the '70s).

It could be just another hoax to bring Elvis' name back in the media. Graceland's ticket sales might have been low the past Elvis week. Or if it's true, that could have been one of the secrets the Colonel had on Elvis to get him to do what he wanted him to do.

Let me get this straight...Elvis licked an envelope on a letter sent to this nutty Woman claiming to be his half sister? And they extracted DNA from that sample? We may be all shook up by the news one day, that he has been in hiding all these years! I know the feedback i'm gonna get for even saying this..but, with Elvis anything is possible! And as previous post state others have faked their deaths and got caught! And they weren,t as connected to the Government like Elvis as far as his DEA badge is concerned!:'(:hmm:

You don't and can't know that for sure.
1). Elvis wouldn't have put his own family through the pain of having them assume that he'd faked his death.
2). Elvis loved his fans too much to fake his death.
Why are those two reasons (and other evidence) so hard to understand?
Threads like this (as I've said many times before) just seem to cause arguments and fights and it's pointless even discussing it.

There is NO WAY that he is alive given his physical condition and health problems.
plus, the man has got to be the most recognizable person in history and had to hide from the world at Graceland just to get some privacy,,,,how could he possible go un-detected for all these years?????
Elvis is dead. His memory and his acclaim go on-but he is physically dead.

I share your belief and opinion that Elvis died on August 16, 1977, but that doesn't mean that it's possible he didn't die that day. I think some are confusing what I and others have posted as being indicative of our belief that Elvis is still alive when what it is is simply acknowledgment of the fact that we can't know exactly what happened, either way.
There are some interesting bits of evidence to support the idea that Elvis didn't die that day but there're more compelling reasons to accept the more likely truth that he died. The chance he lived may be less than one percent, but it's not zero. The important thing now, for us, is that he's very much alive in an eternal way in so many hearts -- not getting all Presleytarian religious here, because for every out-there fan who truly sees him as a messiah figure there's some music enthusiast who simply appreciates his status as a cultural and musical force -- and his appeal continues to be so broad and so deep even three decades after his death that I'm fairly confident that Elvis will be around quite a while longer yet, even if not in body. Even had he survived 1977 and restored his health such that he could have lived decades more, his substantial legacy will endure far beyond the lifespan of any one man. As the saying goes, to live in the hearts we leave behind is not to die. In that sense, it's really true that the King lives...

If Elvis had a little bit more power to overcome his pill abuse and if others around him would have helped him with this....things would and could have been so much more nicer for him and the music !

I'm no expert on these matters so if anyone here is please forgive my ignorance, but I was wondering- since there are lawyers and judges attesting to the credibility of the DNA evidence, is there a risk that this investigation could result in Elvis or Vernon being exhumed in order to at least provide a more substantial DNA sample?
If so, it would make what (I am assuming) is a pretty sophisticated hoax all the more offensive and distressing. :sad:

Bingo. It only takes one look at JFK's autopsy photos to see proof that he's dead.
I frankly think that these "Is Elvis Alive?" threads are more of a disgrace to his memory than anything else. As I've said before, all these threads continue to do is cause fights/arguments between board members.

I share your belief and opinion that Elvis died on August 16, 1977, but that doesn't mean that it's possible he didn't die that day. I think some are confusing what I and others have posted as being indicative of our belief that Elvis is still alive when what it is is simply acknowledgment of the fact that we can't know exactly what happened, either way.
There are some interesting bits of evidence to support the idea that Elvis didn't die that day but there're more compelling reasons to accept the more likely truth that he died. The chance he lived may be less than one percent, but it's not zero. The important thing now, for us, is that he's very much alive in an eternal way in so many hearts -- not getting all Presleytarian religious here, because for every out-there fan who truly sees him as a messiah figure there's some music enthusiast who simply appreciates his status as a cultural and musical force -- and his appeal continues to be so broad and so deep even three decades after his death that I'm fairly confident that Elvis will be around quite a while longer yet, even if not in body. Even had he survived 1977 and restored his health such that he could have lived decades more, his substantial legacy will endure far beyond the lifespan of any one man. As the saying goes, to live in the hearts we leave behind is not to die. In that sense, it's really true that the King lives...
I completely agree.

If the man wants to discus this,let him do it.
This is the world's biggest secret And We (elvis fans) should talk and discus it
Thanks Vegas King for sticking up for me. We put Elvis on such a high pedestal that we can,t even consider the fact he could pull this off? I know, i know he isn,t that cold hearted to let Lisa & Vernon believe he was dead..but what if they were in on it? Just voicing my opinion!:blush:

Do you seriously believe that this nine year old child went through life pretending to the world that the daddy she adored was dead?
Do you believe that Elvis sat back in the shadows and allowed his daughter to marry Michael Jackson?
I respect this is your opinion, but, i find this very disturbing that some people think Lisa could have pretended to have lost her daddy. This is my opinion.

Elvis isn't burried in the meditation garden. Elvis is frozen in, maybe that's where they have the DNA from. There are rumors that it is done by the same person that froze John.F.Kennedy in.
So, what, is this sort of thing suppose to be funny.

DNA lab owner: Elvis is not dead
Supports woman's claim to be Presley's half-sister
By Lawrence Buser (Contact), Memphis Commercial Appeal
Saturday, October 11, 2008
The head of an Arizona DNA lab who supports a woman's claim that she's the daughter of Vernon Presley said Friday there's something even more interesting about the case.
Elvis is alive.
"I think the DNA taken from the person named Jessie can only be DNA of Elvis Presley," said Donald Yates of DNA Consultants in Scottsdale. "It's from a live person because the DNA is recent. There are a lot of Elvis impersonators, but I don't think you can imitate DNA. It's hard to get your mind around this story."

Eliza Presley, a 46-year-old Washington state woman who recently changed her name from Alice Elizabeth Tiffin, said in Probate Court this week that she based her Presley kinship claim in part on a DNA sample sent to her from a Jessie Presley.
When asked by attorney William Bradley Jr. if Jessie believes he is Elvis Presley, Eliza replied, "No, actually (he is) Elvis Presley."
She did not elaborate and could not be reached Friday.
Judge Karen Webster reopened Vernon Presley's estate Wednesday at the request of Eliza's attorney, but made no other finding and did not set another court date.
Bradley, however, repeated his assertion that the case has no merit.
"After hearing her testimony in court, I'm not at all surprised about her most recent revelations," said Bradley, who represents Elvis Presley Enterprises and Lisa Marie Presley Lockwood. "Many individuals who claim to be related to Elvis Presley have vivid imaginations."
Eliza Presley's mother, former Memphian Florence Sharp Clark of Oregon, said she was part of the Elvis social circle for a period, but that she had no child by him or his father.
Elvis, who is commonly believed to have died in 1977, would be 73 today.
Yates, who has a doctoral degree in history but none in science, said he concluded Eliza is the daughter of Elvis' father, Vernon Presley, and that Jessie is actually Elvis by comparing his DNA with a Presley cousin, a cousin from Elvis' mother's side, Eliza's and several control samples.
He said neither he nor Eliza has met the man they believe to be Elvis, but that Eliza has talked to him and that he lives at an undisclosed location in the United States.
"I'm an historian and I've never known of a story of a famous person dying and then of rumors being sustained for 25 years that he's still alive," said Yates, who said he also is a former public relations man for Alka Seltzer. "Not throughout human history has a situation like that existed. Jesus Christ died, but he came back pretty quickly."

Here is a bit of information on the accuracies of sibling DNA testing. Also involving a cousin means nothing because the accuracies, are really narrowed, but ya know, I'll give that on a check via phone call. Also lets note that Yates is a historian, not a doc. of science much less DNA science.

But how can a DNA sample prove that elvis is still alive ?
And can you imagine him alive and never noticed or recognized by the millions of fans all over the world ?
If there's one man that can not live incognito in this world, that's elvis.

Agreed. Besides, and it's been said over and over and over that Elvis would've never stooped so low as to put his family (especially Lisa) through the hurt and pain of having them think he faked his death.
If he was alive, do we really think that Lisa would be so emotional when discussing his death??? She was there on August 16, 1977 and she saw what happened.

Oh please. Her marrying Jackson was nothing but a ploy to save his image and career. That's all. She was never in love with him and he's never loved a woman to have been in love with her. Itw as about a friend stepping in to help a friend out. Notice how they divorced only a few months later once he was cleared of all charges.:hmm:

Anyone can fake emotion. Ever heard of acting? If the DNA is really Elvis' then something's fishy with what all went on on 8-16-77 and that means everyone from Joe to Nancy to Lisa have lied publicly to cover it up. Unless he took a drug that knocked him out to where he wasn't breathing and was taken to a secret location to recooperate and then left the country to keep certain oens form knowing. I'm sure Lisa would know by now though. Not saying that's what happened but anything's possible.
Something else to think about. If they can do a DNA test on a 2,000 year old mummy to identify it then surley they can do it on a man who's only been dead for 31 years.

With Joe, having said he found Elvis in his bed not breathing, I believe that was just Joe trying to cover up for elvis, because I guess he thought with the media and all it would've looked bad with him saying he found Elvis in the bathroom fell of the commode.

Not necessarily-posted this on the other thread but it applies here also.
First off DNA just recently taken of Elvis Aron Presley-would have to be proved that it was just recently taken. If anyone has a strand of his hair-that contains DNA-if they have a cup "he drank from"-even from 1970 it may have his DNA signature on the cup. A scarf "he wore and sweated on"-may have his DNA on it. An "envelope licked by Elvis" may have DNA-but it does not prove its recent DNA.So proving that a sample was just recently taken is going to be much harder than just saying it was recent.
I would assume the courts would say, "Wait a minute!-Whats the chain of this evidence and wheres the legal proof that it is indeed recent"
I know everyone recalls the shrink a few years ago who was "treating Elvis"
and claimed it was 100% certain it was Elvis. He said proof would be forth coming and it was indeed a sham"
I listened to this guy being interviewed on local radio and the DJs had a suprise for him Marion Cocke Elvis's nurse who was there when they worked on Elvis on 8-16-77 she was mad and crying after listening to this shrinks story of being 100% sure Elvis was alive. She asked him if he had any idea how wrong it was to give fans such false hope. The guy got mad claimed he was set up (which was true) and he hung up.

I doubt it too. But we never know what will happen. But IMO Lisa will never allow it because it would kill the interest in Elvis when they saw his remains and the world would then know he is definitely dead. Or, if there wasn't any person in there then they could have an all out Elvis search with a reward for the person who finds him.:lol:

When Buzzie Forbess, who was one of my best riends by the way, gave me that red flannel shirt to wear. He knew I liked it. Then I felt bad because I put a hole in it. Or how about getting eviction notices because your momma made a little extra money? And you talk about dignity.

My first thought, too. I'm sure that everyone saying that such emotions cannot be faked will have been, as I have been many times, convinced by the emotions portrayed with great sincerity (faked, in cruder terms) by even halfway competent actors.
But I figured my playing the Devil's Advocate was already wearing thin and that all I'd do is wrongly convince people that I'm a die-hard (no pun intended) proponent of the Elvis-is-Alive theory(s). But, yeah, acting...emoting...properly done, you can't tell it from the real thing
(for the comprehension-impaired, here I am not suggesting that Lisa Marie or anyone else involved was acting their grief; indeed, if someone DID fake his or her death I think the least cruel, if still heartbreaking, way to do so would be to keep that fact from family and others closest to him or her and to just disappear forever from their lives, because any severe move like that has equally dramatic consequences, not all of them positive)

Exactly!
Admittedly, I'm probably very much lacking in focus from severe sleep deprivation right now, but I'm failing to see the part in these reports in which any DNA evidence they may or may not have could actually even suggest, let alone prove, that Elvis still lives. And, yes, there again we have the very question as to whether the DNA is even Elvis' -- there certainly are many samples of his hair and other bits and pieces (yes, perhaps even concert scarves could yield something even after all this time), but I'm not sure how much of it has a fireproof warranty in terms of the integrity of the chain of evidence.
Even that diagnostic lab in the San Fernando Valley that may or may not have samples of Elvis DNA taken postmortem (I actually went to that lab once...can't recall its name now but I did then, and it was kinda weird knowing the connection) wouldn't be much use in that, if there really was a dead body for them to take samples from, it couldn't be Elvis Presley unless he did something odd like rise on the fourth day.

Here's how I feel about the "Elvis is alive" theory. My mind tells me he is but my heart tells me he's not. It's been way too long.
Here's the thing that keeps me wondering. There's been so many unsolved mysteries regarding Elvis' death over the years and what all took place between 11:00 pm o 8-15-77 and 5:30 am when he wa found not breathing on 8-16-77. Some of the myths have been proven fake or untrue but others still remain unsolved or proven false to this day, such as the fact that his life insurance policy was never cashed in which is usually done once a person is deseased. Another was of the fact that a man going by the name of John Burrows boarded a plane at Memphis International Airport on the exact morning that Elvis reporedly died. What were the odds of that, knowing now that Elvis used that as his secret alias name when traveling?
There's so much that could lead anyone, fan or not, to believe he faked his death. Too many conspiracies and coincidences.

A judge on Wednesday reopened the estate of Elvis Presley's father after a woman testified she has DNA proof she is Vernon Presley's daughter and Elvis' half-sister.

She's Vernon's daughter and I'm the King Of Siam.
It's getting tiresome seeing these worms come out of the woodwork.
The ***** who heads up the Arizona DNA claims it is Elvis' DNA and he is alive.
This is a so-caloled DNA expert who has no science training his main subject is history. That figures, probably a political appointee who doesn't know his *** from his elbow. Probably recomended by John McCain.
DNA EXPERT, MY ***!
What an insult to Elvis' memory
I couldn't agree more..Will anyone ever let poor old Elvis rest in peace?Do they have to dig him up to prove a point?
-SatninLove
Its disgraceful, literally....:lame::sad:
It is very disgraceful. You do not have to dig up the grave to prove Elvis is dead. There have to be at least 3 dozen people who saw him dead on 8-16-77 and not just Elvis people-but hospital employees, doctors, the ambulance drivers, other patients who saw the stretcher with him on it being wheeled into the ER etc......I have listened to Marion Cocke interviewed on radio and read a couple interviews she has given, "she was there at Baptist Memorial"- she says there is no doubt nor if ands or buts that Elvis Presley died on 8-16-77. She is more convincing than any person who has ever discussed his death. The people who start these rumors-some in earnest, some to make a buck, and some just to stir up controversy are just totally wrong.
We live in such a "conspiracy laden society"-where every single moment is somehow orchestrated by some unseen powers or forces. Sure their are somethings and instances where there may be something more than we see-but not everything. Tabloid journalism has bred tabloid thinking on the publics part. Worsens every year. Gets more disgraceful every year.

I totally agree, Ken.
Well said.
Talking about people in this genre. There was the lady over a year ago, who wrote a story, enthusiastically promoting herself, saying she was with Elvis late 1977. I communicated with her, typing messages on her website. She said she'd give us a hint as to her relationship, what her expose was all about. She ended up admitting, that the relationship was like "The Ghost and Mrs Muir" which was a series, about a lovely lady (Hope Lange) who had a relationship with a Sea Captain, who was a ghost. :blink::blink::angry::mad:

Marty lives up to the term "grumpy old man". Everything he ever has to say is filled with bitterness and hatred in his remarks. He also can't stand to be wrong or corrected. He posts at the Memphis CA a lot under the name Moon2337 or something like that. I've seen him get into it with practically everyone and most of the time not even about Elvis related topics. He's just naturally a grumpy old fart. Sounds like someone else on here.:hmm:

I hate to blow you out of the water on DNA...but even in closed crime cases, evidence which was kept, articles of clothing, a blood stain, a tooth....so on and so forth, could not be solved then, but can be now.
Our technology is incredible and improving as I speak(type)
Sad to say, at autopsy, there are slides, of blood stain, saliva and skin samples..they still exist, because he was the King...who would toss them out?
It wasn't a murder case, but never the less, these items remain.
As for the envelope...good Lord, give me a break... lets just say Elvis is not dead? Isn't that wonderful? It means he might have enjoyed his life, rather than putting up with being told what to eat, drink, say and think...
Wherever the man is, dead or alive, he should be respected, protected, and left to his own wishes... if he wanted to come forth...he would..so "IF" he were alive, and he has not, then it speaks for itself, he wants to be left alone..he doesn't want to hurt anyone. He doesn't want to be tracked like a seriel killer...... :blink: Can't we just respect whoemever is laying in that grave? Or who is not? Love means letting go sometimes, as much as it hurts.
Saying goodbye doesn't mean dying...it just means.. "I've had enough"
That is my perception of all this craziness, stalking the man..........talk about a real metaphor here...which I used to love tossing at Devildog and Marty Lacker... "Hound-dog" witch hunt...that is what fans shouldn't be doing.
Dontcha think?
If he is found, how much love do you think this man can show to his fams of a lifetime, knowing they literally dug up his grave to be sure.... or went to some far out cabin or cave and drug him out by the feet...like a hibernating bear.........just for self satisfaction? Oh please...
Lets be happy for him, he is one of two places...here on this crummy earth we call home...with the rest of us...or he is in heaven..with some of us..the very least we owe to Elvis Presley, is the respect to allow him to live or die..without interuption or false documentations...to put feathers in the hat of the person who spots him first. Trust me, he wont feel friendly toward that particular "Rat"
I know I wouldn't.:blink: This stupid thing keeps saying my message is too short...I think it's too long..and I'm about to have a fit anytime....:notworthy
God bless you, adios

Totally agree. It's an interesting little mystery -- even apart from the inevitable and very understandable wish that Elvis still lived, or inability to let him go, there are some interesting questions surrounding his death -- and some things are better left as mystery. It makes life more interesting.
More to the point, I agree with you about the whole "tracked like a serial killer" thing. Much as I'd love to see Elvis get on that stage one more time, if he somehow did get away from it all on August 16, 1977, and still lived, I'd just as soon he continue to have the peace and privacy that eluded him for much of the 21 years of his living with fame. If we really care about Elvis, the very least we could do in thanks for what he gave us is that we'd let him live as he wished if he did, indeed, fake his death 31 years ago, and if that unlikely situation is true than presumably his wishes are to remain out of the public eye.

No seriously, he does seem to have so much anger in him, just listen to him on Elvis The Final Days and All The Kings Men, hell he makes Fike look like a saint. Also have you noticed he's the only one whos always said Priscilla's father forced Elvis to marry her, and everyone else says Elvis wanted to. Marty just did not like her at all from the beginning, and hes always been an old fart if you ask me.

Marty to me seems pretty upfront and boldly voices his opinion even if he does not remember facts. Remember, all these guys had drug problems too so the stories have to appear a bit foggy at times.
He's not the only one to talk about Priscilla's father forcing Elvis to marry her. Billy and Lamar both agreed to it, also Sheila Ryan and Alicia Kerwin spoke of it too. One time about 10 years ago, Marty got into an argument with me regarding, Scotty and DJ being session musicians on almost all of Elvis' soundtracks cept for the last two years. He was insisting that they had left the Elvis right after 1960. He finally admitted to me that, He guessed never paid attention to who was in the studio when he would go there. So they do have memory problems due the drugs I think. I know I messed myself up when I used to be an addict.

I know this sounds like another "here we go aagain" story, but according to a judge, Elvis is still alive and has a half sister and they now claim to have DNA to prove it. I don't think he's still alive but you never know. It is still slightly possible. And they say DNA samples don't lie so I guess we'll have to wait and see how this all plays out.
Watch it for yourselves and then make an open minded decision. After seeing this I really don't know what to believe anymore. Either it's the biggest scam in pop culture hisotiry or the King lives, literally.:supriced:

You can't deny those features are there,.Cheekbones,nose,etc.....People sound different when they age.They dont sound the same.Listen to jerry lee or Tom jones etc.....
Al I can say is sure people do age.
Tom Jones still sounds like Tom Jones when he speaks and when he sings-his pronunciation and Welsh accent are still intact.
Tom Jones is 68 but still looks like-"Tom Jones" no question who he is
Jerry Lee still has a southern twange when he speaks and sings (his voice is a little weak at time) he still has the same pronunciation. He is heavier and older but when you look at him you know-this is "Jerry Lee Lewis".
Many people look like someone-especially when this person is frozen in time 31 years ago and you have not watched them slowly age each year.
If you think this guy is Elvis-that okay-I do not.
Elvis is dead-wish he wasn't but he is. All these rumors and hoaxs do- is give a false hope to fans who want so badly for Elvis to be alive. Not everything is a conspiracy-not everything is planned out in advance to some higher reason of purpose. Elvis's earthly life ended on 8-16-77.

and she said that Elvis is alive and wear the name of jesse I think a 75%
that the king can have fake his death in 1977, can be that I go for a con
but I'm sure that as fans here think the same thing as me

I'am guessing that the people who think elvis is alive didn't think about the love elvis had for his fans or his family. I was watching unsolved mysteries and david stanley was talking crap like normal, but what saddens me is that they play this stuff on tv, bad enough its on a elvis forum, but heck the world the is watching and the younger generation are going to be thinking elvis is out running aroud somewhere. I think its better to get the facts straight instead of putting lies out there and bottom line is elvis is a stand up person and wouldn't think of hiding from the people who love the ground he walked on.

Elvis' lifestyle and habits were unsustainable, it would have taken a massive lifestyle change to raise Elvis' life expectancy! Even if Elvis had changed his habits to a healthier pattern I don't believe that Elvis would have lived to reach the age of 73 given the information regarding his health and the damage already done to his body at the age of 42. I could be wrong, but then so many conditions have bee attributed to Elvis' health that it is quite difficult to postulate..

Elvis died 16th August 1977, please let him rest in peace,
I second that. Let's all just accept the fact he's gone and enjoy what he left us to enjoy which is his music and movies.

There's maybe a 10% chance of him still being alive. The argument that he died will go on forever. The fact is nobody really knows unless they touched or saw the body on the examining table and witnesses can back it up. And that only person I know of is Dr. Vasco Smith who story has been questioned at times mainly by Lacker.
Although Lisa apparently had a medium to contact him from the beyond recently so that would mean he's really dead if that did indeed happen. And yes mediums are real and not fake.

The continuation of topics like "is he alive" amazes me.
Must have been a bigger conspiracy to end all conspiracies. Federal government,Tennesee state, Shelby county, Every person who says they saw him dead including ambulance drivers, police, doctors, nurses and those at Graceland-all must have made a tidy sum to help defraud the entire world.;)
I recall in the late 60s a photo on the National Enquirer Cover of a white haired man in a wheel chair. The title was something like,
"Kennedy Alive on Onassis Island"
It went on to describe a huge conspiracy theory and try to back it up with conjecture and senseless questions on end.:lmfao::lmfao:

Don't forget all those many fans who passed by the casket. I can see Vernon saying well, let them see him, no one will notice. The TCB band along with Kathy Westmoreland the cancer theorist, the reverend, Ann Margaret who played the role of her life, and the list goes on and on...
Must have been like 2000 people involved in it, a portion of them known by not being able to keep their mouth shut.

The TCB band wasn't in attendance. Myrna Smith, Kathy Westmoreland, JD Sumner and The Stamps and Charlie Hodge were the only members from his stage show. Parker didn't want the rest of them there because he felt it would be too emotional on them to handle.

Well, thank you for clearing that up for us.
This woman who is making a claim against "Vernons estate"-her own mother has denied her claim. Which will have absolutely no bearing on Elvis's estate.
http://www.wreg.com/global/story.asp?s=9147960&ClientType=Printable
excerpt below:
A lawyer hired to represent Lisa Marie Presley, Bill Bradley, isn't putting much stock in the claim, either.
"We've had at least... at least a dozen people claim they are primary children of Elvis. This is the first child of Vernon we've had," said Bill Bradley.
In court Eliza Presley said she had a DNA sample from one of Elvis' cousins and from an envelope licked by Elvis himself but when pressed, she admitted the envelope was actually licked by a man named Jessie Presley who only claims he's Elvis......
So far The judge in the case has as yet made no rulings on her claim-and she will not rule on whether Elvis is alive because that is not what the lawsuit is about.

LOL Does that means she is Jessie Presley's daughter or that she is Vernon's sister?

Guess she got the DNA also from Donna presley
In this latter respect few media outlets have picked up on the other DNA evidence to be offered.......that the DNA tests carried out in Arizona match the genetic make-up of Elvis’ cousin Donna. It is this DNA evidence which is likely to prove the case rather than "Jesse's" DNA.......which is unlikely to be what we are led to believe, and even irrelevant

Kinship Analysis - Missing Alleged Father (that would be Vernon)
If samples from the deceased are not readily available then the alleged father's genotype can be reconstructed by testing close relatives. The most straightforward of these tests is a grandpaternity test in which the alleged father's parents are tested. If one or both of his parents are missing, then samples from his siblings or other children can be used and extended typing performed. Any combination of three or four of these close relatives will result in a highly conclusive test. When fewer relatives are available for testing, the ability to provide a conclusive result decreases. Relatives farther removed from the alleged father such as cousins are not related closely enough to provide useful information. One caution to this type of testing is that if the relationships are misrepresented to the laboratory, a false negative may result.

OK, sadly, if Elvis is alive, Lisa Marie would have never married Michael Jackson. Plain and simple. I think most of this "Elvis is alive" junk comes from people like me, where they wish it was true, and are not willing to let them go. Then there are those people who do it to make fun of Elvis. And I hope to someday personally hunt down those people.

I feel, and I do not know it for fact, that Elvis was tired of his life. I think he loved his fans yes (I saw someone say that he loved us too much to fake his death) but I feel he hated (deep down) the life we forced upon him. I think that Elvis had a good sense of humor. You never know. I always wondered why Lisa Marie, when confronted with footage of her father, never really cried (I saw her do it once in Elvis By The Presleys). I lost my father in may to Pancreatic Cancer and I cry anytime I look over photos or see a home movie. I guess some people deal with death differently. But I'm 24. She was 9. I had more time with my father than she did. But anyways...I've always wondered and still will. OH and Lisa Marie was an ADULT when she married Michael Jackson. I think Elvis would have respected her decisions...to a certain extent. If he were alive and she wanted to marry michael, she is so head strong ELVIS HIMSELF would not have prevented it. So I wish people would stop saying that.

I think you just answered your own question. There is a huge difference in the emotions of a 9 year old and the emotions of a 24 year old. One is a child...the other is an adult. That's like comparing apples and oranges, it really can't be done.:blush::blush:

Also, everyone handles emotions differently. Just because someone doesn't cry buckets doesn't mean that they miss the deceased any less than the person that did cry buckets. We handle death differently. I know someone who will cry at a commercial or book. I also know of some who will not breakdown in public.

In the Fox thing they showed a pix of this Jessie with Ben, Lisa's boy. The Jessie man looked to be in his 70's. But the problem is that Ben is now 15 or 16? So that Jessie would now be about 86. Do the math, doesn't ad up.
I just think it is much easier to pull off an Elvis isn't dead, than for someone to actually fake their own death. Case one involves a handful of people. Case two involves a whole lot more people and some in a very ethical professional field. I know Elvis had clout...but I hardly think he had that much clout!
Its just wishful thinking to believe that Elvis is not deceased.
I know how some want to believe this, everyone wishes he was not gone-but he is. He died and no rumors, no amount of connecting unrelated facts, no faked photos on the tabloid covers will bring him back.

Agreed, after 30 years I'm really tired of several rumors that have gone around about Elvis. The poor guy seemed to be a target for anything and everything.
All he should be remembered for is the joy he gave us in so many ways.
