Who stole the soul indeed! Rumored to be running guns on the Ivory Coast with Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix and Elvis.

Some days we write the news, some days the news writes... you know. The UK media salivating heavily on this day, an otherwise slow news day, thanks to a report in the Daily Mail concerning the late James Brown's body - or the lack thereof.

Hi daughter, LaRhonda Pettit, is claiming that the corpse is missing from its crypt, which has been stored since the Godfather of Soul's death in 2006 at the S.C. home of another daughter, Deanna, until an official mausoleum can be completed. Pettit has been seeking an exhumation and autopsy of the body in order to prove that the official cause of death was not heart failure in conjunction with pneumonia.

Petit told reporters, "My daddy's body has disappeared. I have no clue where it was taken, but I need to know where. I'm convinced his death was suspicious and I want the people responsible brought to justice. The only way to do that is to exhume his body and have an autopsy. I cannot understand why one was never conducted."

She's suggested that perhaps an overdose of prescription painkillers, facilitated by "enablers," was the real cause of death.

Shades of Elvis and Michael Jackson.
