A team of scientists, led by forensic scientist James Starrs of George Washington University conducted the exhumation at Mt. Olivet Cemetery in Kearney, Missouri.

The local Kansas City media was in attendance along with The Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, The Associated Press, NBC, A Current Affair, a German television crew and many others. Good Morning America conducted a live interview beside the opened grave.
