"James Brown's body has gone missing from its crypt, according to his daughter.
LaRhonda Pettit wants ‘The Godfather Of Soul' to be exhumed, more than three years after he passed away at the age of 73.
She says his death was part of a conspiracy to get his money but has been thwarted in her continued calls for a full autopsy because of confusion surrounding the whereabouts of the corpse.
"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," explained Pettit, one of 12 people who have claimed to be the star's illegitimate child since he passed away.
It's been reported that Brown's body was embalmed and sealed in a temporary crypt at his daughter Deanna's South Carolina home while a public mausoleum was being built, which is yet to happen."
This guy causes controversy even in death...
The Godfather of Soul is still on the move.

Slugs! HE created slugs! They can't hear. They can't speak. They can't operate machinery. Are we not in the hands of a lunatic?

To the tune of the 'The battle hymn of the Republic' (or if you'd prefer 'The Vatican Broadside' by Half Man Half Biscuit)
James Brown's body has gone missing from it's grave,

Outclassed in every way, I thought long and hard to make a pun one of his songs and failed miserably...
