This is so awesome...so I guess they are going to exhume harry houdini's body because they suspect he was murdered. He was part of a group that investigated these spiritual mediums for fraud because he thought it was bad that they were pretending to have contact with the dead and then taking people's money for it. He was in the middle of trying to find out about some missing children that sir arthur conan doyle had adopted from England and they had basically gone missing. One theory is that, since Houdini got the government involved in this investigation it was a good enough motive that he may have killed him. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was the author of the Sherlock Holmes books and he was a believer in the medium thing and you should look up some of the bullshit he believed from his wife. He thought his wife was a spirit medium and she told him that he was the next messiah basically. I don't know, I thought this was all really interesting.
