Supplemental Post 5 Presley

As I was scrolling through Facebook about a week ago, a picture of Elvis Presley then and now appeared on my newsfeed. Obviously intrigued, I clicked on the pictures description and here is what it read:

SAN DIEGO, California -

Earlier this month, an 80-year-old, homeless, white-bearded man was found deceased under an overpass in San Diego, California. Nobody knew the man’s name, but friends referred to him as Jessie, so investigators decided to try DNA testing with hopes that something would pop up in the nationwide DNA database. What popped up on the computer screen in the high-tech lab stunned everyone. The DNA results of ‘Jessie Doe’ were an exact match to the one and only, Elvis Aaron Presley.

Lab technician Robert Brensdale said he and his lab assistant, Madeline Hedgespeth, laughed when the name popped up. “We thought somebody, somewhere, somehow in the system pulled the greatest and most elaborate prank on us ever, we both laughed with hysteria for about an hour,” Bresndale told Jerry Hardin of the Hollywood Word, a new entertainment publication based out of Los Angeles.

Brensdale and Hedgespeth then went to their superior with laughter, as if he were the one behind this “prank”. They were told to simmer down and stay quiet, that this was no laughing matter. From there, the results went up the ladder to the FBI and CIA.

Now, weeks later, FBI spokesperson Philip Hunter has revealed that the deceased man’s body was actually the body of Elvis Presley, who had been in the witness protection program since 1977.

“Mr. Presley was placed in the program under a voluntary basis. He was not a witness to any crime or anything like that. Once he had met President Nixon, the two became great friends, and Mr. Presley wanted out of his life, he wanted to be an unknown, so President Nixon made this possible. Yes, it is official – Elvis Presley was really alive all that time, and only a handful of people knew it, most of which are no longer with us.

The picture was posted on a random persons profile, Davi Colon. He seems to have no ties to the CIA or FBI, has a pet tarantula and cornrows, wears a puka shell necklace, and lives in New Mexico. Despite the obvious sketchiness of this claim, my heart started to swell with belief. And others seemed to feel the same, as his post has over 1 million shares on Facebook. I started searching frantically on Google for further proof. And I realized how deep the conspiracies over Elvis's death go. He apparently was involved with the mafia and had to go into witness protection program. Sightings have been made everywhere- he was even an extra in Home Alone. On his 80th birthday he returned to Graceland to visit, and he was seen in the pool house right after his death. There's even an 'Elvis Presley is Alive' Facebook group filled with sightings. Theories on why this obsession with keeping Elvis alive persists also flood the internet, which psychologists attributing it to the masses not being able to accept the death of their God- which Elvis was. And maybe this is true because I  can't help but think this is just the government trying to cover his death! It's an insane thought to have. But there's so many odd things about his death. His middle name was spelled wrong on the tombstone- because of the families inability to fully bury him since he was not dead yet. In interviews, his wife accidentally let slip she talked to him yesterday. And his father made the medical records sealed for 50 years (until after the real Elvis would actually be dead). Maybe it's wishful thinking, but, although nothing else online confirms this Facebook story, I still cant help but to think it's true.
