Thompson sued the cemetery in August after it objected to his plans to exhume the grave as part of a television documentary.

Indiana will exhume John Dillinger's grave

1," is set to be exhumed at the end of this year at the wishes of Dillinger's niece and nephew. Michael Thompson, Dillinger's nephew, submitted an application to the Indiana State Department of Health for a permit to disinter the grave underneath Dillinger's headstone, according to documents obtained by CNN affiliate WXIN. The documents contain an affidavit from Dillinger's niece, Carol Thompson, which builds the case that someone other than her Dillinger is buried in the grave. According to the conventional narrative, Dillinger was buried at Crown Hill Cemetery in Indianapolis, Indiana on July 26, 1934. But that planned dig was halted during a dispute between the family and Crown Hill Cemetery.
