The Bloody Pillow
A fascinating story crossed my screen tonight about a man named John Sotos and his claim that President Abraham Lincoln may have been terminally ill at the time of his assassination. Sotos claims that Lincoln may have suffered from a rare form of cancer, and probably wouldn't have survived too much longer had he not been killed by John Wilkes Booth.
In order to prove this claim, Mr. Sotos has sought permission to extract DNA from a bloody pillow currently on display at a Philadelphia museum, which is the pillow that the president died on after his shooting.
