October 9, 2008

Eliza Presely claims Vernon Presley is her father and says she has DNA evidence to prove it.

A Memphis judge says a woman claiming to be Elvis Presley's half sister can make a claim to Vernon Presley's estate. A woman who changed her name to Eliza Presley testified in court Wednesday that she has DNA evidence that Vernon Presley, Elvis' Father, is her father. Eliza Presley's attorney said the DNA evidence has been tested in and retested by various labs and proof is conclusive. Eliza Presley testified about the DNA. But she said she got Elvis' DNA from an envelope given to her by a person named Jesse.She says Jesse is Elvis. Eliza Presley's mother Florence Clark said the story is not true, that she never had a relationship with Elvis or Vernon Presley. The attorney for EP Enterprise says even if Eliza Presley could make a claim to Vernon Presley's estate, the estate isn't worth anything because all the assets are now in a trust to benefit specific family members.
