The body of the Big Bopper whose real name was J.P. Richardson is to be exhumed at the request of his son who had not been born at the time of his father’s death. The plane crashed in 1959 and killed Buddy Holly. There has always been some confusion and mystery concerning the accident.

I’m not sure where the confusion comes from.
I think the confusion comes with the presence of the gun, the ‘conspiracists’ would like this to be involved in the cause of the accident.

I’m not sure where the confusion comes from. I’ve always heard…even from the Bonanza’s owner in a documentary that it was a low time pilot taking off in IMC.
Sadly, it wasn’t the first and won’t be the last.
