Casting was Diane’s official job. Unofficially, no physical anthropologist could resist examining bone for clues to a person’s life. Every skeleton – historic or otherwise – had a fascinating tale to tell.

One summer day in 1995, Diane stared into the empty eye sockets of Jesse James, the notorious American outlaw. Or did she?

The fragile skull and other remains came from a double grave in the James family plot at Mt. Olivet Cemetery in Kearney, Missouri. The tombstone read “Jesse Woodson James, September 5, 1847, assassinated April 3, 1882.

But was the corpse under the marker really him? Jim Starrs, a professor of law and forensic science, paid to have the body exhumed in order to solve that history mystery.
