By Daniel Bates James Thompson: He died on the same day as the Alps massacre. Now his daughter Joy Martinolich wants his remains to be exhumed The body of the secret  ex-husband of an Alps massacre victim should be exhumed to find out if he was poisoned, his daughter said yesterday. Joy Martinolich wants the remains of James Thompson to be dug up by the FBI and tested for evidence that he did not die of a heart attack as has long been thought. She also appealed for the French police to contact her family to ‘eliminate my father from the investigation’ and find out who was the target of the mass shooting.
