Denied
The Board denied the propriety of disinterment of the Veteran's remains from Ohio Western Reserve National Cemetery based on clear and convincing evidence that he committed a State capital crime but was not convicted due to his death.
The deciding factor: The evidence showed clear and convincing proof that the Veteran committed a State capital crime, which allowed for reconsideration of interment in the National Cemetery System.
