A Woman living in upstate New York named Nina Sebastiana Viola Montepagani has dug up her father’s remains to get a DNA test proving that he was not her real father. Nina’s goal is to prove that she is actually the daughter of a wealthy Italian physician that she is certain had an affair with her mother. If Nina can prove that Dr. Sebastiano Raeli was her real biological father she could be the heir to a $50 million inheritance. She would be physicians only child if she is able to amend her birth certificate. It is not yet clear if Nina will also need to dig up Raeli’s grave in Rome for a DNA test proving paternity.
