    Many psychic detectives wrongly "see" dead victims

    Many of the media's current crop of "psychic detectives" have informed clients seeking missing persons that those they sought were dead --- only to later have the persons be found alive. Super exaggerator "psychic" Noreen Renier told reporter Luisa Yanez with the [Florida] Sun Sentinel in...

    TLC renews 'Long Island Medium' with Theresa Caputo

    The Learning Channel just renewed 'Long Island Medium' with Theresa Caputo. The following is part of an interview where she talks about skeptics. Too bad the interviewer didn't ask, "Where's the proof your psychic?" That seems like a better question than others he asked. Or "Why not take the...

    Critic’s “Top 15” claims by psychic detective Noreen Renier

    I’ve been asked to post the “top 15” claims made by “psychic detective” Noreen Renier since many JREF forum members aren’t quite up-to-date on her three decades of claims. So among the literally hundreds --- perhaps thousands --- of paranormal and intuitive claims by TV psychic detective Noreen...

    Any case of psychic finding LIVING person?

    Does anyone know of a documented case where a "psychic" is credited with finding a LIVING, BREATHING person that was already officially listed as missing by a police agency? Clearly there is the remaining question of whether such a credit (if it exists) was solely the result of the psychic ---...

    Deb Webber sees missing child in a ditch

    I know this has been discussed in the Sensing Murder thread but it deserves to be single out as current news. After appearing on NZ breakfast radio, self-professed psychic Deb Webber has apparently inserted herself into the case of missing child, Aisling Symes. This is the same Deb Webber who...

    Jaycee Lee Dugard, did Sylvia comment on this and if so how wrong was she?

    With the case of Jaycee Lee Dugard (Link) who was held captive for 18 years making headlines around the world, it seems apt to start asking the obvious questions concerning Sylvia Browne (& any other psychics who might have gotten involved in the case). 1. Did she make any predictions to the...
