Did anyone see the new Court TV show Haunting Evidence last night? I thought it was surprisingly good. They have paranormal investigator (who seemed sort of useless) and 2 psychics investigate unsolved homicides. It looks like you can even watch the first episode online at the link below:

The case they profile is one I hadn't heard of...very baffling.

What do you think about the whole psychic investigator thing? While I believe there are some total frauds out their (aahem...Sylvia Brown...cough cough), I am open to the possibility that there are people with true psychic abilities. It looks like there are many law enforcement agencies that are open to this possibility as well.

That's such a tough tough question NW girl...

I believe there are some very special and very rare people who have this ability, but I'm not sure its truly psychic... I believe they just have a very uncanny ability to imagine accurate evidence.

Much like a profiler can come up with a general description of the type of person, these people have the ability to "see" things in their imagination that turn out to be dead on accurate.

But these people are so very rare and like profilers even the best of them can be wrong. They are overwhelmingly out numbered by the frauds and mis-guided.
