Greetings,

Just watched the Tina Resch segment. It's one of the most intriguing I've seen on UM.

Here are a few links I found while cruising the Net you guys might find interesting:

thanks for posting that, GG2. I checked out the wikipedia article (wikipedia is an extremely informative website that I visit often) and was intrigued to learn that perhaps maybe Tina is innocent in her daughter's death. Still another unsolved mystery within an unsolved mystery.

It's been awhile since I've seen the segment, but I just acquired it so maybe I'll have more to say when I have time to watch the segment.

[QUOTE=greatgarrett2]It's one of the most intriguing I've seen on UM./QUOTE]

It's one of the most unintentionally funny segments I've ever seen. I just re-watched it yesterday. I don't remember laughing so hard the previous times I watched the segment. As serious as UM was most of the time, every once in a while it would have an unintentionally funny moment.

Watching that alarm clock go haywire managed to pull off the rare feat of being both funny and creepy at the same time. One laugh out loud moment for me was when the mother was in the kitchen and a glass flew about the room and she (accustomed to it by now) yells "JJJJJOOOOHHHHNNN". Oh, and the tv picture staying on even after the mother turned if off AND unplugged it. Hilarious.

Reminds me of a similar segment where a lady who was also believed to have telekinetic powers was ironing a shirt and was pretty mad at the time and the iron was getting unusually hot, and then she discovered it wasn't plugged in!

Anyways, I've been mulling it over lately and I've concluded that I think Tina did have telekinetic powers. They seem to have subsided by now, but I think she had them at one point. The segment stated that the explanation she gave for staging the falling lamp (to get the media off her back) seemed to satisfy most of her critics.

That was Janine Price who also predicted the death of her sister.....

And, I can't forget the egg breaking behind the actor who played John Resch in the Tina Resch segment.

UMfan77 · 11-21-2006, 12:22 PM

And they also claimed that the egg went THROUGH THE REFRIGERATOR DOOR and flew across the room. Oh, please......

Next time you watch the segment, watch for this. It's funny as heck.

Dear Folks-
Please read up on Tina's case by googling Tina Resch Boyer and reading what James Conrad has posted.
What TracyLynnS says is absolutely correct.
I have personally contacted Tina and am actively working to get this victim of outrageous and horrendous circumstances freed.
I appeal to all of you who have expressed an interest here to get involved. I can assure you first hand that she never sought media attention and that her paranormal case was genuine. My friend who got me involved in this case collaborated with Dr Roll before his death.
Tina was coerced into signing the Alford plea. She was medicated, grieving, alone. The monster who did this to her child was convicted of NEGLECT and has already been freed after serving a 20 year sentence. He is on the streets of Carrolton, Georgia, while she, the victim, is serving life+20. As a mother, I can imagine nothing more devastating than the loss of a child - to lose your child at the hand of a man you thought loved you both, her boyfriend, learning that he had sodomized the child repeatedly before delivering a fatal blow to the head - goes far beyond anything I could possibly imagine.
Please, please, please, do anything in your power to help this poor woman. Currently we are trying to find a pro-bono lawyer to take her case - after 20 years, most anyone she knew on the outside has since died: the parapsychologist, her lawyer....
Her adoptive family was abusive, so whether any of them are still alive is immaterial since she wisely severed contact with them by moving to Georgia.
She is alone in the world. She has us, her virtual community, active in the Free Tina movement and her cellmates, who, she reports, are often woman whose children have died so she feels that God has put her there to be able to offer them comfort and comprehension.
You can write to her directly, write to the Georgia Parole Board, join our Facebook group to keep abreast of the actions we are taking.
Thank you for you concern!

I know! LOL.I always wanted to see the door.I thought it'd have holes in it,if true.but then i noticed the way it was depicted,as if they slid thru.
Come on now...Tina THREW the eggs when her mother wasn't looking!

SPD Yellow · 04-30-2013, 05:23 PM

If it is a hoax, it's got to be the among the strangest hoaxes yet. I mean, I was once a teenager and as a teenager, I was pretty unbearable to be around, but the idea of trying to convince my parents I had supernatural powers never occured to me. Aren't there easier ways of screwing with your parents without pretending to be Carrie White?

scc1222 · 05-01-2013, 01:08 AM

I think her parents were pretty gullible,and Tina was good with slight-of-hand.I really think they didn't want to believe she was doing it,and were looking for any other explanation possible.

SPD Yellow · 05-03-2013, 09:46 PM

Oh I'm fairly certain that Tina was just screwing with her parents but I still think this has to be the strangest hoax ever. As said before, aren't there easier ways of screwing with your parents that don't involve pretending to have supernatural powers?

scc1222 · 05-03-2013, 10:11 PM

well...I think she was quite passive-aggressive.and if you watch the segment again,Tina tells the viewers exactly why she started doing it..she was angry that her teachers were making a big deal about taking her out of the room to give her the meds she needed,instead of just quietly giving them to her.
And then her mother asks if they actually saw Tina throwing the objects,and they said no.I'm guessing just one thing led to another and since she got away w it at school,she started doing it at home whenever she got angry or frustrated.JMO though.Ppl have different ways of coping/taking out frustrations when they want to irritate someone else.

Arnold_OldSchool · 07-31-2014, 01:21 PM

If you read the book by Resch's researchers, there were far too many witnesses for a hoax to have been perpetrated.

She admitted to hoaxing and even got caught perpetrating one of the hoaxes. The following thread has only 12 posts but has a lot of information about Tina during and after the supernatural activity she claimed was happening. Please read it if you get the chance.

Part of a post I made in the linked thread:

Just watched the segment again. A newspaper reporter and his photographer, were invited by the family to interview Tina regarding all the unexplained activity that was happening around her. The photographer snapped the famous flying phone picture.

Once that photo was published, paranormal investigators jumped on the case, requesting permission to study Tina. She admits right in the segment that she faked the episode with the lamp at her mother's urging.

Stack: Tina Resch became a media sensation. One of the reporters generated a different kind of headline when he and his crew caught Tina in the act of hoaxing an episode.

Tina: They kept telling my mother, "Well we're not gonna leave unless we see something happen". And my mom said, "Alright, something's got to happen," because she's getting tired of this and she's not the type of person to be pushy and tell them to leave. So I sat on the chair and knocked the lamp over. My mom [had taken] me in the other room and she said, "We've got to do something," and I said, "okay".

I saw Bigfoot in my backyard last week and a bunch of other people saw it too, so it must have happened.

LETTERL · 08-01-2014, 08:03 AM

Another unintentionally funny moment during that segment was when the mother was describing something that occurred in front of the children. Been a while since I viewed this segment but the line i always remember from it was when the mother said, in all seriousness, "They thought it was a real treat!"
