An updated and very extensive overview on a fantasy which was given by a woman seen on 11 episodes of the Court TV 'Psychic Detectives' series is at www.amindformurder.com As the only psychic who lectured at the FBI Training Academy and was sanctioned by the FBI's Robert Ressler --- the man who coined the phrase 'serial killer' --- this is a very interesting tear-down of a very, very elaborate facade. A federal court is due to rule anytime on the amount of damages due a skeptical writer who brought a lawsuit --- and won against this leading psychic detective!

Thanks for posting that link, interesting reading. I'm suprised if Ressler is in on her fraud. Yet another reason why I'm skeptical of psychics, a lot of them are no more than attention seekers. I believe Noreen was profiled on UM, right? Was she the one in the Michael Johnson & Rochele Robinson segment?

Nobody should believe Psychics wholesale anyway- there may be some genuine ones but from what I have seen over the years most of it is done through vague questioningand reading peoples emotions

I agree, psychics are bunk. Are there some unexplained phenomena, where people forsee events or having dreams that come true etc..? Sure there are, but for anyone to tell you that they have special powers or have some "method" of eliciting this power, they are simply lying and, most likely, are out for attention and/or fame. John Edward is the most pronounced example. The guy has made mega millions with his con game.
One power all "psychics" do have is the power for quick talking, open ended questioning, and a genuine ability for being believable. Once their techniques are put under a microscope, it becomes obvious they are nothing but clever hoaxters with a penchant for understanding and preying on human credulity. |

There are only several psychics I believe that actually have that power, one of them being that guy in the pizza delivery murder(the girl) and dorothy allison? They seemed legit, all the "psychic" things unsolved mysteries did seemed kind of odd, the ones I'm talking about are the guy who would draw circles on paper and communicate with the dead. People are gullible and buy into that because they so desperately want to communicate with the dead. Since Houdini and his wife had a special code to let her know it was really him, and this code was never revealed in any "psychic" sessions, if that could not happen, then these other "communications" definitely have not happened. Its lame. Sorry my typing is kind of bad and dragging on today haha.

Thanks for the responses. Renier has appeared over the last 25 years on many TV shows, both syndicated and international. But she has gained the most attention recently for 11 episodes on the 'Psychic Detectives' series.
