Are psychic detectives real?
Factual information includes a number of TV documentaries, portrayals in the media, and documented cases and stories where people, using psychic abilities such as telepathy, clairvoyance, or mediumship to assist law enforcement, have helped police.
Use Of Psychics In Law Enforcement (CIA.GOV) “It does appear that some psychics have provided valuable assistance to law enforcement on specific cases.” https://www.cia.gov/readingroom/docs/CIA-RDP96-00788R000100280009-3.pdf
Psychics And Police Work (US Department Of Justice) "The usefulness of psychics in police investigations is controversial, but psychics have long been and will undoubtedly continue to be involved in unsolved criminal investigations." https://www.ojp.gov/ncjrs/virtual-library/abstracts/psychics-and-police-work
Several high-profile cases reveal that psychics have played a role in criminal investigations:
Dorothy Allison – One of the most famous psychic detectives, Dorothy Allison was consulted in various missing person cases, often offering specific details that allegedly assisted law enforcement. For example, she reportedly provided information on the "Son of Sam" serial killings in New York and described a location connected to the crime.
Noreen Renier – Another well-known psychic detective, Noreen Renier has worked with the FBI and law enforcement agencies on more than 400 cases. She wrote a book titled A Mind for Murder detailing her experiences. One notable case was the 1981 disappearance of missing pilot David L. Doyle, where she provided descriptions that investigators found helpful.
Allison DuBois – The TV show Medium is based on the real-life experiences of Allison DuBois, a psychic medium who worked with law enforcement agencies. While the show is fictionalized, DuBois has assisted in solving real crimes with her psychic insights.
Sylvia Browne – The late Silvia Browne gained fame for her psychic readings on various television shows, but she also worked on real missing persons cases and remained a high-profile figure in the field of psychic detection.
Several TV documentaries have explored real-life cases where psychics have claimed to help law enforcement solve crimes. One such series is Psychic Detectives, which aired on Court TV and later TruTV. This show profiles various cases in which psychic detectives have contributed to police investigations. It features interviews with the psychics themselves, law enforcement officials, and victims' families, offering insight into how psychics think they helped.
Another show, Sensing Murder, popular in New Zealand and Australia, uses psychics to investigate unsolved murder cases. The psychics attempt to contact victims or identify new clues that the police might have missed.
While these shows present psychic detectives in a positive light, they also leave room for skepticism, often including law enforcement opinions that cast doubt on the psychics' claims.
Paranormal Cops, though more focused on supernatural phenomena, also features real police officers who investigate paranormal cases and, at times, work with psychics.
If you're interested in hiring a psychic detective, there are several steps to consider. First, research psychics who have a proven track record of working on criminal cases. Some well-known psychics, such as Noreen Renier, offer their services for consultation and have websites where they can be contacted directly. You can also look into professional associations or networks of psychics, such as the National Association of Professional Psychics, which provides a list of professionals with reviews. It’s essential to read testimonials and reviews from people or organizations who have hired the psychic before, as many of the claims made by psychic detectives are anecdotal. Before committing, it's a good idea to arrange a consultation to discuss your case and understand the psychic’s methods. During this consultation, ask how they have assisted in previous cases and what approach they would take for yours. While psychics are not licensed like other professionals, you can still verify their experience by researching any books, talks, or media appearances they have made. Careful consideration is key, as the field of psychic detectives is often viewed with both fascination and skepticism.

Psychic Helps Police Lock Up A Fraudulent Crime Gang
Some years ago the local police department approached me to help them locate a group of people who were defrauding our lending industry. I had left my psychic reading life behind me and become a Real Estate Broker. A psychic being able to locate homes that are valuable as investments is not a bad gig. Not many people in my industry were aware of my background.
I had worked with the police in my youth helping to psychically identify criminals with my ability to sense the connection of a weapon to the owner. I did this type of work voluntarily for about two years in my early 20’s and the local police where I had relocated caught wind of this.
While I was unsure of what exactly I could do, I knew that in doing this I would be safe, but it cost me more that I could have possibly foreseen. The group I was asked to target were attracted to my skill sets and I soon infiltrated their organization. The only problem was I could not get rid of them. They would come to see me at all hours of the day and night. I had relocated multiple times to avoid them because the work I did do was an abusive use of my talents. They sought me out because of my sight. Most of these people lived in fear and I provided comfort at a certain level.
The local authorities I was working with turned their back on me when they found out whom I was dealing with and left me to my fate with subtle reassurance to rid myself of them. While I had suspicions on how deep the rabbit hole was, no one would actually tell me. I knew I had to keep every file, every note everything ever presented to me. So I did for years. Still I felt protected and safe. And I managed to navigate and avoid difficult situations via my intuition. Car theft, break-ins to my home, avoided accidents, avoided thefts. Psychic warning bells if you must. I went untouched for years.
As time went on, I collected information, corporate documentation, and all the information I could above what was needed in an effort to protect myself. It is what I knew I had to do; it was the only thing I could do because I had no evidence to suggest to the contrary and no local officials were willing to do anything to help. I was finally approached by the US Department of Justice to turn evidence on what I had gathered and to offer my assistance as a volunteer federal witness.
During this time I received bad vibes of death of a specific individual whom I later found out was burned to the point of death in an “accidental” car explosion and another bad vibe of death for someone whom, thankfully was taken into custody before they were injured. I was able to explain my thoughts and feelings as to where and when to look and I also was able to describe things I could not possibly have known but did.
Because I felt the people, and was channeling the locations to where they were, the investigating officer made serious accusations about how I was guilty by association. Even though I had not done anything wrong I was forced to lawyer up. I found the only lawyer in my state, via my psychic abilities, who had actually worked at the same office as the investigating officer. A needle in a haystack, impossible, but I found him via my guides, and he was the right man for the job,.
The information I collected via psychic insight and tedious documentation was utilized and used to track a larger operation of people than I had originally suspected. My additional instincts, gut feelings, and visions were utilized properly via this attorney who in turn obtained a letter from the US Department of Justice to my federal volunteer witness standing.
These people caused me to file a 4 million dollar bankruptcy from identity theft, loan fraud, lender fraud and was not limited to the people I was originally asked to help the local police with. It turned out to be lenders, loan officers, and industry officials in addition to parties that were attached to the people I was originally asked to oversee. These people where pawns to a larger part that I was able to connect with unconsciously. These things that happened had to happen to enable the government to do what they needed to do to go after the larger more powerful individuals who defrauded our industry and stole from thousands of people.
I am so thankful for the many angels I have around me each and every day. There is no way I could have possibly navigated this without them.
