Use of mediums to help in crime

Posted by: wellyspyder on 17 April 2006

Just been watching some doco on the use of mediums to help resurect leads in cases which have gone unsolved. Some of these cases go back more than 20 years. Pretty convincing but I remain sceptical.

The medium are sometimes just given a photo or a posession of the deceased. The doco depicts the mediums ability to recount the police investigation up to the point when the leads went cold and sometimes further, allegedly producing new avenues of enquiry. Great if it is true. Just hope that the families of these victims are not going to be given false hopes. Anyone got any experience with this?

PS: Obviously, the local copper would deny the use of mediums to help in cases, statement from the doco.

Steve,

(a)I was replying to you and wellspyder, hence my reply straying beyond congenital considerations.
(b)I'm not sure I follow the logic of your claim above.

The brain processes what it is fed by the sense organs and what it can achieve is dependent on the quality of the input. If a person is, say, born deaf, their visual appreciation does not improve - it is still limited by the quality of their eyes. No amount of post-processing can improve on the source.

This is the 'source first' principle that most of us apply to our Naim systems!
