Learn about the complicated relationship between police and psychic detectives in this episode; and a little bit about the John Wayne Gacy case and much more.

In this fourth installment of our Walk in the Shadows Psychic Detective series, we explore how law enforcement agencies view working with psychic detectives.

It is a delicate dance between the psychic, the law enforcement agencies and the public to which they are beholden. Learn about the ups and downs this can cause on a case as we proceed through this episode.

We’ll briefly cover testimonials, police publications, and even a police officer who is also a psychic detective. We also briefly dip into another famous serial killer case that involved not one, but two psychic detectives: John Wayne Gacy.

Finally, you will be introduced to Beverly Jaegers. She was a very successful psychic detective who taught herself ESP. More importantly, she formed the first supergroup of psychic detectives that went on to solve numerous crimes.

There is still one more episode to come in this series and we really hope you enjoy what’ it’ll cover as much as you’ve enjoyed the rest of this series.
