Psychic Detectives
The Drummond Case This case was presented by Jeffrey Mishlove in his book The Roots of Consciousness and has been corroborated by police officers leading the investigation. While camping with his wife in the countryside, Mr. Drummond, an elderly man, took off for a walk, and didn't return. Very worried, his wife asked the local sheriff for help. In all, three hundred persons volunteered to join the search, but after two weeks not the slightest trace had been found. Six months after the incident, Mrs. Drummond sought out Kathlyn Rhea, a psychic famous for her police work. She recorded a 40-minute cassette of her impressions, which stated that Mr. Drummond had lost all sense of direction and had walked towards the East. She described a gravel road near a cabin in a grove of trees. Then, she continued, Mr. Drummond had suddenly had an attack and fallen down under one of the large thorn bushes of that region. She claimed that the body was still there, and was surprisingly intact. Mrs. Drummond brought the cassette to the sheriff, who decided to try to locate the place with the help of his deputy, before organizing a new search party. Indeed, Kathlyn Rhea's descriptions were so accurate that they had no trouble finding the body. In the deputy's opinion Rhea's impressions had been almost completely correct.
