Police departments across the country routinely get tips from self-professed mediums, particularly in high-profile cases. The claims don’t always pan out, as was the case with psychic Sylvia Browne. Another psychic says, ‘I don’t claim to solve the crimes. Police do. I give information.'
In 2004, self-proclaimed psychic Sylvia Browne had a heartbreaking message for the mother of Amanda Berry, one of the three Cleveland kidnapping victims.
