Jaycee Dugard, the woman who was abducted at the age of 11 in 1991, was recently discovered living in a virtual prison in the back yard of a couple’s come in Antioch, Calif., as has been widely reported. She had been there for 18 years, confined and horrifically abused, even giving birth to her rapist’s children. They were kept prisoner and isolated, never having attended school or seen a doctor.

Amazingly, a Reno psychic is now claiming the case proves the accuracy of her abilities.

Dayle Schear, who was paid by Jaycee’s parents to help locate their daughter, says she told Jaycee’s mother not to give up searching for her daughter: “I looked her in the eyes and I said… eventually she’ll walk through the door, you’re going to see her again.”

Schear also claims that she correctly described the general area where Jaycee was being held. The psychic’s “information” is typical of what happens when missing persons are eventually found, dead or alive. Psychics come forward years later after the person was found to make retroactive claims about how they “knew” certain pieces of information.

Yet the psychics conveniently ignore the fact that their information was either wrong or so general and vague that it was useless. If Shear’s psychic powers told her that this poor girl was being kept in the most horrific conditions

I don’t see why a psychic should be expected to find a missing person’s exact whereabouts.

What do you make of the fortune tellers in the Lindbergh case who correctly predicted when they would receive ransom notes and the name of the person who would be chosen as the go-between? Not only that—

Mary Cerrito state in substance that the baby was in a house 4 and a half miles northwest of the Lindbergh house (more than two months later the baby’s body was found about four and one-half miles southeast of the Lindbergh house). ...

The LE skeptics were obviously taken in, not believing the psychics had inside info, because they pinned everything on Hauptmann.
