In Durham, Oregon, yet another exhausted police department has been persuaded by a murder victim’s family to allow a psychic to aid them after they hit a dead-end in the investigation. No word yet on whether Laurie McQuery, who became psychic after a horseback riding accident, has been able to provide the police with any useful information; it is also unclear whether the horse was psychic, and died in the accident, and then passed it’s spirit on to McQuery. I can’t answer that with absolute certainty but based on my limited knowledge of clairvoyant livestock, I would have to say yes, definitely.
Remember those miners who were trapped back in January? I was listening to a radio interview with notorious psychic detective Sylvia Brown that final night when, through some tragic miscommunication, the media reported that just one miner had died and 12 had survived. The host broke the news during his interview with Sylvia, and asked her if that was the outcome she predicted. “Oh, I knew they would be found,” she happily replied. A short time later the media issued a correction: Only one miner had survived, the rest had died. The radio host asked Sylvia to explain why her psychic powers had failed. In a flash she pulled a Spandex leotard over her leathery, makeup-caked flesh and performed an impressive, if poorly executed backflip, stating that she had “said they would be found, but never said they would be found alive.”
As for the murder victim in Durham, I’m going to have to guess she’s near water, and… I see… green, plants or trees, I think. What’s that? They already found the body in a basement, and now they’re just looking for the killer? Oh. Well I think the killer is near water, by a tree.

Hey CrimGirl,
great looking blog. I am just getting mine started and writing to let you know I have added your blog to my blogroll.
Im looking for a few quality sites that are not too serious to list :)
Hope the student loans are getting smaller ;)
What’s up CrimGirl?
Our mutual friend turned me on to your site here and I must say I have very mixed feelings after reading through much of the home page (okay, I checked out your profile page too; I am only a man after all). I find your writing to be extremely engaging and outlandishly amusing. But the lack of updates is killing me. I would love to hear your opinions and observations regarding recent developments in American politics. Especially with regard to some of the GOPs more outrageous “resignations”. Anyway, keep up the good work and I look forward to reading more about the interesting world of criminology.
