Diane Lazarus attempts to help solve the Suffolk murders.

Only due to her lack of psychic powers she didn't see the arrest of Tom Stephens being made on the same day.

I've stuck a rant up on the commentary: http://www.ukskeptics.com/commentary_display.php?d=12-06#Ipswich_murders

I was actually going to start a thread asking whether any psychics had come forward yet. Good old Diane to the rescue!

Feckin' amoral parasite. >:(

I hate credophiles.

However, you might want to adjust the phrasing of the commentary slightly -- "Tom Stephens has not yet been convicted" implies that he is guilty. He may very well be the culprit, but then again he may not, and we certainly shouldn't be making any assumptions at this stage.

Well spotted. O0

I don't know how the 'yet' got in there (freudian slip?) as I was meaning to point out that he has not actually been found guilty so it's not certain that he is - although it does seem highly likely.

That reporter's article is absolutely shocking!

I felt the need to comment on that as much as on Lazarus's attempt to cash in.

It's gullible reporting like this that allows psychics to get away with their detestable trade in self publicity.

If these psychics are so good at solving crimes, how come there's never been a headline "Psychic solves murder and wins lottery at the same time"?

;D

Ah, great minds clearly think alike, John! I put a very similar rant of the JREF forum yesterday, and have been annoyed that I haven't had time to put a longer piece together on it, so I am overjoyed that you have.

Has anyone complained to the newspaper about this report?

[Admin]

I didn't contact the writer as I thought it would be a waste of time.

I just like to do what I can to expose the stupidity.

We should nominate him for a fiction writer's award. ;D

Is she out of her mind??!!

A 'hoodie' who is engaged in ritual religious sacrifice? A HOODIE??!!

Yeah, cause they're well known for their religious zealotry.

Frickin' stupid woman. She isn't even clever enough to invent a plausible prediction.

[Admin]

I think that we should get a campaign together to free the 'Suffolk Two'.

Obviously the police have got it wrong and should be looking for a puritanical hoodie! ;D

Young hoodies are getting older these days.
