One of the most controversial aspects of law enforcement occur when police investigators use psychics to provide information in solving crimes. Back in 1993, a Montana couple named John and Nancy Bosco were brutally murdered in their bed. Strangely enough, three people involved in the murder claim to have had psychic visions of the crime: the victim's mother, a famous psychic his mother hired, and the murderer himself.
