This talk was given by Benjamin Radford at an event sponsored by the National Capital Area Skeptics on April 14, 2009.
Psychic detectives seem to be everywhere on TV. Many of them claim to find missing persons, and solve cases for police and the FBI. But how good is the evidence for their claims? Drawing on a decade of personal investigations and case studies, Benjamin Radford will reveal a side of psychic detectives that you won't see on Medium or Larry King Live.
The talk includes a discussion about an episode of The Biography Channel's program Psychic Investigators entitled "Vision of Murder." For copyright reasons, we cannot include clips from the show.

Benjamin Radford is the managing editor of Skeptical Inquirer Magazine.
