text: There have been no cases in which a psychic was praised by the FBI or a US national law enforcement agency for helping to solve a crime, despite claims to the contrary by some psychics.  In England:\n\n"Scotland Yard never approaches psychics for information. There are no official police psychics in England. The Yard does not endorse psychics in any way. There is no recorded instance in England of any psychic solving a criminal case or providing evidence or information that led directly to its solution." (Inspector Edward Ellidon)\n\nIn LA:\n\n"The LAPD has not, does not and will not use psychics in the investigation of crimes, period. If a psychic offers free information to us over the phone, we will listen to them politely, but we do not take them seriously. It is a waste of time." (Dan Cooke, PR)\n\nIn Australia:\n\nVictoria Police spokeswoman Sergeant Creina O'Grady said:\n "No. The Homicide Squad deals in factual evidence not psychic."
