“DPS officials had obtained the warrant”
On the basis of a freaking “psychic” report?
That’s why you should just sit back for a couple of days to see what happens with news stories; which is just that - stories.
Kinda odd that they would react that way to a psychic tip unless the psychic has been right more than a few times in the past.
Something is very wrong here.
I think they got the warrant based on the blood on the porch.
An earlier report indicated that there was blood at the sight and a rotten smell.
>On the basis of a freaking psychic report?
That was the basis of the TV show “Medium” where the psychic worked at the DA’s office.
then the MAD TV spoof...

Did the Stasi ever need more?

Yeah, a lot of move along, nothing really really really to see here!
Or just a prank. Guess we need a second psychic to pick up where the first one left off.
Why did the police consider the “psychic” reliable?
Once before a judge would accept a certain dog’s ability to follow a scent, he made it follow another scent through a concert site
where 30,000 people had been. When the dog passed that test, he was willing to accept that it had the ability to follow a scent.
On what basis did the police think this psychic had any ability? Was the psychic rich from sports betting (wins every time)? Was the psychic rich from playing the stock market and commodities futures?

We seem to be stuttering...
How did this get picked up as a national news story in the first place?
Even to merely question people, there must be “reasonable suspicion”, with specific reasons which can be articulated. Hunches, notions, forebodings, visions etc. will not do it. To go further requires probable cause . . .
The narrative here does not make sense. None.
This nut case should have to reimburse law enforcement for the expense that her hallucination caused. It was probably a bid for publicity since there aren’t many customers for fortune tellers with the bad economy.
Just reiterating for those who don’t get it the first time.
Sounds like there was a phoned-in tip, to which somebody responded and found blood on the porch and a foul smell coming from inside.
That sounds good enough to go back and get a warrant, to me. That the tip came from a “psychic” doesn’t really make much difference it seems, based on those facts.
So..it’s not Bush’s fault?
