Two teenage girls came for an appointment that I was sure was going to be a breeze. Prom dates, high school gossip, maybe college plans.

But the moment they sat down in my reading room, I saw a girl between them. Her swollen eye was bashed in, her cheekbone was broken, and her neck was covered in bruises. She’d clearly been murdered.

“Who’s Janet?” I asked.

The girls started screaming, “Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God!”

The night of the prom Janet had been found strangled in the dirt.

“But Janet says it’s not the newspaper guy who did it. Not the black man they put in jail. I can see white hands on her throat.”

The girls were screaming again.

“Steven killed her. She needs you to know that.”

Now the girls were clutching each other, crying and shaking.

It turned out that a deliveryman who was kind of slow and disabled had been coerced into a confession and locked up. But Steven, a boy they all went to school with, had disappeared a month after the murder. He’d been stalking Janet.

The girls were hysterical, calling their mothers and their friends on their cell phones. But what could they do? A psychic’s testimony wasn’t evidence enough to reopen a murder case.
