Not so long ago, I met with a client who wanted to speak to her
dead best friend and it was clear from the moment she sat down that it wasn’t
going to be a straight forward reading.
It’s normal for me to know nothing about a new client or why
they come to see me and this case was no exception. As I began describing how I work and what
clients can generally expect from a reading of this kind, I could feel a woman (dead)
standing to my right and I felt sure this was the woman my client wanted to
speak with.
So, here is the story; my client’s best friend died in an
accident while she was enjoying some time with her boyfriend. There was a crash
and the boyfriend was thrown from the scene but the girlfriend was trapped and
was unable to escape. The boyfriend was in a state of shock and found himself
unable to do anything to help. He wasn’t able to call for help for almost five
hours after the accident. Unfortunately, the girlfriend was dead by this point.
Hmmm, well there is nothing weird about that, these things
happen and that’s what the police also thought. It’s a tragic accident.
OK, back to my client, I provided strong evidence that it
was her best friend that was with us and we moved on. The dead person who we
shall call Kari came through to me so very clearly and her energy was so strong
that there was no mistaking what she was saying, “This was no accident”. Kari
went on to say that she had been beaten by her boyfriend a number of times during
their relationship and this wasn’t an unusual thing. The best friend was
already aware of the abuse. On this particular day, Kari and boyfriend had had
another fight and he had beaten her in such a way that it was clearly visible to
anyone looking at her. The boyfriend, an intensely jealous man with an anger
issue, was concerned about how his girlfriend looked and that people would notice
what he had done, public opinion was important to the boyfriend.
Without going into every aspect of the accident, I can tell
you that Kari described the incident in devastating detail, leaving very little
to the imagination. Kari showed that the boyfriend tried to make the situation
appear as an accident when in fact it was engineered to cover up what he had
done to her and to prevent her from speaking out about him. Kari talked about
seeing her boyfriend sitting to the side, away from the scene, watching and
waiting. Through her eyes, he was waiting for her to definitely be dead . . .
and then, almost five hours later, he phoned the police. Kari was trapped,
unable to breath, unable to escape and according to her, the boyfriend just sat
there waiting.
This is still an ongoing case for the Norwegian Police and
although the boyfriend has been arrested, the case against him is not for
murder and it is expected that he will serve no more than 8 months in prison if
convicted.
I saw all of the events play out through her eyes, I felt
her shock, turn to horror, then panic followed by a frustrated resignation and
finally relaxation. Kari left me with the absolute feeling that she wanted the
truth to be brought to light and for her young children left behind to know
what this man did to their Mother.
Of course, there is still a great deal of anger in Kari and
I am sure it is justified but other than bringing her message to the best friend
that came to see me, what can I do? Nothing. For me to stand up, visit the
Police and let them know what Kari has told me would have no effect. It would
not help the legal argument in any way. I don’t believe Mediums and especially
psychics, should be involved in legal argument. The role we have to play is
providing evidence that our loved ones are still with us, provide assistance to
friends and loved ones when needed and offer a no nonsense, clear, unbiased,
filter-free communication with those that are already dead.
Today, the boyfriend now has a new partner and freely
wanders around his home town. My client, found an understanding of what had
happened, it confirmed some thoughts and denounced others but ultimately she
felt relief that her best friend was still with her and could still look out
for her children.
