Psychic into self promotion

Dear Editor:

I was amazed to see a completely credulous piece in the October 25 issue of Interrobang, titled Solving Crimes from the other side regarding self-professed “psychic” Robbie Thomas.

Despite the claims that he often helps in criminal investigations, I believe he has not once provided any information that was even slightly helpful in solving a case. He will gladly tell you of all kinds of correct “hits” he got, such as the “pile of rocks and wagon wheels,” which was apparently similar to the location Tori Stafford's body was found, yet he provides no evidence that this was helpful to anyone, or that any of this is even true. I recommend looking into http://www.stoprobbie.com, which keeps up to date on his activities.

Simply typing his name into Google will bring up numerous hits explaining how despicable many people think he is, and I'd like to think that Interrobang can do better than simply help him promote his books and shows, and perhaps provide something more substantial that a gullible puff piece. Maybe next time.
