A Maine psychic helping a family with a nearly 40-year-old cold case managed to locate human remains at a specific location that she sensed, though the body turned out to be someone else. The remarkable story reportedly began back in 1986 when 17-year-old Kimberly Moreau disappeared from the community of Jay. Over the ensuing decades, her family has tirelessly searched for the missing teen in all manner of ways, including working with local psychic Laurencia Bourget, who phoned Kimberly's father, Dick, this past Saturday with some surprising news.
Recounting the call to a local TV station, he explained that the medium indicated that she "had a very strong feeling" about a wooded area behind an abandoned bowling alley in the community. "There was something up there," Moreau recalled, "but she wasn't sure what it was." Intrigued by the unexpected development, the family waited for Bourget to arrive and subsequently set about searching the strangely sensed spot. Amazingly, he said, "we went up and the results were she was right" as, after about ten minutes of looking around the location, they found some skeletal remains.
Police were promptly called to the scene where the body, which was undeniably located by the psychic, was removed for examination. Alas, in a tragic twist that captures the mystifying and maddening nature of mediumship, a forensic expert was able to quickly determine that the remains were those of a man and, therefore, not Kimberly Moreau. While Dick is understandably disappointed that the discovery did not provide the closure that they have sought for so long, he expressed contentment that some other family in a similarly painful situation.
