| 0:00.0 | A dark future. I'm Jason Horton. I'm Rebecca Leib. And this is Ghost Town. |
| 0:19.8 | In April of 2006, 17-year-old Richard Kelly, a troubled teen and a young gang member from |
| 0:25.2 | Limerick Ireland went missing. Panicked, Richard's mother sought the assistance of Dennis Mackenzie, |
| 0:31.1 | a clairvoyant who does pro bono psychic reads for missing persons. When Mackenzie meditated on |
| 0:36.1 | the case, he saw a vision. Richard's body, with a concrete slab beside it, next to a bridge. |

| 1:39.5 | in a bind. Of course, the government has tested psychic capabilities for years as well. |
| 1:44.4 | We did an episode on the Stargate project while back. And while skeptics again, abound, |
| 1:49.6 | psychics and those they've helped will swear upon certain unseen powers and abilities, |
| 1:54.0 | helping bring heinous crimes to justice. Complicated, fascinating, and hard to explain, |
| 2:00.2 | let's at least dig in a bit and try. Today, we're talking about some cases solved, at least in |
