Opis

Every news story, book, movie or television program about the investigation that led to Ted Bundy's capture in Florida, are solely based on information the Leon County Sheriff's Department wanted the trial jury and general public to believe. Only four men knew the truth about what really happened. After Bundy's execution in 1989, one of those men, George C. Brand Jr., gave an exclusive interview detailing how after the investigators exhausted every resource they had, they turned to unconventional ones: psychics. Following Ted Bundy's capture, the psychic files were locked away under Brand's care so that no reporters or defense attorneys could ever discover them. At 3:25 am, January 15, 1978, Leon County Sheriff's Department dispatch sent George Brand to investigate a double homicide at the Chi Omega sorority house. Sheriff Ken Katsaris assigned Brand as the lead investigator on the case and the task force commander. The day after the murders, his team received a tip that a local psychic Kelly Powers had told his students he was having visions of an evil, eminent deadly attack against the Chi Omega Sorority, even naming of one of the victims. On the third day of the investigation, Richard, a Florida State University student, the only psychic to voluntarily walk into the Taskforce command post, offered to help solve the case-but only if he worked in secret with Brand. Richard was quickly nicknamed Brand's 'Hippie Psychic.' As the thousands of leads dried up, suspicions gravitated toward the two psychics. Powers had many students; had one of them heard his prediction and carried it out to increase Powers's prestige? And Richard's knowledge of the victims' wounds were extensive, including details only the killer, or killers could possibly know. Soon the Hippie Psychic predicted another murder. A renown criminal psychologist working with the sheriff's department was not only absolutely certain Richard was part of the Chi Omega murders, but was about to thrill kill again and had to be stopped at all costs. Based on exclusive interviews and over 3600 pages of never-before-seen files from the Leon County Sheriff's Department, The Secret Psychic Files reveals the bizarre and frightening story behind the news reports and creatively shows the readers what really happened during the Chi Omega murder investigation that led to the capture, conviction and execution of Ted Bundy.
