Psychic Receives Threats Over Murder Cases
by Ellen Irvine
A New Zealand psychic reveals she has received threats because of her work on crime-solving cases.
Psychic Sue Nicholson
The Wellington psychic reports she has been warned to stay silent because of what she knows. “The only problem I have had since doing the tv show Sensing Murder is a phone call at 1am from a male who talked about one of the cases,” Sue said. “He said he watched me on the programme and to ‘keep my mouth shut, as you know too much.’”
But the psychic isn’t afraid and won’t let threats keep her from appearing on the top-rating Australian TV2 show.
“I don’t let people like that frighten me, as I will still carry on with the cases even though some cases are with gangs and drug rings,” she said. “I know I am being looked after, otherwise ‘Spirit’ (a supernatural being she says helps her in her crime-solving) would not let me do the work.”
Sue finds working on Sensing Murder emotionally taxing but the death of 12-year-old schoolgirl Agnes Ali’iva’a had a particularly severe effect on her.
She ended up in hospital for a week, spookily suffering a similar ailment to that which killed Agnes.
“After filming that episode I ended up very sick in hospital with water on my lungs,” she said. “I went over to the other side and Agnes was there. I had taken on what she had passed over with, as she had drowned in a ditch. The hospital could not understand that in such a short space of time I had become so ill.”
Sue said she couldn’t explain her condition to doctors, as she had signed a confidentiality agreement with Sensing Murder.
Agnes drowned in a ditch in the Auckland suburb of Mount Roskill in 1992. Police initially thought her death was an accident and it was three days before her body was identified. It wasn’t until four years after her death that a second coroner’s inquest ruled Agnes died under suspicious circumstances. Her case still remains unsolved.
Sue admits working on violent cases can be distressing for the psychics and it’s hard to walk away from them when she goes home to her family.
“Every case I work on upsets me and some are worse then others. When I go into a case, I go and give it all, 100 percent,” she said. “When I come back home, I have to work it through in my own mind and I just want to be left alone. I find my own peace with the person I am working with. I never talk about the case and my family and friends understand that.”
Sue stated that she has a confidentiality contract with the tv show, that does not permit her to speak about it to anyone until the case has been viewed on television.
