Inside Edition's Lisa Guerrero Puts 'Psychic Detectives' To The Test

STUDIO CITY (KCAL9) — Many grief-stricken parents of missing children say they have to deal with what some critics call the second wave of predators-- psychic detectives who claim their visions can help find the child.

But, their information isn't always free, and missing children advocates say they can hinder law enforcement by sending them on wild goose chases.

Inside Edition's Lisa Guerrero and the I-Squad went undercover to put some prominent "psychic detectives" to the test to see if they have the abilities they claim. Do they have a sixth sense, or are they taking advantage of desperate families?

Guerrero stopped by KCAL9 Wednesday to reveal what she found during the undercover investigation.
