A police chief in Rhode Island gives out some unorthodox advice for
those who have lost a loved one: Seek a connection to the afterlife by
meeting with a medium.
John LaCross, the police chief in the Providence suburb of
Barrington, lost his 21-year-old brother Joey to suicide nearly 40 years
ago. Seeking comfort, he began meeting with people calling themselves
mediums, but it wasn't until 2000 that he met someone he says gave him
evidence of an afterlife.
Years later, he met with another medium who he says correctly
described his brother's timing and cause of death, down to the manner:
hanging. "But can you give me his name?" LaCross said he asked.
"It's a J name; Joseph," LaCross said the medium responded.
After that, he started keeping his brother's picture in his patrol
car, talking to him and asking him for signs. Later, a different medium,
he said, confirmed his brother was sending him messages.
LaCross said that medium called him out of the blue after a year of
no contact — just after LaCross had asked his brother whether he was on
the right spiritual path — with a message from his brother that yes, he
was.
A police chief's guidance to the grieving: Go see a medium
Welcome to H&C,,, where I aggregate news of interest. Primary topics include abuse with "the church", LGBTQI+ issues, cults - including anti-vaxxers, and the Dominionist and Theocratic movements. Also of concern is the anti-science movement with interest in those that promote garbage like homeopathy, chiropractic and the like. I am an atheist and anti-theist who believes religious mythos must be die and a strong supporter of SOCAS.
