Project Jason Policy Regarding Psychics
There is not one proven case in which a psychic, using special powers or abilities not given to the typical person, has located a missing person, whether dead or alive.
It may be possible that some persons have an ability that defies science and logic, but there is no known scientific evidence of this. These persons re-victimize families by taking away hope where it should stand, and giving hope where there is none. No person has the right to do this to another.
Psychics and other users of purported paranormal phenomena, cause unnecessary and damaging pain and anguish to families of the missing.
They can also add to financial stress if they charge fees. We're already on a roller coaster ride of events and emotions, and we should have no desire to add to it.
Understanding what goes on behind the scenes should decrease any guilt feelings for not accepting offers of "help" from these persons, whether it is fee-based or not. We want to lessen the pain already present in our every breath, and arm families with the information to defend themselves against these persons. The evidence that psychics are not helpful and in some cases even harmful, is overwhelming.
In our mission to provide support and assistance to the families of the missing, we stand firm that it is not in their best interest to pursue the use of psychics in their case. We won't ride the status quo train of popular belief that it's ok and is not harmful.
Project Jason stands firm in their policies that since psychics play no proven part in solving a missing personâs case, we will not refer them to family members, family members to them, nor âadvertiseâ their claimed services.

BBM: I am familiar with this via personal experience with my own family member's missing persons case, as well as my experience dealing with the psychics who are on this show. They charge EXHORBITENT fees. Enough said.
I would never discount the complexities and power of the human mind. I believe that some people are quicker to arrive at answers than others for whatever reason. But no self proclaimed psychic has ever solved a case. That is the reality of it.
Thanks for listening to my two cents...
