A former CIA psychic has claimed he had already told police where the body of missing French toddler Émile Soleil would be found before the horror discovery on Saturday.
Major Ed Dames, 74, said he had used a technique called ‘remote viewing’ to locate the two-year-old in the idyllic Alpine hamlet of Le Vernet after his sudden disappearance from his grandparents’ home last July.
The method, used by US and Soviet agents during the Cold War, ostensibly sees psychics access ‘remote geographic targets otherwise inaccessible’, ‘looking into the distance and the future’ merely by thinking.
Maj Dames showed The Sun emails he had sent to police last December claiming Émile was ‘located at, or in proximity to’ a field next to the site where ramblers found the bones and skull on March 31.
‘It took me two days,’ he told the newspaper. ‘I jumped on it immediately. I knew this is a serious case and the sense of urgency is high.’
Maj Dames worked as an operations and training officer at the joint CIA and Army Psychic Intelligence Unit, a now-defunct project that inspired the book and 2009 black comedy ‘The Men Who Stare at Goats’.
The bones and skull of young Émile were found by walkers on Saturday ‘on a path between the Church and Chapel’ of the quiet Alpine village of Le Vernet, according to mayor François Balique.
The site, barely a kilometre from where Émile disappeared while staying with his grandfather in July, had already been scoured by gendarmes with a ‘tooth comb’, the mayor told Le Figaro.
