  • The Clairvoyant's Quest: Unraveling Pat McAdam's Disappearance Part 2
    Sep 8 2025
    This episode of Scottish Murders explores the ongoing investigation into Pat McAdam's 1967 disappearance. Host Dawn recounts journalist Frank Ryan's efforts to keep the case alive, including his collaboration with Dutch clairvoyant Gerard Croiset. Despite Gerard’s detailed visions, no concrete evidence was found. The episode also covers the discovery of an unidentified woman's body near where Pat was last seen, and touches on the broader issue of missing persons in Scotland. Dawn examines the impact of psychic detectives on cold cases and the public's perception of clairvoyance. The narrative sets up for the next episode, which will introduce a potential suspect in Pat's case.
