Paul Williams: The Psychic Conman

Paul Williams was a British psychic and fraudster who gained notoriety in the 1990s for his alleged abilities to communicate with the dead. He claimed to have helped police investigations by communicating with the victims of crimes, and he also appeared on television shows such as "Psychic Friends Network" and "Crossing Over with John Edward." However, Williams's claims were eventually exposed as fraudulent, and he was convicted of fraud and sentenced to prison. Despite his conviction, Williams continued to maintain his innocence, claiming that he was the victim of a miscarriage of justice.
