Little invited Malone to consult on the case. She was given a bangle that had been found on Scott’s body. Simply by holding the object, she was able to give specific details about the case, according to the Daily Telegraph. Malone reportedly led authorities to the location where the murder had occurred, pointing out blood on the walls and even directing authorities to look in the drainpipe, where they discovered the knife that had been used to take Scott’s life. Even more strangely, she told detectives that she could feel the spirit of the killer walking through her, which told her that the killer himself had since passed on, since she could only feel ghosts walking through her, according to Reader’s Digest. This revelation only confirmed authorities’ suspicious that Mark Brown had been the killer, since he had committed suicide four years before.
“Her description of what happened was so close to what we had found, I included it in the coroner’s brief. I don’t know whether he took any notice of it but she was brilliant. She told us how the body was positioned in the bush where it was found and what Maria was wearing,” Little said, via the Daily Telegraph, adding “What we hadn’t told her was that the key suspect had actually committed suicide. I was extremely skeptical at first but then I couldn’t explain how she knew these things when all we gave her was a bangle.”
