Another media event is complete and now uploaded in our "Media" section. I want to thank Michael Nayt and his listeners for having me on this wonderful program. This night was an hour long blogradio program hosted by Michael Nayt and covered a question and answer session lasting an hour long. I enjoyed it very much and it's now available for you to hear as well. 

Coming soon, besides all of the other events ongoing here lately, we will be letting you know of some more investigations for you to follow here. So stay tuned.

Shortly, the Time Warner program should be complete for upload in the media section. Most likely with in a week or so. In the meantime, we've been contacted by another media outlet.  "The Michael Nayt Show" will stream with a live broadcast on Saturday the 13th of this month with a series of questions and answers with yours truly. The link and schedule is listed here. http://www.blogtalkradio.com:80/the-unusual

I want to thank everyone who has contacted us in regards to joining our team. As mentioned earlier, we are currently not accepting new recruits at this time.

In the coming months we will open again to try out new members.

We have finally passed the wait time for uploading the ADR video and interview. Again, because of the length of production allowed to ADR, a lot of information and video was chopped. But the final product was wonderful. And thanks again to the crew of ADR.

It's now uploaded in the media section. Please read the intro in that section before watching or playing the audio. Thanks so much for your patience. It is in German voice over, so our investigators and interviewed particpants may be hard to understand.

Coming this Friday another interview will be conducted with Time Warner broadcasting company. We will let you know how this turns out and upload the contents to our media section as well.

Wonderful night and the session with ADR is complete. It's in the editing phase now and should be completed sometime this week, and I will upload the final product here.

Breakdown of events: Filming from start to finish lasted about 5 1/2 hours. Well worth it! I won't go into every detail otherwise you'll know it all before it's released.

Cemeteries are not a favorite of mine, I find them useful in training purposes only, of equipment and safety. It is rare but not uncommon to get evidence from cemeteries, and last night was one of those cases. We not only acquired a class "A" evp from our own equipment, but we were able to catch a couple things on film. However it wasn't CPI's equipment that captured this event on film, it happened to be ADR's cameraman that was in the right place at the right time. Again, you'll have to wait and see.

I am going to reveal the evp here in this article and also upload it to the "EVP" section as well. The evp below is staff member Carrie asking a question, several seconds later she gets a male response of "no." Following the "no" you'll hear some faint whispering of which Carrie also mentions she's hearing in her headphones, but we were unable to make it out.



I want to finish this preface by saying the staff of ADR was wonderful, professional and efficient.

I have opened the "media" tab within this site now. It will be filled shortly as we are proud to announce the following: German tv (ADR) has requested to follow our group on an investigation and training session of our equipment for an upcoming tv broadcast. I was contacted by the producer/correspondent of ADR based out of Los Angeles. We were offered an english version of the finished product of which we will upload to the "media" section when completed. 

In addition you will be able to see our crew face to face for the first time. Now while this may not excite you, we here at CPI are very pleased to bring this to you. We've been investigating in this field for years, and while the majority of our cases are confidential, we do release some evidence or non evidence from various investigations from time to time.

We will announce it here when this is complete. The investigation and ADR meeting will take place on none other than Friday 13th of this month. Stay tuned.

I've received many emails and calls regarding open positions for investigators here. I've filed them in first come first serve basis. I wish I could try everyone out, however certain cases just don't allow training on. Residential investigations are difficult to train as they are priority cases.

I will at some point set up a cemetery investigation and conduct training this way. It's easier to show you the equipment and test it in an open environment. just letting you know to not worry, we haven't forgotten you.

Now back to other news regarding my own property. After some ongoing disturbances I have come to the conclusion that there is something going on here. I was sitting at my desk working when my dog, who never barks or growls, decided to get upset. At the same time the lids to the pots on the island clanked. I turned and he was staring into the kitchen. I got up and began snapping pictures immediately, only to come across one picture that stood out and puts whatever was there, in the same spot my dog was seeing it as well. Pic below.



Check directly above the island and below the lights. Again I'm no fan of orbs, however my 3 step method seems to have worked here. Dog reacted, clanks and bangs then the picture. You be the judge.

Just because news has been scarce here, doesn't mean we've gone.

It just goes to show, even the most experienced investigators run into issues that become personal. I've had encounters and spirits around me most of my life. Some are precognition dreams which came to reality.

This is one of those cases where spirit activity has invaded my new home. The home was built new in 1986. I know some of the history of the home, however it appears no deaths occurred in the house itself. That made my gears switch to the property. After several hours checking into the land, I came across the Soboba Indian tribe. The land was sacred decades ago. There is also a wash that runs to the north about a 1/2 mile from my home, which was a settlement of some type. I don't know of deaths on the land first hand, but it makes sense during that time, battles for the land would take place. Thus the possibility of deaths or burial grounds around or on my property.

I will be doing a blessing and cleansing soon as this now effects my grand daughter who is 2 years old. And as most of us know, children and animals have an acute sense to paranormal. She's been reacting and interacting with whatever is there. In fact, we all have experienced something with in the home since the day we moved in. At this point I don't feel threatened, but anytime a child is involved it's best to bless the home or land.

I will keep you up to date of any developments.

2-9-2009
I have received many emails and read numerous websites and even some televised programs, questioning why all the paranormal activity now? A few things to keep in mind, Is there really an increase in activity of late? Or did the flooding of paranormal programming increase our awareness to these events? Some have stated the end of time as we know it has a lot to do with the increase. Some state the end of civilization in 2012 as some skeptics have viewed as the end, could be a reason spirits have become more active, in guiding us until that time.

I however, feel the media has peaked our attention. Since the dawning of the first paranormal program, thousands of paranormal groups emerged. Followed by hundreds of news accounts, tv shows, you name it. The spiritual world has always existed. However in decades gone by, it was a topic that was rarely discussed. Some would view you as a "nut" or an attention getter, fraud, fake, etc. By today's standards it appears to be more accepted and intriguing to most. While we will never know the real answer, as long as there is life and death, we will be surrounded by the spiritual world. It is not something to fear, but to learn from.

We will be bringing you new cases shortly so stay tuned. If you have a case you wish us to investigate, please email us. We're always here to help.
