Brazilian Vision

Why didn't he foresee he wasn't getting this reward and stop sending the letters?


If he sues in the US and can get this to the 9th circuit court he probably has a good chance of success. That group loves the supernatural as long as it doesn't involve Jesus.

A Brazilian court will consider a psychic's claim that the United States Government owes him a $US25 million ($33 million) reward for information he says he provided on the hiding place of the ousted Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein.

Brazil's second-highest court, the Superior Court of Justice, ruled the Brazilian justice system could rule on the matter and told a court in the psychic's home state of Minas Gerais to judge the case.

The lower court had earlier told Jucelino Nobrega da Luz his claim would have to be judged in the US.

A Superior Court of Justice spokesman said: "Jucelino da Luz alleges that the US armed forces only found Saddam based on his letters that provided his exact location, the very hole where he was hiding in Iraq."

The US Government offered the reward in July 2003 after US-led forces occupied the country. He was captured that December.

The court said Mr da Luz sent letters to the US Government from September 2001, describing Saddam's future hiding place - a tiny cellar at a farmhouse near Tikrit. He never received a reply."His lawyers attest that the author has an uncommon gift of having visions of things that will come to pass. Via dreams, he sees situations, facts that will happen in the future," a court statement said.
