During the mid-eighties in the United States, Tina Resch, a bullied 14 year-old foster child, received press attention for spontaneous psychokinesis on a large scale. She was later dismissed as a hoax by the media, though several witnesses and members of the scientific community maintain the telekinesis was real.

At 16 Tina was thrown out of home and married to avoid being sent to juvenile detention. The relationship quickly turned violent and she escaped to a woman’s shelter, while he stole her savings.

At 22 she arrested for the murder of her daughter. Her new boyfriend, David Herrin, who was the only person with her daughter at the time of her death, was also arrested. After spending two and a half years in prison without trial, and under the guidance of a overworked lawyer whom she rarely saw, Tina made a plea bargain for life with no parole to avoid the electric chair.  Herrin, who admitted to sodomising the child, was subsequently charged with cruelty to children, he will be released in 2012.

Tina has currently spent over 17 years in a prison.
