ASHBURN — No one can explain how or why the body of a missing Turner County man coincidentally floated up as a woman who claims to be psychic visited a pond police had already searched.

The body of Greg Wallace, 30, was found Saturday in a pond just feet away from his car that had been discovered days earlier. Wallace had been reported missing on March 14 after leaving his mother’s house in Turner County enroute to work in Tifton. He never made it. Wallace’s light brown two-door 1984 Chevy Monte Carlo was found a couple of days later in a field driveway off Highway 41 between Tifton and Sycamore. The hood was up and the keys were in the ignition, authorities in Turner County said.

Authorities began searching the area where Wallace’s car was found, but were unable to turn up anything.

On Saturday, Lynn Ann Maker, a Cedar Rapids, Iowa, psychometrist, visited the area and says she was drawn to the pond.

Appearing in a segment on KCRG-TV9 out of Cedar Rapids, Maker said she may have simply been in the right place at the right time, but she is the one who called 911 after finding Wallace’s body.

Maker said the difference between psychics and psychometrists is that she has to touch personal items to receive her visions.

She was given a shirt of Wallace’s and said on camera, “I spent probably two hours with his jersey.”

While at the pond, Maker used her audio recorder to tape her thoughts saying, “I do get a feeling of passing on, of death.”

During her search, Maker said Wallace’s body simply started floating to the top.

“It kept rising,” she said in her interview. “And I could see part of his ear and the back of his neck.”

Authorities investigating the death aren’t too sure what to call it. Coincidence? Maybe not.
