The evidence is hearsay because the investigator cannot prove what was revealed by the divination. I suppose testimony could be given in a zone of truth, but that would raise the cost of prosecution even higher.Which means that divination is only useful when investigating very high-value crimes, and when the investigation and repercussion are to be executed by the same individual. A highly-skilled, highly trusted individual. Think fantasy James Bond. Now that provides some interesting opportunities, especially considering such private agents would not always be operating strictly in the interests of the law, so much as in the interests of their employers, who may or may not represent the law. Send one of these guys after the PCs for unknowingly bumping off the godson of a powerful and corrupt figure and you've got some times ahead.</blockquote>
