Theory	Citations	Notes
Mental manipulation can be used to view memories, as well as take them.	None	+ Without the ability to see memories in some fashion, René would have to know exactly what a person had seen/experienced in order to take their memory. If that were true, then René's ability would be far less versatile. - Noah would always tell René which memories to erase; René erased Mohinder's memories of finding and curing him; he erased all of Peter's memories. + In It Takes a Village, Part 4 René describes the experience of seeing all of his father's memories, confirming he can indeed view memories.
Mental manipulation can be used to kill.	None	+ In It Takes a Village, Part 2, René accidentally used his ability on the villagers of his hometown, reducing them to a semi-catatonic state. If this effect were somehow intensified, then the entire brain could be shut down, causing death from massive organ failure. + René did something to Samedi, and it seemed to take a toll on him. Perhaps it was this. + If supercharged, it may indeed shut brain down.
