Sylvia Browne's website is promoting her involvement with a murder case:
That contains a link to this page, which is the posting of the Dateline video and trancript. (That link is an attempt by Browne to benefit from publicity of a murder.)
I previously posted about the O'Keefe case here with more information. In sum, O'Keefe was killed February 22, 2000 and on November 3, 2000 the Montel Williams Show aired with her parents talking to Browne. According to that article, "Although Brown claims to have helped law enforcement agencies around the United States, local homicide investigators said they were skeptical of her abilities." The Montel show was taped on what would have been O'Keefe's 19th birthday.
In 2000 O'Keefe was killed and a security guard working the parking lot claims to witnessed the murder. After telling contradictory stories and giving more information that what he had, he was considered a suspect within months. In December 2009, he was found guilty.
Timeline
1) February 22, 2000:
Michelle O'Keefe is murdered.
2) Shortly after:
Raymond Lee Jennings, the only witness and the security guard on duty, gave contradictory statements and more information than he should have known.
3) "Within months":
Raymond Lee Jennings becomes a suspect.
4) October 11, 2000:
The parents are taped for a Montel show with Browne who said a "Lee or Leon" was involved. This would have been Michelle's 19th birthday.
5) November 3, 2000
The Montel with Browne episode aired (link).
6) December 2000:
The parents file a wrongful-death lawsuit against Raymond Lee Jennings.
7) November 15, 2005:
Raymond Lee Jennings charged with the murder.
8) December 19, 2009
Raymond Lee Jennings was found guilty of murder.
Was Browne of any help? (Notice how Browne doesn't even make the claim that she helped the family, only that Browne appeared on the show.)
Well, Browne didn't appear to be any help because:
The police suspected Jennings, the only witness, was the killer shortly after the crime. But it took nine years to find him guilty using his own words. Browne seems to have gotten one of his names correct (though he gave two, only one matched his), but he was long considered a suspect and the parents were in the process of suing him when they appeared with Browne.
In 2000, on what should have been Michelle's 19th birthday, her parents spent the day with Browne filming a Montel episode. In 2010, Browne celebrates her involvement on her website with the link above.
