Audrey May Herron's story in psychic series

For quite a while now, Project Jason's Voice for the Missing blog has been featuring stories on psychic involvement in missing persons cases. Some of them featured guest writers talking about their own experiences, and the most recent one was Audrey May Herron's best friend, Marie Parker. She talked about the experience she had on the Montel Williams show during an episode with notorious psychic Sylvia Browne. Read her post at http://voice4themissing.blogspot.com/2006/03/33106-pmp-sylvia-and-friends-part-ii.html. It includes a link to to video of the episode from their website.
For more info on Audrey, see my previous post on her at http://betweenlifeanddeath.blogspot.com/2006/03/audrey-may-herron-florida-story-false.html. The photo accompanying this post comes from the Charley Project, which features a complete profile of Audrey at http://www.charleyproject.org/cases/h/herron_audrey.html.
