I'm writing an article on Jackie Barrett and her "psychic detective" work. I've been looking for all the information that I can about this woman and I wanted to know if anyone has heard of her or is familiar with her "work". She came in second place in America's Psychic Challenge and was recently featured in the WeTV series "Secret Lives of Women: Psychics." Needless to say, she hasn't applied to take the million dollar challenge.
I found a multitude of sources on her and have put together several pages of notes. I can't post links yet, so I won't post everything. Here is a sample of what I have so far. These notes were mostly taken from her website The House that Kay Built (she also published a book with the same title).
If you can find any of the sources that I can't substantiate I'd really appreciate your help.
"First off, she doesn't know how to use spell check on her website and has a very poor command of grammar. Seriously, she constantly uses "there" when she means "their".
She frequently states that she works closely with retired NYPD Captain Sean Crowley. She has said that he worked in the cold case department. The About Me section of his new website doesn't list this. It also doesn't mention Jackie. I e-mailed him and he agreed to answer some questions about her. I sent a bunch of questions, haven't heard anything back yet.
She states that she's constantly being used as a consultant for movies about Voodoo. She has no IMDB page.
She touts the book that she wrote, The House That Kay Built, as a #1 best seller. The book is 88 pages long and is self-published through iUniverse. She doesn't mention where the book was declared a best seller or what category of literature it reached the top spot in.
She says that her mother was a spiritualist and John Lennon, Andy Warhol, Jim Morrison and Johnny Cash would all come over to chill at her house.
She says that she worked on America's Most Wanted. Can't find any info to substantiate it.
Says that her 2008 Superbowl predictions were featured in the New York Post and she was eventually found to be completely right. Can't find any info to substantiate it.
Says that she has been recognized by Yale, NYU and Standford (I think she means Stanford) in their "law crime anylist department." None of the universities have departments with this name and none mention her on their websites. I e-mailed representatives of each school. No response so far, but I have a good guess what they're going to say. She also states that was interviewed by Yale students in order for them to obtain their masters degrees. Can't find any info to substantiate it.
She claims to be the #1 crime solver in the US. Can't find any info to substantiate it."
