The family's desperate search for Brandon extended out to whoever might offer help, including psychics.

The CBC said a crew was about to head to an abandoned house near Line 5. Instead of searching, the crew ended up covering the police recovery efforts.

A psychic's tip prompted the Crisp family to plan a search for young Brandon with a camera crew yesterday. But that search was cancelled when hunters discovered what is believed to be the body of the 15-year-old in the vicinity suggested by the psychic.

The CBC's The Fifth Estate confirmed that a crew was in the area yesterday to accompany members of the Crisp family to an area near Ridge Road in Oro-Medonte Township.

The psychic, who had helped in earlier searches, was hesitant to speak about her vision without speaking to the family first.

And she wouldn't discuss the specific information. But she explained that she's a clairvoyant and receives information through images.

"I get pictures and images in my mind," she said. "It's just a sense or feeling that you get and you just hone it."

The mood at St. Joseph’s High School today fluctuated from “quiet reflection to quite emotional,” said principal Matt McCann.

The Canadian flag flew at half-staff today outside St. Joe’s to honour Brandon Crisp, the Grade 10 student whose body police believe they have found south of Orillia.

If I am reading this correctly, the psychic was sending the CBC crew to a different location than where the body was found. Exactly how did the psychic's tip help locate the body?

She still bought them to the vicinity... just happened to be found by the hunters right before.

I never heard any of this before and I have read every article related to this case. Is this even true? Where is the proof that CBC was actually there?

correction to my previous post.... yes there is some truth to this story but it is just coincidence that he was discovered that day in that area. Thousands of people were searching that area because he was last seen there. Does that mean everyone that was out in Oro a psychic? If the psychic had actually been correct about him being in an abandoned building then I would agree, but as I said this is just coincidence.

When a Barrie woman disappeared last year psychics tried to drag search crews all over the area. None which were close to the location which she was discovered. I wish these people would stop wasting families time and hopes with there useless premonitions.

If you have a feeling, then fine, go look yourself. When you find the person, I will be impressed.

I wish people would keep their uneducated and narrow minded opinions to themselves, psychics do not always have a "clear" picture or vision and often have to have help to put the pieces together, the visions come somewhat like a puzzle and when you work closly with them you often have overwhelming positive results!! Unless you have walked 1 inch in the shoes of a psychic or a mother who has lost their child you have no right to an opinon here. As a mother of a psychic child and who lost my 18 year old son, I am thankfull every single day for what the gift that these kind, generous people share with me. Not only discovering new things about my son everyday but the constant connection I keep with my son now in heaven. I feel sorry for all you non believers because one day when your loved ones are gone,,,, you will not have what I have today.... everlasting peace and connection. Educate yourselves before you speak.
