Murdered Asian porn queen and preacher boyfriend profiled by CBS’ 48 hours

CBS’ 48 Hours put together a complete profile of Felicia Tang and Brian Randone on its crime blog. Much of it cites reporting done by Thomas Himes over the past few days. 

There are some interesting photos taken from Randone’s MySpace and Facebook accounts though. Here’s the money shots:

Randone apparently also believed in apocalyptic bible prophecies: “I really believe with all my heart that Jesus is coming again soon. I’ve studied a lot of prophecy and many are being fulfilled literally right before our eyes. He is coming.” 
Felicia Lee first published FeliciaTang.com in 2002, displaying nudes and movie stills. Also, Lee sometimes blogged in the “news” section of the site. “Felicia Tang” blog posts stood out in ironic contrast to the Christian-themed writing by the man accused of her murder: 
March, 2004: “I was going back and forth to casting calls with Playboy. They were casting for girls for their DVD with Red Man and Method Man’s Mansion Party. I got my part so we shot this in the Playboy Mansion…I brought some pictures for you guys to view. It was great during the day I was in the pool scene with three other models. The typical …girls laying out by pool and then decide to get naked and bounce and play in the water…giggling away. […] By the end I was delirious….these shoots really take a long time..with lots of waiting around.”

  1. First, it’s probably a good bet that Frank does not watch porn. If so, he’d know there is a signficant difference between Playboy videos and say, Evil Angel video. The former is nude modeling, the latter is true porn.

    But that distinction aside, I find it fascinating that the posters on the earlier article about Felicia seem to think that makes her memory more “degrading” or less less of a human. Real porn actresses live real lives, and are no less remarkable when they die of terrible causes. I feel Frank in no way is dishonoring her memory – if anything, he has elevated her video performances to a level that she does not deserve, but to the casual reader, it won’t matter. She was a very beautiful woman who found a way to make many people happy with her gifts, and it’s a sad situation that her boyfriend took her life.

  2. First of all, the girl in the picture isn’t even Felicia and second, how does nude modeling/videos become porn? Oh, let me guess…the headline wouldn’t be nearly as interesting if it read, “Psychotic freak murders beautiful girl.” That’s what it should say. Please get your facts straight.

  3. I am a friend of the couple and I personally took that picture 3 years ago on New Years Eve, before he ever met Felicia. While that is indeed Brian saying Happy New Year to the camera the girl at his side is not Felicia and is alive and well.

    Thanks for the correction
