A Southern California doctor and ordained Pentecostal minister who hawked a fake cure for cancer on the Trinity Broadcast Network was sentenced to 14 years in prison and ordered to forfeit more than $1.2 million.

Dr. Christine Daniel pitched her witch’s brew of suntan lotion and beef flavoring, which she promoted as the herbal product C-Extract, on the Costa Mesa-based religious network, online and at her Sonrise wellness center in Mission Hills. She claimed a 60% to 80% success rate at curing or reversing advanced forms of cancer, as well as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, diabetes, multiple sclerosis and hepatitis.

Daniel, a 58-year-old native of Nigeria who earned a medical degree from Temple University School of Medicine, was found guilty in 2011 of wire fraud, tax evasion and witness tampering. She charged dozens of terminally-ill patients up to $150,000 for treatments but cured no one.
