Psychic Charged With Lying About Attack By Rivals

GREENWICH, Conn. — A Connecticut psychic who said she was assaulted in an attack she believed was arranged by rival psychics has been charged with lying about the incident. Greenwich police arrested 35-year-old Janet Lee of Norwalk on Saturday on charges including falsely reporting an incident.

Lee, who promotes herself the "foremost psychic in New England," called police on July 11 to report that a man had beaten her outside her Greenwich office. She said she believed rival psychics in town who had left her threatening phone messages were responsible, but she did not know their names.

Greenwich police said there were inconsistencies in Lee's story, and they believe she may have been assaulted in Norwalk by someone she knew.

Lee's attorney said his client stands by her story.

I'd like to know why all these psychics need to leave phone messages.

[HeevenSteven]

She should have known this would happen.

uhhhhhhhh,

IF she was attacked

how come she didn't see it coming?

just sayin'

how come she doesn't know the names of the callers?

must be they don't have very good "psychics" in New England.

Sadly none of these charlatans are arrested for the far worse crime of separating the credulous and desperate from their hard-earned cash. There is no evidence that actual psychics exist, so they're either liars or delusional and I'm not sure which is worse.

Interesting phrasing, that!

No evidence exists, therefore they're delusional or liars, eh?

Not that these folks AREN'T liars or suffering from delusions, but absence of proof is NOT proof of absence

We ALL - even the most fervent of Atheists - believe in some things for which there exists no objective proof

Prove objectively that love, hate good, evil, courage, cowardice, etc. exist

Until you can, don't be quite so quick to state as fact that those whose belief systems vary from yours are liars
