A 'psychic medium' named Mervyn Johnson, who was a president of the International Spiritualist Federation, has been jailed for five years after being found guilty of raping and/or sexually assaulting women, and girls as young as 12, during 'healing sessions' in Sweden.
Now i debated on whether or not to actually put this up on here, and thought i would leave it upto Jon if he so wished to remove it
There is more on the case if you goole, but obviously i dont want to link it back to here

Yet another person who has abused the trust put in him. How can a person who claims to be a spiritual person do these things.

What i also find disgusting is 5 years.  Should have been longer as there is a abuse of trust aspect in addition to the physical assault. That is if he used his position. I am assuming so. |

The fact that he used his mediumship as part of the process is what sickens me
Anyone can be a rapist etc, but to use your postition of authority, or you bulls*it claims as part of it truly sickens me.

I dont care whether they are a doctor , medium or what ever proffession they are in..they have abused a trust and should be locked up for life, because they have ruined someones life and no one has the right to do that !!!

I think that says a lot about our justice system. Screw the government out of tax etc and you get screwed. Rape some woman or child, and you basically get a slap on the wrist. |

I would love to know if a abuse of trust was involved? I assume there was but the story is not quite clear.  |
