Yep, these stories sure come up a lot, don’t they? Police arrest Kenner psychic accused of taking $10,000 from woman to cleanse ‘curse’ | NOLA.com. Fortuneteller April Stevens allegedly told her victim, “Money is the root of all evil.” It’s an old adage that has seemingly proved true, according to Kenner police, who say Stevens relieved the woman of $10,000 in a scam to “cleanse” the cash and remove a curse. Police say Stevens used sleight-of-hand tricks and performed ritualistic ceremonies to convince the woman that she was in mortal danger. After telling the woman that “money is the root of all evil,” Stevens allegedly convinced her to give her $10,000 so it could be placed in “the church” and cleansed, the arrest report said. The woman’s money was supposed to be returned to her after it had been purified, McGregor said. But after several months, Stevens still hadn’t returned the money. Another one of these stories? They seem to come up every week. But it’s our business to tell you about them. Beware of all psychics. See related stories for more.
