psychic_300pxDENVER (CBS4) – One Denver psychic has been convicted of theft, a second was arrested this month in California and Denver prosecutors are still seeking to arrest a third psychic accused of convincing clients she was a “witch doctor.”

Ralph Stevenson, an investigator with the Denver District Attorney’s Economic Crimes Unit, said victims have described the psychics as being akin to “witch doctors,” making grapefruits bleed, tomatoes taste like salt and cracking eggs open and producing gooey black yolks.

“In these cases, where after they’ve paid money for services rendered, they take additional money, I believe through theft and deception, through magic and things like that and then don’t give money back to the victims … that’s when we get involved,” said Stevenson.

Denver psychic Cathy Ann Russo is currently on probation after being pleading guilty last August to felony theft and misdemeanor theft. Over the course of five years, beginning in 2007, Russo conned a Hispanic man out of $35,250. according to court records.

She told him his money had “evil spirits” and that she needed to pray on his money to rid the cash of its evil spirits. She promised the man she would return the money to him as soon as his cash was cleansed. At one point, she told the man she had buried his money in a graveyard.

Okay, i’m not a conspiracist. People who know me will atest to my skepticism, but i’d like some opinions on what has come to my attention.

First, go to this Facebook link. When you’re there you’ll see you are on the official Obama facebook page, verified by the link “Barack Obama’s Page” directly above the image. So, the photo you’re looking at has been posted by team Obama, right? Right.

Now look at the photo carefully. Do you see anything puzzling? Here is what has been brought to my attention: Barry’s mother’s right arm – follow it down to her right hand. What do you see? Let me show you what I see:

One conspiracy site says, «A professional graphic artist who examined the 1973 photo believes the image of Obama’s mother, Ann Dunham, was airbrushed into the scene to cover up an African-American man who was standing next to Obama at the Honolulu airport.»

My question is, whose hand is seen inside Obama’s right elbow? Had i found this image on some wacky conspiracist site i wouldn’t have given it a second thought, but this is posted on Obama’s official Facebook page. Is Team Barry messing with conspiracists? Is this a trick of light? What do you think?
