SOLO NZ Press Release: In NZ it’s the Witches Who Do the Drowning

13 June, 2009

“It comes as an enormous relief that after 17 hours deliberation the jury has finally returned five guilty verdicts for the fatal Maori exorcism of Janet Moses. I was beginning to wonder if witchdoctory was a legitimate defense in New Zealand,” worries SOLO-NZ Coordinator Glenn Jameson.

This just in from The NZ Herald's entertainment section: France is trying to evict the pseudo-religion on the grounds of fraud. While the whole movement is almost certainly a hoax I can't see they've done anything wrong. Anyone stupid enough to put their psychology in the hands of Tom Cruise and his band of High-on-Lifers should have their heads read by a professional shrink.
