Demonic Possession? Cops Say It Was Like ‘Third Person’ Present as They Questioned Woman Who Stabbed Toddler in Chest After Musing Over Human Sacrifices

Was it a case of demonic possession?

That’s what has many people wondering after a young woman was arrested following what police say was a case of attempted human sacrifice in New Jersey.

According to multiple reports, 20-year-old Marlene Rodriguez of Brick Township, New Jersey, brought up human sacrifice with her cousin just hours before she allegedly stabbed her brother multiple times.

She’s now charged with attempted murder, unlawful possession of a weapon, possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose, and endangering the welfare of a child, according to Patch.com.

The New York Post reported that not only did Rodriguez tell police that voices instructed her to do it, but that she started talking as if a third person was telling her not to tell police what happened.

The attack happened on Nov. 1. According to documents filed by the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office, Brick Township police were called to a home at just before 2:30 p.m. that day to find a 2-year-old boy who had been stabbed in the chest.

He was conscious and alert at the time of the arrival and was taken to Jersey Shore University Medical Center.

He was in stable condition as of Nov. 8, with both a punctured lung and a cut wall to his heart.

“At the scene, police learned Rodriguez had stabbed the boy, and after reading her rights to her, she told police she had stabbed her brother,” Patch reported.

“During interviews at police headquarters, detectives spoke with Rodriguez’s cousin, who told them about the conversation earlier in the day. The cousin said Rodriguez asked her if she had ever sacrificed anyone, and if so, who. The cousin said she replied by asking Rodriguez if she had sacrificed anyone, and Rodriguez did not answer.”

Then, not long afterwards, Rodriguez’s sister heard the 2-year-old crying and saw the injuries, with a knife on the floor next to him.

Record number of children in England are abused because parents think they are witches or possessed by black magic

The number of children in England suspected of being abused because of witchcraft, sorcery and black magic beliefs has surged to its highest level on record, the Daily Mail can reveal.

Official figures show 2,180 children were identified as potential victims of abuse linked to faith or belief last year- a rise from 2,140 in 2023 and 1,960 in 2022.

The disturbing figure represents a 49 per cent increase on 2017, when 1,460 suspected victims were identified by social services.

Experts believe the true figure could be even higher due to under-reporting and a fear that officials are too afraid of intervening for fear of offending religious beliefs.

Megan Manson, of the National Secular Society, said: ‘It is alarming that thousands of children in England are suffering abuse relating to religion or belief – and that these numbers are increasing.

‘We know that fear of criticising religious or cultural beliefs can impede tackling these serious forms of abuse.

‘Authorities must ensure that the safety and wellbeing of children are always prioritised above any reluctance to criticise religion or culture.’

Abuse cases linked to faith or belief have seen children accused of harbouring demons subjected to exorcisms and ritualistic ‘cleasings’ to ‘deliver’ evil.

Others have been harmed because relatives believe their actions have brought bad luck – such as dialling a wrong number and supposedly allowing malevolent spirits to enter the home.

Among the most notorious cases was eight-year-old Victoria Climbié, tortured to death in 2000 by relatives who believed she was possessed.

She had been sent to England by her parents who hoped she would gain a better education than in her native Ivory Coast.

Instead she was starved, tortured, beaten with bike chains and kept prisoner in a freezing bathroom by her great-aunt Marie Therese Kouao and her partner Carl Manning.

When she finally died of hypothermia and multiple organ failure in a squalid flat in Haringey, east London, she was discovered with 128 separate injuries on her body.

Kouao and Manning claimed they believed Victoria, who died weighing just 3st 10lb, was possessed by evil spirits, before being jailed for life in 2001.

In 2002, former bus driver Manning apologised to Victoria’s parents for his part in her ‘sickening’ death. He last month lost a bid to be released on parole.

A decade later, 15-year-old Kristy Bamu was beaten and drowned on Christmas Day 2010 by his sister and her boyfriend in east London after being accused of being a witch.

Over four days, Kristy was subjected to torture with knives, sticks, metal bars, a hammer and pliers.

He was forced to pray for ‘deliverance’ and denied food and water. His siblings were also beaten alongside him but escaped further attacks after ‘confessing’ to being witches.

Witch Who Participated in ‘Jezebel’ Hex of Charlie Kirk Before He Was Murdered, Now Expresses Regret

As the Gateway Pundit reported on September 10th, shortly before Charlie Kirk was assassinated, the left wing outlet ‘Jezebel’ hired a group of witches to put a hex on Kirk and then published a story about it.

Last week, Megyn Kelly revealed some new details about the story. Charlie and Erika Kirk had heard about the story, and Erika was particularly ‘rattled’ by it. They invited a friend over, a priest, to pray with them and to pray over Charlie for God’s protection.

You know the rest of the story.

Now, it appears that one of the witches involved in the hexing is experiencing regret. That’s just too bad for her. You cannot unring that bell.

From The Blast, via Yahoo News:

The Witch Who Claims To Have Cursed Charlie Kirk Speaks Out With Regret

The shadowy world of witchcraft chillingly collided with American politics this month, after a spellcaster publicly admitted regret for her part in a curse said to target conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

Speaking after Kirk’s shocking assassination at Utah Valley University, the self-proclaimed witch known as Priestess Lilin said she never intended to cause harm and wants to reach out to Charlie’s widow, Erika Kirk.

Priestess Lilin, who described herself as one of the witches contacted by Jezebel before Charlie Kirk’s death, said she did not want the situation to spiral into tragedy.

She acknowledged the emotional toll the episode has had on Erika Kirk, offering to correspond privately to give her answers.

“We regret any distress experienced. What we do is done based on an impartial perspective and at a professional level,” Lilin said in a chat with the Daily Mail. “We respect the widow’s feelings and welcome a private conversation to address her concerns.”

It’s too late for all of this. The woman in this story should have thought of all of this before she decided to help put a hex on another human being.

Later in the article, she says something that should make the blood of every Christian run cold:

She said her main practices involve spells for “protection and healing.” At the same time, she defended more controversial rituals.

“Summoning demons and communicating with spirits were not inherently ‘evil acts,’” she argued. “The spiritual community views demons as multi-faceted Spirits and not one-dimensional big bad evils. Mediumship is also perceived as an ethically neutral practice. Is it effective? Yes.”

Summoning demons is not inherently evil? Is she for real?

Whether you are a believer or not, this entire story should repulse you. These people tried to use spiritual forces to do harm to another person. It’s a sick commentary on where we are as a society right now.

Megyn Kelly Offers Shocking Update on Witches Hired by ‘Jezebel’ to Curse Charlie Kirk Days Before His Assassination

As the Gateway Pundit reported, in the days before Charlie Kirk’s assassination, the far-left website ‘Jezebel’ hired witches to put a hex on Kirk.

Megyn Kelly has a shocking and downright creepy update on this. According to Kelly, Charlie and Erika Kirk heard about this before Charlie was killed and were genuinely ‘rattled’ by the news, especially Erika. Being Christians, they believed this was a genuine threat and had a friend come over to pray with them for Charlie’s protection.

Kelly also shares details about how the people associated with the hexing were impatient for the spell to work. However you look at this situation, it was an act of pure evil.

From Megyn Kelly’s website:

When I was out in Arizona last week I learned that, two weeks before Charlie Kirk was assassinated, the far left website Jezebel declared that it had a mission to cast bad luck or a curse on Charlie. They wanted to hurt him in some way. They declared, “If the far-right misogynist with a bad haircut wants to villainize independent women, Jezebel is more than happy to be the hag of his nightmares.”

Jezebel went onto the online marketplace Etsy – yes, Etsy – to “cast a curse” on him. This is actually a thing. Etsy, the website known for making arts and crafts on demand, will happily cast a hex on someone through its ‘witches’ if you ask them to…

The writer asked, “Is it ethical to curse a man I’ve never met? Probably not. But is it unethical to let him keep talking? Yes.”…

She told the reader she placed her first spell on Etsy to “MAKE EVERYONE HATE HIM” and wondered, “how long would it take to kick in?” The witch servicing her on Etsy contacted her and asked if she would like to “amplify the energetic support” of the spell for an extra $50. She did. And she had to provide Kirk’s date of birth for accuracy. The “witch” informed her she had performed the hex, and it was successful. Jezebel wanted to know when they would be getting results on their curse…

The witch, they reveal, promised on August 23 that “you will see the first results within two to three weeks.” That was 18 days before Charlie was killed.

Traveler found with ‘human remains’ in bag told airport staff they were for ‘rituals’

A Florida traveler caught with suspected human remains told airport staff they were for ‘rituals’, border officials said. 

The horrifying discovery was made at Tampa International Airport as the passenger was declaring 10 cigars. 

Customs and Border Protection agriculture specialists said they recovered what appeared to be human remains, including part of a skull inside a foil-wrapped duffel bag. 

They also uncovered a host of illicit items including prohibited plants, even more cigars and a foil-wrapped duffel bag.

When questioned, the traveler said the remains were ‘for rituals’ according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection Director of Field Operations Carlos C. Martel, who posted about the strange discovery last week on X.

He said the items were ‘seized and destroyed’ due to ‘serious health risks.’ 

Martel also took the opportunity to quip about the situation, saying: ‘we never know what baggage may hold, but smugglers should know we’ll always have a bone to pick.’ 

It is unclear where the traveler was going to or coming from or whether they were detained. The case has been handed over to the Department of Homeland Security for investigation.

Russia to seize assets of international ‘Satanists’

Russia on Friday added what it termed the “international Satanism movement” to a financial blacklist, enabling it to freeze the assets of alleged members even if they have no criminal record.

Moscow has put several non-existent organisations on the black list of “terrorists and extremists” in recent years, including the “international LGBT movement” and the “anti-Russian separatist movement”.

As such groups are vaguely defined under Russian law, prosecutors can accuse anyone of being a member, giving Moscow a free hand to pursue political opponents, according to critics.

Russia‘s Supreme Court declared the “international Satanism movement” extremist in July, after prosecutors accused its members of desecrating Orthodox Christian churches and spreading “hatred”.

“The movement is closely linked to manifestations of radical nationalism and neo-Nazism,” Russia’s prosecutor general said in a statement in July.

Patriarch Kirill, the influential head of the Russian Orthodox Church, voiced support for the ban in January, accusing Satanists of conducting malign “rituals” and recruiting young people.

“Think about it… Our soldiers are ready to give their lives for values that are clearly being trampled upon by Satanists,” he said at a ceremony at the Kremlin.

Rosfinmonitoring, the Russian federal agency that maintains the financial blacklist of “terrorists and extremists”, added the “international Satanism movement” to its list on Friday, its website showed.

Leftist Rag Jezebel Scrambles to Add Editor’s Note to Article Boasting About Paying Witches to Curse Charlie Kirk Days Before His Assassination

Far-left feminist website Jezebel added an editor’s note to an article where they bragged about paying Etsy witches to place curses on conservative activist Charlie Kirk, just two days before he was assassinated at a Turning Point USA event.

The original piece, published on Monday, detailed how the outlet hired online spellcasters to hex Kirk over his criticisms of modern feminism and women’s independence.

The article, bylined initially to writer Claire Guinan but later changed to simply “Jezebel,” was titled “We Paid Some Etsy Witches to Curse Charlie Kirk.” In it, the author lambasted Kirk as a “far-right misogynist with a bad haircut” who promotes “regressive rhetoric” and idealizes the 1950s for women.

To “reclaim” the label, the writer described searching Etsy for curses, purchasing options like a “Karmic Revenge” spell, a “Same Day Bad Luck Curse,” an “Insanity Hex,” and a “POWERFUL HEX SPELL” that required Kirk’s birthdate for accuracy.

It states:

For the “POWERFUL HEX SPELL,” I had to provide Kirk’s date of birth for “accuracy.” The witch performed the hex, but her response was unsettling: “I just completed your spell, and it was successful. You will see the first results within 2–3 weeks. However, I did notice disturbances… negative energy not only from you, but projected at you. Likely from toxic family members, co-workers, or new acquaintances.”

The article continues:

The next day, the Priestess sent me her proof of cast: a photograph in flames, the edges slowly curving inward, engulfing Charlie’s ridiculous scrunched-up little face. She whispered (I imagine), “Trust the unseen.” Chills.

I’d timed the purchase perfectly with the August new moon in Virgo. According to the astrology girls on TikTok, this specific new moon is the perfect time for forming new habits and aligning goals. My personal goal? Cursing Kirk. The stars were aligned.

Sunday, August 24, passed. Nothing. Monday, still nothing. Tuesday rolled around, and I began to wonder if I’d been scammed. But then I reminded myself: this is witchcraft, not Amazon. The forces operate on their own schedule.

Kirk was assassinated on Wednesday during an appearance at Utah Valley University. He was shot in the neck from approximately 200 yards away while inviting people to debate him. He was rushed to the hospital but succumbed to his injuries shortly after.

We Paid Some Etsy Witches to Curse Charlie Kirk

The internet has ruined me in a thousand ways, but one of its strangest gifts is that I can now buy a curse as easily as I can buy a phone charger. On the mystical website Etsy, you can find a spell for just about anything. Don’t want it to rain on your wedding day? There’s a spell for that. Want the man who cheated on you to develop an incurable rash? Or premature balding? The Etsy coven has you covered.

But the internet has its downsides. Exhibit A: Charlie Kirk. Maybe it’s his obsession with telling women what to do or his aggressively large head, but the far-right podcaster’s presence is more irritating than most. That’s when I remembered: there’s Etsy.

These days, witches cater to more than just personal grudges. And it’s not uncommon for them to channel their energy toward thwarting Republicans (there’s even a subreddit devoted to casting nightly hexes on Trump). Are you interested in punishing Kirk for the years of regressive rhetoric he’s shouted at America’s youth and anyone within earshot? Here at Jezebel, we’re about to find out if there’s a spell for that.

Two Men Who Murdered Teen in ‘Satanic Ritual’ Granted Parole, Were Found Guilty After ‘Sacrificing’ a Virgin

Two California men are on parole nearly 30 years after murdering a girl in a “satanic ritual.”

Royce Casey and Jacob Delashmutt, both 47, were released in August and July, while a third accomplice, 45-year-old Joseph Fiorella, has yet to be released, according to The Tribune in San Luis Obispo, California.

In 1995, when all three men were teenagers, they murdered 15-year-old Elyse Pahler in what they described as a “satanic ritual.”

The boys were in a heavy metal band and believed that “sacrificing a virgin to the devil” would make them better musicians, according to People, citing a habeas corpus petition filed by Casey.

The three lured Pahler, a friend who believed the group was going to a party, into a secluded grove.

Delashmutt, then 16, took off his belt and began strangling Pahler.

Then Casey, 17, pinned her down while 15-year-old Fiorella pulled out a large hunting knife, stabbing Pahler repeatedly in the neck.

Fiorella then handed the knife to Delashmutt, who stabbed her another four or five times in the neck, before Casey stabbed her an additional four times.

Pahler begged for her mother and Jesus.

Then, Casey dealt the final blow, stomping Pahler on the back of her neck, according to the Los Angeles Times.

They covered her body with leaves and went home, according to People.

Eight months later, Casey confessed the crime to a clergyman.
