I'm tempted to make the drive so I can ask awkward questions and be thrown out.

      This particular grifter claims to have kidnapped a child for satanic abuse, and yet, the only legal actions that I can find against her is a restraining order for harassment filed by another ministry.

        Oh wow. Just based on the poster, I expected that she was kidnapped and saved the day by teaching her satanic kidnapper the word of Christ.

        And it’s usually the other way around, typically people file retaining orders AGAINST the church. She has got to be WAAAY out there!

          I also found this, https://maroelamedia.co.za/nuus/sa-nuus/daar-is-vergifnis-in-christus-se-voormalige-satanis/ which seems to claim that she was ordered to kill a grifter prophet, and then chose to kill his son, and then didn’t do either of those things.

          here she is under a different name, and without her facial tattoos.

    Some that initially come to mind: how much time did you serve? If you didn’t serve time for your crime, why? Who are the parents of this child, and have they made any public statements confirming the details of your story? When you say Satanist, do you mean theistic Satanism, LaVeyan, or are you using satanist as a derogatory term for indigenous beliefs and practices?

      Also, why did Soldiers 4 Christ need a restraining order against you?

    So many phony ex-satanists run this grift. Google “Mike Warnke.” A truly deplorable individual.

      It is. But the claimed crimes were in South Africa?

      But also, felons face serious hurdles gaining entry to the US.

        I was just making fun of the wording: “…coming to the USA… and to Patterson, Missouri”.

          I’m with ya. I think it’s like “Your call will be answered in the order it was received” - one single call cannot have an order. They mean “All calls are answered…”

          Same here, someone didn’t proof it well. lol. I love stupid shit like that.
