Witches of Eastwick

So here is an interesting article about a woman that was convicted in 1944 (not 1844) for witchcraft in Scotland. During the war she held a seance in which it was revealed that a warship had sunk. The government was holding back this information as a matter of national security. Since she didn't break any laws, the government used an old law to get her put away. So she was tried and convicted of witchcraft. Now the case is being presented to Queen Elizabeth to hopefully review and pardon. Read the article by Scott Horton of Harpers magazine here.
