According to court documents, the victim went to Mitchell in March after finding her online working under the name “Psychic Novena Saint.” The woman spent hundreds on a crystal ball reading, spiritual kit and cleansing candles, but Mitchell allegedly told the woman she needed to spend $3,800 to rid all her household possessions of evil spirits.
