The scene was a courtroom in North Carolina yesterday afternoon as the accusers of a top
official in the Durham County Democratic Party had their day in court to formalize their accusations.
A Durham District Court heard the testimony of two persons who have alleged that Durham County Democratic Party 3rd Vice-Chair Joy Suzanne Johnson and her husband ran a Satanic sex cult which forced victims into bizarre. slavery-like conditions, in addition to severe physical and emotional abuse.
One of the accusers, James Frederick Bethard, denied that the couple was simply involved in Wiccan or 'paganism.' Bethard stated, 'It was a Satanic group. We talked at length about Satanism, demons.'
After hearing the testimony the District Judge ruled that the case had probable cause to proceed to trial.

Durham Torture Chamber: House of Horrors
From the outside the house appears to be just like any other house you would find in a typical neighborhood in the U.S. But inside that house was a virtual torture chamber, a house of horrors.
Dog cages where human beings were placed for days and given no food or water.
Chains with which human beings were tied to beds for days at a time without any access to human sustenance.
Cable wires that were used to beat and whip human beings.
And canes that were used to sexually assault and rape unsuspecting victims.
All of these things, according to police reports, were done while the perpetrators screamed verbal abuses at the victims even while they were being abused physically and sexually.
These details are gradually coming to the surface concerning the Durham Democratic Party-Satanic sex scandal. It is still not clear that the alleged perpetrators, Joy Johnson (a top official in the Durham Democratic Party) and her husband Joseph Scott Craig, Jr. are members of a Satanic cult.
Although the warrants indicate that the ritualistic sexual abuse resulted from the couple's involvement in devil-worship, other sources indicate that the couple belong to the Wiccan religion, which in no way involves the worship of Satan.
Wiccans are normally harmless persons who practice a religion related to the ancient beliefs of pagans whose spirituality arose from highlighting their connection to the earth. Wiccans do not believe in Satan, however, and thus, it would be difficult to imagine a person of the Wiccan religion being involved in Satan-worship.
These details have not yet been clarified by the local Durham law enforcement officials.
But we do know that if the allegations of the accusers are true, then what took place at the home of Joy Johnson and Joseph Scott Craig is like a living nightmare one normally finds only in the movies.
One other person has been charged in the case--Diana Palmer, first Vice-Chair of the Durham Democratic Party. Police have not disclosed as to whether or not other arrests can be expected.

New Arrest in Bizarre NC Satanic Sex Case
A 3rd person has been arrested in the bizarre Durham, North Carolina Satanic sex case. The 3rd suspect is also a top official with the Durham County Democratic Party.
The Raleigh News and Observer is reporting that Diana Palmer, age 44, Vice-Chair of the Durham County Democratic Party, has been charged with 'one count of accessory after the fact of assault with a deadly weapon inflicting serious injury.'
Palmer, speaking through her attorney, denies any involvement with a Satanic cult and denies any knowledge of any crime committed by the persons previously charged.
Joy Johnson, Vice Chair of Young Democrats and 3rd Vice Chair of the Durham Democratic Party, along with her husband Joseph Scott Craig, were charged in the case after a complaint was lodged by one of the persons allegedly kidnapped and caged by the couple.
Craig faces charges of kidnapping, sexual assault, assault with a deadly weapon, and rape.
Johnson was initially charged with aiding and abetting. But on Tuesday new details emerged as to the specific manner in which Johnson was allegedly involved in the crimes.
The arrest warrant alleges that Johnson 'instigated and encouraged' her husband in handcuffing a man, forcing him into a dog cage, and then leaving him there for days without food or water.
Although details are sketchy concerning the alleged cult activity, this story only adds to the scandal of a community and a county Democratic Party that are already reeling from one of the biggest corruption cases in the nation--that of disgraced District Attorney Mike Nifong.
