The night of the meeting he con

“One Friday night he called us
up and announced, ‘I’m not Christ
ian, I’m Wiccan,’” Crane said. She
and her husband had no idea what
Wicca was at that time.
“My son asked me, ‘Will you
please check it out and find out
what Wicca is about before you
condemn it?’” she said.
Crane and her husband said she
checked with her pastor but also
went to a bookstore and researched
the religion.

hell they were doing,” Crane said.
Crane said the state refused to
talk to her, so she took the story to
the media. Verch agreed to look
into the issue and ran the story at
the end of August.
Verch interviewed two men that
had been involved in Wicca for her
story. One had been in Wicca for 20
years, the other had been convict
ed of ritualistic murder. KEZI dis
played the convict’s words with a
font that resembled horror-film let
tering and placed an illustration of
a blood-red upside-down penta
gram behind a picture of his face.
“ He is an admitted former Sa
tanist,” Verch said. “An upside
down pentagram is an appropriate
background for him. ”
Some Wiccans also use the sym
bol of the pentagram, but it is only
turned upside down by people that
practice Satanism. “We didn’t use
a pentagram for Norma Joyce,”
Verch pointed out.
Joyce said the broadcast de
picted Wiccans as irresponsible
people who blamed crimes on
their religion.
“(The men in the broadcast) took
no responsibility for their actions,”
Joyce said. “Wiccans believe in re
sponsibility and free will.”
The broadcast also showed
footage of the Dari-Mart murders
that occurred several years ago, im
plying that Wiccans were involved
in such activities.
“It’s a Hollywood idea that spells
are things like human sacrifice.”
Joyce said. “We don’t do sacrifice
— we don’t even do communion.”
