- Demon_Murder_Trial abstract "The Demon Murder Trial is the first known court case in the United States in which the defense sought to prove innocence because the defendant, Arne Cheyenne Johnson, claimed to be a victim of demonic possession, taking no personal responsibility for the crime. On November 24, 1981, in Brookfield, Connecticut, Johnson was convicted of first-degree manslaughter in the killing of his landlord, Alan Bono. The Glatzel family home (where Johnson also resided) was plagued by a number of strange and statedly unexplainable events throughout the year, ending in Bono's murder. According to testimony provided by the Glatzel family, Debbie's brother, then 11-year-old David Glatzel, had allegedly played host to the demon that forced Johnson to kill Bono. After witnessing a number of increasingly ominous occurrences involving David, the family, exhausted and terrified, decided to elicit the aid of self-described demonologists Ed and Lorraine Warren (noted for their investigation into the famed Amityville Haunting) in a last-ditch effort to "cure" David. The Glatzel family, along with the Warrens, then proceeded to have David exorcised by a number of Catholic priests. The process dragged on for several excruciating days, and only concluded when a demon fled the child's body, supposedly taking up residence within Johnson instead. Several months later, Johnson killed his landlord during a heated conversation. His defense lawyer argued in court that he was possessed, but the judge ruled that such a defense could never be proven and was therefore infeasible in a court of law. Johnson was subsequently convicted, though he only served five years of a ten to twenty year sentence. The trial attracted media attention from around the world, and has obtained a level of notoriety due to numerous depictions of the events that preceded it in literature and television.".
