Musician Edna Chizema went on trial in March in Harare, Zimbabwe, for allegedly defrauding Ms. Magrate Mapfumo by convincing her to pay the equivalent of US $5,000 for Chizema to fly in four invisible mermaids (folkloric goddesses of revenge, according to the Shona people) from London to help recover Mapfumo's stolen car.

I like the one about the lady trying to get her dealer arrested for not giving her twenty bucks back. And then the dealer telling the police she didn't take the money bc she was out whoring. *headshake*

I think the fact that her car wasn't recovered is proof the mermaids do not exist -- or were not being controlled and/or channeled by Edna.

Most likely.

Damn invisible mermaids.

They went to a strip club instead of retrieving the car.

The judge should make her pay back half of the $. The rest she keeps as a fine on the idiots part for being so stupid.
