64: Back in Crime - Haunted History: Arne Johnson

Today we bring you the story of the one and only time someone tried to enter a plea of not guilty by reason of demonic possession in the United States. The demons first started out in an 11 year old boy, and moved on to a 19 year old who went on to stab his landlord to death. Possessed, or just a convenient excuse? You decide.
