Lawyer accused of “channeling” man’s dead ex wife, trying to sleep with him

Lawyers don’t have the greatest reputation in some circles and it’s hard to understand why. They’re merely trying to help people, like the allegations against Arizona lawyer Charna Johnson who pretended to channel a client’s dead ex-wife and pressure him into sex.

According to Law.com, an investigation found that Johnson told her male client that she was channeling his dead wife. Johnson then lied about it during an unrelated disciplinary hearing.

Johnson represented the client in 1999 in divorce proceedings after having met him in a ballroom dance class. The next year, the client’s wife committed suicide and the client retained Johnson again to deal with the estate.

After the death, Johnson told her client that “his deceased wife Jan had ‘come’ to her and that Jan’s ‘spirit’ was ‘inside’ her and that she could communicate Jan’s thoughts.”

Like a sly fox, Johnson used this to try to have sex with the client. She later told an investigator that Johnson’s sex requests were coming from the dead wife and not from her.

Any time your scheme to sleep with a client borrows liberally from a romantic comedy starring Eva Longoria, I think you may want to go back to the drawing board. I mean come on, who hasn’t tried this one after killing a hot girl’s boyfriend? Right fellas?

Still, I have to think it’s kind of hot to have a lady lawyer so crazily after you. Most girls I date can’t even adequately fake orgasm, let alone have the wherewithal to pretend they’ve been possessed by a ghost. That’s an impressive level of creepish dedication.
