Another twist came in the psychic fraud trial of Jaycee Wasso when the state’s star witness, Lin Halfon, admitted under cross-examination Thursday that she, not Wasso, is the one who stole $1 million from her wealthy older husband in 2019.
The winding tale of a young wife, her rich husband, and a psychic who allegedly conned them into giving her loads of cash has taken several turns, but now the psychic's lawyer says the rich man's son was an acquaintance of one of the psychic's family members.
As a self-proclaimed psychic prepares for trial, it was revealed that the victim's son knows one of the men recently arrested in the elaborate scam. The defense thinks it's shady and not a coincidence, but prosecutors disagree, saying there is nothing there.
