Judge Denies Lower Bond in Brookfield Murder Case
A Superior Court judge in Danbury, Connecticut, refused Friday to lower the $125,000 bond for Anne Cheyenne Johnson, 19, charged with the stabbing death of neighbor Alan Bono, 41, on February 16. Johnson's defense contends possession by a demon absolves responsibility, and a pathologist exam was sought but the victim's body had been cremated. Psychic researchers and Lorraine Warren say Bono's death occurred during Johnson's earth encounter with a demon.
