6. Found guilty (though by a majority verdict)

A jury found him guilty of all 12 charges, dismissing claims that he was an innocent spiritualist instructor. All 12 counts were majority verdicts.

So one or two jurors believed him, when he claimed:

Lang’s police interview was read out, in which he told officers that one of his alleged victims took her clothes off in one of his sessions, which left him “totally shocked” adding “I wouldn’t request that of a partner”.

But, he added, the key to spiritualism is “letting yourself go. If they decide to take their clothes off, it’s their problem”.

Notice that he also played the "I'm a Christian" card.
