Two local Democratic Party officials in Durham County, North Carolina were arrested recently in connection with alleged satanic rituals, which involved beatings and sexual assault.

“As first reported by ABC News affiliate WTVD, Diana Palmer, the vice chairwoman of the Durham County Democratic Party, turned herself in to the police Wednesday afternoon on charges that she was an accessory after the fact to assault with a deadly weapon, police said.”

Palmer is the third person facing charges in a case that has stunned local party officials.

Joseph Craig, 25, had been under arrest since last week on second-degree kidnapping charges for allegedly forcing a man into a dog cage and beating him with a wooden cane and cable cord, as revealed by court documents. He also allegedly raped a woman, while his wife, Joy Johnson, watched.

The victims told investigators that they were participating in a satanic ritual. Mrs. Johnson, a former chairwoman of the Durham County Democratic Party, has been charged with aiding and abetting assault and rape with a deadly weapon.

Palmer had been accused of taking objects from the house where the alleged crimes took place, according to a Durham police spokeswoman. Her attorney, Bill Thomas, claimed his client is innocent and that Palmer never performed in any satanic rituals.
