Peter Edge doth schreibble : > <SNIPS> > If your question is 'what if magic worked', you might well > create different changes to criminal procedure than if your > question was 'what if the working of magic was fully recognised'. <SNIPS> And thus my question, appended to the end of my Anna Göldi post : If sorcery were to be re-instated as a going concern here in the States, would it perhaps follow that the old Witchcraft Statutes would be brought back into play, along with the re-admission of "spectral evidence" into court proceedings? And might the claim to have killed someone by magical means then carry the same weight in the eyes of the law as a smoking gun? And is anyone else shuddering at the thought of what could result?
