"Psychic" healer gets 5-year sentence.

Nancy Marks, who was accused of stealing nearly $300,000 from clients, has been ordered to serve five years in prison and will be ordered to pay restitution when an appropriate amount is determined. Victims told police Marks had told them she needed their cash to draw out the bad energy and their credit card numbers to see how frequently the number 6 appeared. Marks was accused of then keeping the cash and of using the credit cards. In December 2010, a jury in Boulder found her guilty on 14 counts of fraud and 2 of tax evasion.
