Michael and Christine Taylor were happily married when they joined the charismatic church called the Christian Fellowship Group in 1974. Michael became deeply involved in the group, but soon things took a sinister turn. Church leaders believed that Michael was a victim of demonic possession and performed an all-night exorcism. They sent him home and the unthinkable happened. Confusing his own wife for a demon, he attacked her, killing her violently with his bare hands.
