A woman whose GP made her believe she was possessed by demons has won a damages claim

She developed a crippling fear of owls after religious grooming by her doctor.

It was reported on Friday 30th November that a woman who developed a crippling fear of owls after religious grooming by her doctor has won a damages claim.

Sally Brayshaw was taken to religious meetings and told that the devil was “having a real go” at her by GP Thomas O’Brien.

She claimed the locum doctor, a Pentecostal Christian, suggested she was possessed by demons and advised her not to see a psychiatrist.

A High Court judge ruled she was entitled to more than £12,700.

Dr. O’Brien took no part in the case and his whereabouts are unknown.
