A South Carolina voodoo priestess, a Georgia politician and a death ritual. 

George Ann Mills, a high priestess in Blythewood, S.C., told Cobb County Police that Cobb Commissioner Annette Kesting wrote her $3,000 in bad checks.

A police report says the commissioner asked Mills to have her political rival, commissioner-elect Woody Thompson, "catch cancer" or "have a car accident."

Kesting paid Mills a $2,000 check for the ritual on Aug. 27 and postdated a $1,000 check for Sept. 11. Both checks bounced. The report said Kesting paid cash to make up for the first bounced check.

Mills did not perform the death ritual and says no true voodoo priestess would do such a thing. However, Mills says she did conduct other rituals to help Kesting's family and their financial situation. She says she is praying the 14 gods inside and outside her Blythewood home will cleanse Kesting. 

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports Annette Kesting and her attorney met with Georgia police investigators on Wednesday.
