1 murder or suicide 1 arrest October 30, 2012 Attorneys: Exorcism drove confession in IHOP death or apparent suicide  Saturday, October 25 AP - Bill DraperAttorneys say exorcism prompted man to falsely confess to killing prayer group leader's wife.  A suburban Kansas City man who confessed to killing the wife of his prayer group leader had just undergone an exorcism to expel demons when he gave his account to police, his attorneys said in a motion to exclude those statements from his trial next month. Micah Moore, 25, formerly of Grandview, wasn't in his right mind in November 2012 when he confessed to killing Bethany Deaton, his attorneys said, and he recanted it after getting some sleep.Deaton's body was found inside her locked minivan at Longview Lake MO on Oct. 30, 2012, with her death staged to look like suicide with a loosely tied bag over her head and a suicide note and empty 100-count bottle of acetaminophen nearby. It had been ruled suicide until the confession. tags: clergy victim, recanted confession, exorcism, Missouri
