GREENWICH, Conn. - A Connecticut psychic who said she was assaulted in an attack she believed was arranged by rival psychics has been charged with lying about the incident. Greenwich police arrested 35-year-old Janet Lee of Norwalk on Saturday on charges including falsely reporting an incident.

Lee, who promotes herself the "foremost psychic in New England," called police on July 11 to report that a man had beaten her outside her Greenwich office. She said she believed rival psychics in town who had left her threatening phone messages were responsible, but she did not know their names.

Greenwich police said there were inconsistencies in Lee's story, and they believe she may have been assaulted in Norwalk by someone she knew.

Lee's attorney said his client stands by her story.

Who knew psychic-try was such a cutthroat business? Or is it... she was lying, so maybe it's not. Anyway, how could she not know the names of the rival psychics who left her threatening phone messages? I mean, even if they didn't leave her phone messages, wouldn't she know their names? Then again, the police think she may have been assaulted by "someone she knew"... well, so what! She's a psychic! She should know who it was even if she didn't know who it was!

How would rival psychics leave threatening phone messages, anyway? "Hello. You don't know who this is... well, maybe you do know who this is, but we're going to get you. Be scared, because you'll never know when or where... okay, maybe you will know when and where, but will you know how? Ah ha! Oh crap, yeah, you'll probably know how, too... Hey, there's not enough room in this town for all of us. There's no future here for you. Got it? There's only so much future to go around. We want you out. And we already know you won't leave, so be prepared for a beating. Which, of course, you'll expect. Yeah, yeah, we already know what's going to happen after that, too... Oh, to hell with it. There's somebody at the door; gotta go see who it is. No I don't, I already know who it is. You know what? Forget it."
