Texas Execution Raises Questions About Exorcisms | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

A Texas man was executed for killing his girlfriend’s 13-month-old daughter during an alleged exorcism. Thirty-five-year-old Blaine Milam was convicted of the 2008 death in East Texas. In his final statement, Milam thanked the prison chaplaincy for opening its faith-based programs to death row inmates. The news underscores the dangers of attempting to perform an exorcism without proper guidance. Monsignor Stephen Rossetti, head of the Saint Michael Center for Spiritual Renewal and chief exorcist for the Archdiocese of Washington, joins to share what he knows about the case. He also explains what safe steps someone should take if they suspect a loved one may be possessed by a demon. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
