A fortune-teller from Maryland failed to turn over her own fate cards. Grace Uwanawich, known as "Mrs. Grace," was sentenced to 18 months in prison Monday after she pleaded guilty to one count of felony theft and two counts of fortunetelling, a misdemeanor in Montgomery County.
According to prosecutors, Uwanawich defrauded her clients out of thousands of dollars after convincing them that she could crush the curse on their families.
One of her clients was a 57-year-old woman who gave Uwanawich more than $160,000 in cash and property for crushing a curse on her family that Uwanawich said dated back to the building of the Great Wall of China.
Under the plea deal, Uwanawich would be required to payback nearly $257,000 in restitution to her four former clients, according to the Washington Post reports.
"I promise in Jesus' name I'm not going to do this again," Uwanawich, who has been arrested two times in connection with similar scams in Pennsylvania, said before being sentenced to 18 months in jail. "I know it sounds like I'm using Jesus. I am ashamed."
