   A self-proclaimed "psychic" in southeast Wales has been found guilty of   
   tricking two bereaved young women who sought his spiritualist skills into   
   sex acts.   
      
   Newport Crown Court found 49-year-old Karl Lang guilty on 12 counts of   
   causing women to engage in sexual activity without consent, Wales Online   
   reported Friday.   
      
   His two victims, aged in their twenties, had approached Lang to try to   
   "make contact" with their dead relatives.   
      
   Lang betrayed the trust of the vulnerable girls, the court said, and   
   brainwashed them into lewd sex acts, which he said would boost their   
   spiritual powers.   
      
   The women said they were asked to perform outrageous and raunchy sex acts   
   while Lang sat watching fully clothed, although he would occasionally   
   strip and join in. One victim said she was encouraged to act like a porn   
   star in the belief it would help her contact the spirit world.   
      
   The manipulative behavior lasted almost four years from November 2005   
   until September 2009.   
      
   Lang had called the claims "wicked lies" and vehemently denied his guilt.   
   In a police interview he said "letting go" was imperative to achieving   
   spiritualism and if the girls wished to strip "it was their problem."   
      
   "This involved a very serious breach of trust and an immediate custodial   
   sentence is, it seems to me, absolutely inevitable," Judge Patrick Curran   
   said.   
      
   Curran added that the women were "vulnerable in the sense that they were   
   bereaved and sought the defendant's consultation in communicating with   
   those who died, and he took the most gross advantage of the situation."   
      
   Lang told the jury he has seen, heard and communicated with spirits since   
   the age of four.   
      
   He will be sentenced in July.
