WESTERN CAPE – Kandis Starr doesn’t believe that Joslin Smith was sold to a sangoma as claimed by Lourentia Lombaard in court.

Lombaard testified that Joslin’s mother, Kelly, confessed that she sold her daughter for R20,000.

Starr, who is a paranormal justice medium in the United States of America, doesn’t believe this is the case after speaking to Joslin’s spirit. Starr has shared many posts over the past year on her YouTube channel of communication between her and what she believes is Joslin’s spirit.

Starr believes Joslin was murdered

During one of her latest videos, Starr used a spirit box to communicate with her spirit guides who then directed her to “Joslin”. A spirit box, also known as a ghost box, is a handheld electronic device which paranormal investigators use to communicate with spirits that have passed on. In the video, Starr can be heard trying to communicate with a voice that said it was Joslin.

While patchy at times, words like “I suffered,” “killed” and “they dumped me” could be heard.

Starr also got emotional during the recording as the voice said “Joslin. I am here.”

When Starr asked whether Joslin was sold to a sangoma as claimed by Lombaard, the voice seemingly stated that “they’re lying.”

Starr also asked the spirit whether her mum’s boyfriend was abusing her before she was killed. When she got her answers, Starr said it left her feeling nauseous.
