"A man suspected of theft has blamed a ghost for the crimes. Joseph Hughes from Mount Gilead, Ohio was accused of stealing a generator, a welder and 12 air conditioning units from the sheriff&amp;#039;s office in Morrow County. The stolen items were found in the ex-police officer&amp;#039;s basement. Hughes told the court: &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s going to sound kind of ridiculous, but we believed that there was some paranormal presence in the basement. &amp;quot;It sounds kind of ridiculous, but there was evidence to support it.&amp;quot; The prosecutor responded: &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;ve been practising since 1983, and I can say that&amp;#039;s the first time I&amp;#039;ve heard of paranormal activity in the course of a trial.&amp;quot; Hughes was found guilty of 18 charges.  &amp;gt; Woman &amp;#039;sees ghosts having sex in home&amp;#039; &amp;gt; &amp;#039;Wine ghost snob&amp;#039; lurks in British pub "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
