Russian man jailed for assaulting fortune teller who predicted he would go to jail

A Russian court has sentenced a man to more than two dozen years in prison for assaulting a Gypsy fortune teller who predicted that he would be jailed, local media reported.

Gennady Osipovich was told by the female fortune teller that she saw a "state-owned house" in his future, which is a Russian euphemism for jail, The Moscow Times reported, citing the country's Investigative Committee.

The woman managed to escape the man, but Osipovich stabbed two unidentified witnesses to death during the assault, which happened in October.

Osipovich was sentenced to 22 years in a maximum-security prison.

On October 8 of last year Gennady Osipovich met a Gypsy fortune teller who told him that he was headed for “kazyonny dom”, which translates to “state-sponsored house” AKA prison. Confronted with his crushing future, Osipovich decided to do whatever he could to make sure that it didn’t come true and... pulled out a knife and tried to stab her.

The fortune teller got away, but two witnesses were not so lucky. Ospovich stabbed each of them repeatedly and they succumbed to their wounds. [Nothing to do with Arbroath]

Yet she didn't predict that she should get out of dodge before the beatdown?
