Angel of Death in the Courthouse
Rate this encounter:
Mona Leilani, Washington DC, Spring 1989
I was reading through your Web site and it gave me the confidence to speak
out about what I saw as a child. At age 12, I saw the Angel of Death or what
have you. I witnessed him come to a woman whom I had no knowledge of, or
have ever spoken with, take her away by giving her direct eye contact.
Here's what happened...
It was before summer in 1989. My family was poor and we were being evicted
from an apartment in Washington DC. We had to go to court to talk about it
with the judge. In the waiting room at the courthouse in DC, there was a
woman sitting beside me with a large oxygen tank and a mask over her mouth.
She was really heavy and she wore a purple flower dress. I sat beside her. I
remember I noticed her oxygen tank and wondered what was wrong with her.
Then I heard a knock on the glass, which was right behind me. The seating
arrangement was like the chairs were facing the waiting area but your back
was to a glass wall that if you looked through you could see the security
guards checking people in through an x-ray machine. I looked up when I heard
a knock. Three knocks. Bam, bam, bam. Then I looked up and so did the other
woman with the oxygen tank. We looked up at the same time. The Angel of
Death looked at me with eye contact then looked directly at her. He stared
for about 3 seconds at both of us, me first, and then her. When he looked at
her, she wheezed a big ughhhhh... then she fell on the ground in front of
her chair.
People (adults) started running to her and they said, "Get those kids out of
here." I kept saying, "You did not see that man scare her?" Then I looked
down the long hallway he walked down and only saw his long black cloak that
looks like what judges wear. A black hat, black cape or cloak, and black
shoes from the back. He did not look back and his arms were swinging. When I
ran to catch up with him, he was gone. The security said no one came in with
all black on and they insisted I was crazy and to take me home. I still
remember how he looks. He was a medium complexion black guy that was medium
build and was older looking. The woman was white. This is a true story.
