Mesmerizing story indeed ! But what was the outcome of the trial ? Was the devil condemned ? To what sentence ?

Conjured by the priest of Madridejos, the Devil and the other 600+ demons by which Catalina Diaz was possessed agreed to leave her body and stop tormenting her...which they did ! Law and order prevailed ! A fair trial with a happy ending !
