49. Here's the CSM bit:
Their research into the community revealed that a woman called "Mama Jane" ran a "divination clinic" frequented by the town's most powerful people.

After months of prayer, Muthee held a crusade that "brought about 200 people to Christ." Their church in the basement of a grocery store was dubbed "The Prayer Cave," as members set up round-the-clock intercession. Mama Jane counterattacked, he says, but eventually "the demonic influence - the 'principality' over Kiambu - was broken," and she left town.

The bit about shooting the snake comes from those claiming the woman was a witch:

The addition of armor bearers to the strategy of intercession brought about the liberation of Kiambu. Muthee issued the challenge: "Mama Jane either gets saved and serves the Lord or she leaves town!" Many of Mama Jane's clients began to become Christians and burned their charms and fetishes in public. The public was suddenly enlightened to what was happening and began to suspect it was more than coincidence that Mama Jane's Emmanuel Clinic was near the site of the mysterious auto accidents. When a subsequent accident claimed the lives of three children, public outrage led to police involvement. They visited Mama Jane, saw that she had a huge python in one of her rooms, and shot the snake. They took Mama Jane in for questioning and then released her. She decided to pack up and leave town.

Or World Net Daily (I'm sorry I'm linking to such crappy websites, but these are the claims these nutters make themselves):

Their first priority was to figure out what on earth was the source of the trouble. After six months of research and prayer, it became obvious that it wasn't economics or politics, but a person – one oversized, 40-something woman named Mama Jane.

She was a witch. Forget pointy hats and broomsticks, she was the real thing. I'll concede that the majority of "witches" are cranks and dabblers who possess no special powers at all. But in dark places worldwide, there are millions of exceptions, and she was one. Typically, witchcraft is evidence of evil, but there it was the source of evil.
...
A few days later, it happened. After yet another "accident" at the clinic (three teenagers killed), the townsfolk rioted. "Stone her!" they cried. The police were called and barged into the clinic. Just past the reception room, they were startled to find themselves face to fang with a huge python. They pulled their revolvers and blew it to smithereens.

Mama Jane's powers evaporated along with that snake. A few days later, she left town, and everything changed. In the next four years, there was not a single accident. (See the "Transformations I" video.)
