Authorities are now treating as homicide the two deaths during a sweat-lodge ritual in Arizona last week, with the self-help guru who was in charge of the proceedings being called a “person of interest.” Investigators have found “indications” the deaths weren’t accidental, but wouldn’t explain. They searched the California offices of Oprah Winfrey-endorsed James Arthur Ray yesterday; Ray remains in California, the Republic reports.
