A woman who was in a coma after attending a spiritual retreat that went horribly wrong has died. Lizabeth Neumann is the third person to die after attending an Arizona sweat lodge ceremony led by self-help guru James Arthur Ray. Two men died this past weekend, and several others were treated at local hospitals, after 64 people were crammed into a makeshift sweatlodge.
Authorities with the Yavapai County Sheriff's Office say they are investigating the deaths as homicides.

Thanks for ongoing pagan-Wicca information. Please correct facts on Sedona sweat lodge deaths: One of first victims a woman in her 30’s, artist, hiker, surfer. Horrible outcome of ignoring Native American wisdom, knowledge and intent out of arrogance, hubris, greed. Also very hard lessons from the ignored shadow side of Ray’s work and personality. Now out in the open. Hard lesson. Definitely criminal.
