Sweat Lodge Deaths
J.R. Packhorse, who practices in tribal courts in Arizona, speaks to reporters Thursday, Feb. 4, 2010 outside a Camp Verde courthouse after the first court appearance for motivational speaker James Arthur Ray since being charged with causing three deaths at an Arizona sweat lodge ceremony he led. About a half dozen American Indians attended the hearing and told reporters that Ray's ceremonies and others like them violate their way of life. "It'd be like for me to put on a costume and say I'm the Pope," he said. (AP Photo/Amanda Lee Myers)
