Charged guru says he's broke

FLAGSTAFF (Arizona) – A MAN who built a multimillion-dollar empire with a motivational mantra that teaches people to create wealth contends he’s broke and cannot post bond in a criminal case that threatens the survival of his self-help business.

James Arthur Ray was charged earlier this month with three counts of manslaughter stemming from the deaths of three people following a sweat lodge ceremony he led last year in the southwestern state of Arizona.
