I bet they would get a life sentence. Depending on state - likely death penalty.
And their communities would be rousted and persecuted. Anyone who looked anything like them would be harassed. Possibly laws passed to take away religious freedoms.

HWG is stilling selling "healing" sessions through December of this year. Bizarre that they can claim that with a straight face from a man who killed and injured many with his reckless incompetence and ignorance. His partner is an Iraqi woman peddling tarot.
They seriously claim "Our mission is to cultivate a new generation of individuals who embody the values of:
Truth Morals Principles Virtues....
An unwavering stand against deception in all its forms....
Reduce human suffering...."
How does any of that align with Ray killing three people and injuring dozens more? Nowhere do they even admit to the deaths they caused, much less apologize. Greedy vultures.
Yes, there's a definite need for this warning to stay. His partner:

This website has been mentioned in this thread more than a dozen times. It was started by the family of Kirby Brown, who lost her life along with two others on October 8, 2009. Something I cannot find there is what her sister Jean Brown says here:
https://www.azfamily.com/2025/01/07/sister-sedona-sweat-lodge-victim-reacts-james-rays-sudden-death/
--- Quote ---Ray died on Friday.
“Right away I felt bad for his family. We do know what it feels like to lose somebody very unexpectedly,” said Jean Brown.
It’s a complicated place for Jean Brown to be in because Ray is responsible for the death of her sister, Kirby Brown.
“He would also make statements sometimes like the tragedy in Sedona had to happen in order for him to grow, so I’m glad I won’t have to hear things like that anymore,” Jean said.

If James Arthur Ray really said things like that it's absolutely horrendous, and I found confirmation here (my boldings in text):

--- Quote ---Ray: ‘It Had to Happen’
Carchman’s film contains a startling conclusion from Ray, who is asked by the filmmaker how the tragedy could have happened.
Although he is seen giving a teary apology in court, and emotionally referencing the event in small-scale seminars as he begins again to court clients, Ray answers: “It had to happen, because it was the only way I could experience and learn and grow through the things that I’ve done. … You come out of a situation like this and you’re either bitter and angry, or you’re more awake and grateful, and I choose awake and grateful, and I choose to see it as a test of character, and a test through fire, and I think I did OK.”
Asked by PEOPLE what he has done for the families of those who died, Ray says: “I’ve done everything that’s been asked of me. I’ve served my time, I paid restitution, I reached out to them, contrary to what was reported. I received mixed response from that reaching out.” He explains further: “I received an order, a legal document, when I was in custody stating that if I was to contact them in any way, there would be legal ramifications. I’ve respected that and honored that and I’ve abided by the law.”
“I’m not ignoring what happened,” he says. “Just the opposite. In fact, I’m using it to help make everyone I engage with the very best they can be. I can talk to a lot larger audience from a broader perspective of experience today than I ever could before.”
