Death casts doubt over faith healers in Southern California
Roberto Caceres, 54, sought help from a Salvadoran faith healer after doctors failed to cure a rash. On his second visit the healer’s assistant injected vitamins and steroids and Caceres died. The healer Reina Isabel Chavarria, 48, and assistant Margarita Montes, 28, were charged with involuntary manslaughter and practicing medicine without a license. Authorities say illegal clinics persist in immigrant communities even as a task force fights back.
