Angel's Heaven Relaxation Spa in Arizona is a "massage" business owned by Pastor John LaVoie. LaVoie claims that the women at the spa offer "laying of hands," a religious act, but state prosecutors allege that the spa is a prostitution house disguised as a "spiritual" massage parlor. The "Heaven Spa" website features "angels" (and their descriptions) available to choose from. Arizona's assistant attorney general says the "angels" were committing acts of prostitution.Azstar.net.com: Massage Firm Steps Up Faith - Based Defense (September 28, 2008)
LaVaoie has not been criminally charged yet because a detective fouled the investigation by having sex with one of the "angels."
