Jailed Aum Guru Tries Don's Trick Too

File under: Gurus Doin' Time

Subway-gassing Japanese über-guru Shoko Asahara has apparently taken a page from "The Chin's" playbook along with Liz Prophet. According to his daughters, Ashara has taken to "wearing diapers and mumbling incomprehensibly" during their visits with him in prison. "Father...was looking right, left, up and down, jiggling his legs or just mumbling," his daughter said.

We believe this is the start of a new trend in gurudom. Now there's an option for those caught molesting children, spending funds on lavish lifestyles, or just being plain old-fashioned mass-murderers. Too bad the Don is in prison as well. If he'd have pulled it off, he might have made a bundle as a consultant to disgraced gurus everywhere.
