MIAMI -- Devotees of a man who claims to practice a traditional African religion say they were sickened when they drank the mucus of a giant African snail.
Federal authorities in January raided Charles L. Stewart's home after receiving complaints. Stewart has not been criminally charged, but is under investigation. The giant African snail is prohibited in the U.S. without special approval.
Stewart tells The Miami Herald he means no harm, and his religion uses the snails in healing ceremonies.
