MASSEUSE FACING A LEGAL KNOT- The masseuse who discovered actor Heath Ledger's body does not hold a state license to do massage therapy, officials said yesterday.
As a result, Diane Lee Wolozin , 45, may face charges that could put her behind bars for four years. The state Education Department, which licenses massage therapists, found that Wolozin was not licensed, a spokesman said.
Practicing massage therapy without a license is a felony, punishable by up to four years in prison.
Wolozin found Ledger unconscious in his bedroom at his SoHo apartment Tuesday.
She called his latest squeeze, Mary-Kate Olsen, four times before calling 911 for help. The operator gave her instructions in performing CPR, but it didn't help.
Licensed massage therapists are supposed to be certified in CPR, the Education Department spokesman said.
Seems like bullshit to me. Four years in prison for not having a license to give backrubs?
Sure, you argue if she'd had a license she might have given him CPR but who knows if that would have saved him?
