Following the collapse of the Rajneeshpuram commune, Sheela served three years in prison for assault, attempted murder, arson, wiretapping and causing a food poisoning epidemic in The Dalles, Oregon that made 750 people sick. She was released from prison in 1988 and deported.
In Australia and New Zealand, she is remembered for popularising the phrase "Tough Titties", having used the term to great effect in a television interview.
