   Two people found dead in Marathon County, Wisconsin, earlier this month   
   were accidentally electrocuted, according to sheriff's officials.   
      
   Sheriff's Deputy Chad Billeb said 44-year-old Tanya Rodriguez and 52-year-   
   old James Carolfi were electrocuted while they were creating art using a   
   dangerous method called fractal wood burning. The process uses high-   
   voltage electricity to create designs in wood and has gained popularity on   
   social media sites like TikTok.   
      
   During a news conference Thursday, officials say the equipment used for   
   fractal burning caused the electrocutions and started a fire in the garage   
   where the two were found which spread to the rest of the house April 6.   
      
   An investigation found that Rodriguez and Carolfi had died prior to the   
   fire, WSAW-TV reported.   
      
   The sheriff's office received assistance from the Wisconsin Division of   
   Criminal Investigation, State Fire Marshal and the Marathon County   
   District Attorney's Office.   
      
   At least 33 people have died as a result of fractal burning, according to   
   the American Association of Woodturners.   
      
   In 2017 the AAW Safety Committee issued a ban against fractal burning   
   after a woodworker in Washington state was reportedly killed while   
   attempting to use the technique.
