Jesus was never involved with voodoo. Voodoo is a combination of occult practices that originated in parts of Africa mixed with Roman Catholicism brought to the United States from islands in the Caribbean such as Haiti. It is prevalent in the southern states including Louisiana and New Orleans in particular.
If you read The Bible you will see how Jesus warned about occult practices and also about the Roman Catholic Church, both equally as evil in their perversion of the word of God (the bible) and His true church.
I have no doubt there is a statue of Jesus on a Voodoo alter, but this is a result of humans, not God. It seems there is no limit to the perversions of mankind under the guise of freedom of worship.
