I was watching American Greed last night and an episode came on about a cult located near Albany. The cult was called NXIVM.
It got me wondering about other cults that operated across the state. These four suspected cults have been active in New York.
NXIVM
NXIVM was started by Keith Allen Raniere. It was a sex cult and a multi-level marketing scheme. This guy was a piece of work. He founded it in 1998. According to Wiki,
The group claimed to offer personal and professional development seminars through its Executive Success Programs of large-group awareness training.
NXIVM eventually led to the creation of DOS, a sorority that was really a secret society, where women were branded and forced to do sexual things for Raniere and others. In 2018, he was arrested in Mexico, where he had been hiding from the police. Raniere was charged with sex trafficking, sex trafficking conspiracy, and conspiracy to commit forced labor. He was sentenced to 120 years in prison.
