Cults

Catherine Oxenberg, who led a crusade to save her daughter India Oxenberg, called Keith Raniere's 120-year sentence "a victory on so many levels."

One of the most disturbing revelations about NXIVM's inner sex cult was the ritual branding of female "slaves." Now that most of those women, like India Oxenberg, have reclaimed their lives, will they have to carry that mark with them for the rest of their lives?

“In every aspect of his conduct, Mr. Raniere has acted like the law does not apply to him,” the judge said before handing down Keith Raniere's prison sentence.

Keith Raniere, who faces life behind bars for his actions as head of NXIVM, claims that he is the victim of injustice. 

Police in Alaska believe Kristin Snyder intentionally capsized a kayak to end her life after becoming distraught while attending NXIVM classes. 

India Oxenberg said that she had been indoctrinated so thoroughly throughout her time in NXIVM that she couldn't recognize the red flags around being made to serve her DOS "masters."

Cult expert Rick Ross said at some points, NXIVM had him fearing for his life.

India Oxenberg tells Oxygen.com that she believes Allison Mack is a "broken person that will have to confront the things that she did."

Toni Zarattini joined NXIVM to overcome the residual pain he was dealing with over being kidnapped and brutalized, but he became outraged when he learned about the group's inner sex ring, DOS.

India Oxenberg described being held down by other women as she was branded with the initials of NXIVM leader Keith Raniere.
