Proving she hasn’t changed and still does whatever she is ordered to by the cult leader, this actress is leading the charge to have him released based on fake arguments that the FBI tampered with evidence and that is what led to him being found guilty.

Uh huh.

Leader: Keith Raniere

Lawyer for NXIVM victims calls demands by Raniere loyalists ‘extortionate’

New York — Loyalists of imprisoned cult leader Keith Raniere are threatening to publicly identify 12 NXIVM victims anonymously suing the convicted sex trafficker in federal court unless they identify themselves first — a move the plaintiffs’ attorney likened to extortion.

“For those of you who are Jane and John Does watching this, this is your last opportunity to come forward and put your name to your claims,” NXIVM loyalist Michele Hatchette said in a video posted on Instagram. “If you don’t, it is my moral obligation to name every single one of you. The clock starts now.”

The video was on the website for The Dossier Project, a group of eight women, including Hatchette, who admittedly belonged to Dominus Obsequious Sororium (DOS), the secret Raniere-controlled group also known as “The Vow” that was at the root of his sex trafficking charges.

Hatchette’s call to out the plaintiffs suing Raniere was backed by high-ranking DOS member Nicki Clyne and ex-doctor Danielle Roberts, another DOS member who branded women’s groins with a symbol later revealed to be Raniere’s initials.

“Women accusers who hide behind anonymity further the paternalistic idea that women need to be babied and are too weak to put their name to things,” stated Clyne, a Canadian-born actress formerly of Halfmoon, who once had a role on the updated adaptation of the show Battlestar Gallactica. “Women in the NXIVM case have hidden behind their anonymity long enough. With equal privilege comes
equal responsibility. Time’s up!”

More than 70 plaintiffs are suing Raniere and other top members of NXIVM, his former personal growth organization based on New Karner Road in Colonie, in U.S. District Court in Brooklyn. A dozen of the plaintiffs have asked to be identified anonymously as a “John Doe” or “Jane Doe,” a request that was granted at Raniere’s criminal trial in 2019.

Raniere, 61, formerly of Halfmoon, is serving 120 years in an Arizona federal prison on his convictions for sex trafficking, forced labor conspiracy and racketeering charges that included underlying acts of extortion, identity theft and possession of child pornography.

At his trial, Senior U.S. District Judge Nicholas Garaufis allowed victims of witnesses who testified about their victimization by Raniere to testify under pseudonyms and were referred to as “Jane Doe.”

Attorney Neil Glazer, who represents clients suing Raniere, Clyne and other top NXIVM members, is hoping that U.S. District Judge Eric Komitee allows the same anonymity to be permitted in the civil case if it reaches trial. He blasted the online efforts of the NXIVM loyalists.

“This extortionate demand is blatant retaliation, an attempt to harass, intimidate and further traumatize the plaintiffs seeking the protective order, as well as a brazen demonstration by a party to these proceedings of her utter contempt for the rule of law and the judicial process,” Glazer said a letter to Komitee on Friday. – Source
