Allison Mack is sentenced to just three years in prison for recruiting sex slaves
2021-07-01
  • [Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] Allison Mack was sentenced on Wednesday to three years in prison for her role as a NXIVM slave master for Keith Raniere

  • She was also ordered to pay a $20,000 fine

  • Mack had pleaded guilty in 2019 to charges she blackmailed at least two women into becoming sex slaves for Raniere

  • She renounced Raniere during her sentencing, saying she was filled with 'remorse and guilt

  • She had been facing up to 17 years in prison and had urged the judge to sentence her only to home confinement

  • Mack, who was once part of Raniere's inner circle, had given prosecutors information that helped bolster their case against him

  • She joined NXIVM back in 2006 before becoming a 'slave master' around 2016

#6  I have a hard time with somebody being charged for consenting adults, well, consenting. This smells more of regret than Svengali. After all the same people telling you 'these poor women were brainwashed', would have you believe that 6 year olds have enough agency for sex changes.

#4  Ghislaine Maxwell's lawyer says she should be freed from jail now too after Bill Cosby's release because a prosecutor 'promised Jeffrey Epstein she wouldn't be charged'

#3  Why is she in jail at all? Our government is transporting children to the tune of thousands per month from the border of Mexico to undisclosed locations in the US, then handing them over to NGOs. And who, exactly who are these NGO that we are giving these kids to and who is tracking their final end state?
