Parlato response to allegation: ‘You only speak out because you were charged by Bronfman-Raniere crime family’

By Frank Parlato

A guest view claimed about me: “You too were once fooled by the Vanguard, and only because you’ve had criminal charges filed against you where you could face considerable jail time, have you taken action against it, so I wouldn’t take your criticisms of others – especially those who aren’t worthy of it – so far that it steps into ‘sensationalization’ territory.

Frank Parlato response:

I started writing about Keith Raniere and his criminality before I had criminal charges placed against me. At least one lawyer said that my writing about him prompted the indictment against me. However, it was not until Clare Bronfman committed perjury in a criminal complaint against me, that I realized that Keith and Clare are serious criminals.

I then started investigating.

For the record: On the day I knew they were sinister and dark, I wrote my first article about them portraying them precisely as I saw them.

Of course, as a journalist, I am in the business of reporting on criminals and evil doers – some of them in elected office and well known businessmen.

I started writing about Keith Raniere before I learned about DOS. The blackmail and branding took it to a new level of crimes against humanity.

I was the first to write about DOS. I published in print in the Niagara Falls Reporter in print and online in June 2017 and on the Frank Report, ‘Branded Slaves and Master Raniere.’

My 14-part series on the Cult of Keith Raniere appeared in print in Artvoice, before I was indicted. It was published on Nov. 19, 2015.

  • “weaknesses that Mr. Raniere taught were common to women — an overemotional nature, a failure to keep promises and an embrace of the role of victim” – well that part’s certainly true. Now why am I ostracized by feminists for stating these truths while Keith gets laid by them?

  • still no proof that ALLISON MACK IS BRANDING WOMEN, AND IN THE CULT. SHOW US ALL PROOF. VIDEOS AND PPHOTOS! STOP WITH THE LIES. ITS ALL SPECULATION. I DONT CARE ABOUT REINERE. IT COULD BE TRUE, SOUNDS TRUE. I AGREE. BUT ALLISON ISNT INVOLVED. AGAIN: PROOF BUDDY.

  • Say what you want about this blog or Frank. Without it, the overall exposure of what is happening would be a quick blip on a radar screen. No NYT articles, no People magazine article, the Times Union had not written many stories in years. There would be no exposure in Mexico, Canada or other places in the world.
    If you don’t like what’s written here, go read the Knife, stop reading the Frank Report or start your own blog.
    Stop with all the winning, it’s his blog people

About the Author

Frank Parlato is an investigative journalist.

His work has been cited in hundreds of news outlets, like The New York Times, The Daily Mail, VICE News, CBS News, Fox News, New York Post, New York Daily News, Oxygen, Rolling Stone, People Magazine, The Sun, The Times of London, CBS Inside Edition, among many others in all five continents.

His work to expose and take down NXIVM is featured in books like “Captive” by Catherine Oxenberg, “Scarred” by Sarah Edmonson, “The Program” by Toni Natalie, and “NXIVM. La Secta Que Sedujo al Poder en México” by Juan Alberto Vasquez.

Parlato has been prominently featured on HBO’s docuseries “The Vow” and was the lead investigator and coordinating producer for Investigation Discovery’s “The Lost Women of NXIVM.” In addition, he was credited in the Starz docuseries 'Seduced' for saving 'slave' women from being branded and escaping the sex-slave cult known as DOS.

Parlato appeared on the Nancy Grace Show, Beyond the Headlines with Gretchen Carlson, Dr. Oz, American Greed, Dateline NBC, and NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt, where Parlato conducted the first-ever interview with Keith Raniere after his arrest. This was ironic, as many credit Parlato as one of the primary architects of his arrest and the cratering of the cult he founded.
