(Editor’s Note)
Not everyone who reads this blog had an opportunity to read many of the posts that appeared on John Tighe’s blog, “Saratoga In Decline”, back in the day. But now,as the life of Keith Raniere’s criminal enterprise (hopefully) draws to a close, I thought it would be interesting to take a look at just how much John exposed – and to let everyone ponder how much pain and anguish could have been avoided if any of our esteemed law enforcement authorities had done something way back then. How much money could have been put to good use, how many brandings could have been avoided, and how many lives could have been saved…Let’s hope history doesn’t repeat itself this time!
To get warmed up, here are a few postings from Wikipedia about Raniere and his band of evildoers…
Well first to the ethical humanitarian who put the roofing nails behind my car tire in my home parking lot. Nice try you missed. Trained from my days in Northern Ireland to sweep for car bombs, a few carefully placed nails are easy to spot. I guess you’ll have to try something else. Can’t you be a little creative? Fucking Philistines
ense. Then someone calling themselves Keyser Sözetigho got into the fray them

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clare_Bronfman
Well the Canadian newspaper The National Post [the Bronfman’s are Canadian white trash} made light of the divorce of Charles and Bonniepresence is requested as we celebrate our divorce
But the Brats made honorable mention next to their convicted French felon brother[what a fucked up family}
“Mr. Bronfman’s son Edgar Bronfman Jr. was convicted of insider trading this year and has had other business problems in the past. His nieces Sara and Clare have been involved with controversial self-help hypnosis group NXIVM (pronounced Nex-ee-um), which has a decidedly cultish appeal.”
Frank – Nice of you to honor John Tighe and all the work that he did to bring these assholes down. Hope that every law enforcement official who got bought off or scared off by Raniere and the Bronfmans has trouble sleeping at night because of what their failure-to-act caused. They’re a lot like that Deputy Sheriff in Parkland, FL who hid outside Building #12 while 17 people got butchered. Nice job, Albany County DA David Soares, Saratoga County DA Karen Heggen, NYS Police Investigator Rodger Kirsopp, and the rest of you lame-ass do-nothings. Pathetic!
I couldn’t find the link to the old National post article that JT linked up. but here is a similar article – https://www.theglobeandmail.com/life/the-hot-button/divorcing-bronfmans-celebrate-their-split-at-joint-divorce-party/article614393/ – This article I have linked up even mentions Clare and Sara being involved in NXIVM. clicking on the link brings you to the NY OBSERVER but not the actual link which is here: http://observer.com/2010/08/poor-little-rich-girls-the-ballad-of-sara-and-clare-bronfman/
