Despite Natalie’s Claim, ‘Kim Snyder Is Not Mentally Retarded’, Declares Former Missouri DSS Commissioner Joseph O’Hara!

Kim Snyder has been helping in the investigation into the disappearance of her sister Kristin Snyder

Finally, because it was so hurtful

Toni Natalie wrote a book entitled, The Program: Inside the Mind of Keith Raniere and the Rise and Fall of Nxivm. In it, she claims she was “Patient Zero” for Keith Raniere and Nxivm.

That dubious claim aside, Toni’s book continues to free fall on the Amazon Best Sellers Rank, now ranking at a nearly irrelevant ranking of #303,299 in books, on the website of the world’s largest bookseller. That poor ranking means Toni’s book, which she co-wrote with Chet Hardin, might be selling about one book per week.

The Program, a book written by Toni Natalie and, in surprisingly small print, Chet Hardin.

At one time, at its pinnacle, Toni’s book hit #68,543 on Amazon – which meant it was still doing poorly – at about 5 sales per week. In short, the book failed to attract readers, despite its boastful title and fanciful stories.

What is interesting about the failure of her book is that it’s, in a sense, ‘cheater’s proof’. Toni did her best to prevent me from contacting a number of sources, so she could hog them for her book – and what she hoped would be a follow-up podcast show.  She went out of her way to prevent me from doing investigations into a number of matters – so she could get stories exclusively for her book and podcast show.

The irony is I wound up reaching all the sources she tried to block me from and Toni’s book – announced to great fanfare – fell flatter than an ugly, Botox enhanced pancake.

Toni Natalie, while pretending to be my friend and co fighter in the fight to bring justice to Keith Raniere, was secretly backbiting me at every turn. One of the most important sources Toni did her best to prevent me from speaking to was the family of Kristin Snyder.

My goal was not to write a book to profit off of them, but to sincerely try to find out what happened to Kristin. I even made a film with Discovery ID, which airs on Sunday, Dec. 8, at 9 PM ET – not for money – but to get their backing and imprimatur on the investigation.

The network worked with me as I traveled to Alaska, Washington, Texas, Albany, New York City, Sarasota, the Florida Keys and elsewhere to try to find out what happened.

Along the way, I made some startling discoveries, but the whole time I was filming, Toni did her best to block access to Kristin’s family who could have helped me much in the investigation. [She also tried to block access to Kristin’s spouse, Heidi Clifford.]

 

What happened to Kristin Snyder? She disappeared after leaving a Nxivm intensive on Feb. 6, 2003 in Anchorage Alaska and was never seen again.

Despite Toni’s best efforts at keeping the Snyder family and myself apart, I was able to make contact with them and it’s fair to say they no longer have anything to do with Toni Natalie [whose sister, Kim, refers to, as do others, as Toni Nata-LIE].

Toni’s strategy in keeping us apart was similar to her overall strategy: Keep people apart and make them go through her.

Toni often bragged – although at the time she said it to me I had no idea how invidious her agenda was – that, “While not everyone in Nxivm speaks to each other, everyone talks to Toni Natalie.”

[As an aside, I recall I once told Toni – because I trusted her at the time – that I was going to finally interview a certain gentleman for the first time on the record. She applauded, congratulated and encouraged me. Behind my back, which I only recently learned, she called the man’s wife, whom she knew, and advised her to tell her husband not to speak to me. It could be dangerous, she said.]

Toni kept the Snyder family from speaking to me by telling them I was a bad man, a dangerous man, not to be trusted. She told them they should put their trust in her. She would handle the media and get law enforcement interested in reopening the Kristin Snyder case.

“And, by all means,” she told them, “don’t ever talk to Frank Parlato.”

I would not have minded this so much if she was openly my enemy. But she pretended to be my friend, trying to work with me in helping solve the mysteries and crimes of Keith Raniere.

Meantime, as Toni pretended to be my friend, telling me she was trying to get me an interview with the Snyder family, she told me that Kristin’s mother was very old and nearly senile, just waiting to hop in the grave, a woman who wanted to hear no more about what happened to her daughter, but only to forget.

Toni also told me that Kim, Kristin’s sister, was, unfortunately, “mentally retarded” and incapable of helping me find anything out about Kristin, let alone being interviewed.

When I finally met Jonnie and Kim, I found Jonnie to be vibrant, healthy, attractive, a woman who very much wants to know what happened to her daughter. I found Kim to be bright and precocious, although she has had physical challenges in her life.

Unlike Toni, Kim never gave up her son and is raising him.

When Kim found out what Toni had been telling me and other people –  that she was retarded, Kim was hurt and angry.

She was hurt to learn Toni had also told these same disgusting lies to Joe O’Hara.

She was pleased when Joe, who was the former commissioner of Social Services for the State of Missouri, offered to interview her and pen a letter regarding his opinion of Toni’s claim that she is mentally retarded.

For the first time in print, below is Joe’s letter to Kim.

I am publishing this because Kim wanted this published, preferably before we continue to disclose more information about her missing sister, which Kim has worked with me to procure on a nearly daily basis.

Joe O’Hara

Kim,

I just wanted to confirm that my belief that Toni Natalie’s allegation that you are “retarded” is baseless, unwarranted and wrong. 

To begin with, I doubt very much that Toni even understands what the term means – and how it’s used from a scientific standpoint to identify a certain group of people. Instead, she probably uses the term to describe anyone who is simply different from her. 

In your case, the label is entirely inappropriate. As your work – and your parenting skills attest – you do not have a low IQ. Nor do you demonstrate any of the characteristics or traits of someone who is truly retarded.

Having worked for many years in the fields of child welfare and special education, I believe that I am much more qualified than the average person to understand what the term “retarded” means. In this regard, that is not a term that I would ever associate with someone who has your capacities and skills.

While Toni’s behavior in this instance is inexcusable, I think it best that you treat it in the same way you would treat the ramblings of any other uninformed and ill-intentioned person. In other words, just ignore it – and move on with your life.

 Stay strong!

 Joe O’Hara

***

Frank Report will be publishing a great deal of new information about Kristin Snyder.  Her sister, Kim, as well as Joe O’Hara and others, have been helping me accomplish this.

I think it is fair to record that not only I, but Joe O’Hara, who has had considerable experience in the field of human welfare, believe that Kim’s assistance is valuable, that she is far from the incompetent person Toni claimed she was, and that she is emphatically not mentally retarded.

Toni told Joe and me that she was only interested in protecting Kim from predatory media and other kinds of vultures. As I analyze it now, Kim has been much more helpful than Toni overall, and, as far as vultures are concerned, if the mug fits, one should wear it.

No matter what anyone says, lies like these about anyone’s mental capacity, about someone’s good character and even about their emotional “statures” HURT and can be very distressing. Block and tackle! What Toni has done and said has been shown now and certainly, she has been actively using the trust of others to do harm, and her dishonest tactics and antics have been demonstrated, over and over again, to be habitually and deliberately machiavellian.

If anything like this has been done to you, you don’t forget it. Yes, you can overcome, personally. But you also learn that really, nothing can be repaired, when anyone minus a healthy conscience has been the instigator of lies, of so much harmfulness. Trust is finished and for very good reasons. You make sure that you don’t go back for any more of the same. There is no pleasure in finding out that someone is a bewilderingly false friend and a liar, a cheat, a “lost cause.”

It is unconscionable behavior to anyone who wants to find out the truth and who works to come from a position of integrity. Unfortunately, most honest people do not expect people like Toni Natalie to come along and to dirty the waters. But one learns. It only makes you stronger, yet it’s inner growth that comes from some pain, not from joy.

Even if you have met a Toni before, there’s a tendency not to be suspicious of others who appear as friends or colleagues, as in Frank Parlato’s and Joe O’Hara’s experience with Toni. The list of people who have been deceived by Toni Natalie grows and grows, though. It doesn’t even seem to matter how personal or intimate or even familial the circumstances have been, beware of Toni Natalie, sugar on shit. Now it all comes back to haunt her, permanently.

She has made herself into a hopeless case, singlehandedly and has no credibility left, at all. This ends up being good but in an ironic way. Toni, however, won’t repair her damages, because it’d take a miracle, and Toni has run out of having good character or any reliability. Who can she screw with now? Only new naive people who haven’t heard about Toni Natalie, whom she can begin to target?

Every recounting from people who have been involved with her contains a substantial and often, a long story of being lied to and being used, all for Toni Natalies capricious advantage, despite what she was doing to anyone else. Damage someone’s reputation? Keep people from really helping one another? Present one lie after another, arrogantly and stupidly? Well, this looks like Toni’s major methodology.

So here is one long sideshow about a semi-functional personality disorder and about an individual who has been out to do harm. She cannot even help herself, it seems. Think it over, how come?

It’s doubtful that Toni Natalie will ever be capable of seeing these facts about herself. She has been an abuser, through and through. That’s how come her situation feels beyond any reparation. But at least Toni Natalie has been stopped in her tracks, for now.

Still, exposing her nasty, vicious game-playing does not sweep away the damages which she has left behind, in the wake of her manipulations. Some will have long memories about the troubled path of Toni.

What Toni Natalie has earned is the opposite of what she has wanted. She has been deviously looking for self-aggrandizement, but nature has not allowed her to create a vacuum, wherein Toni Natalie is its sole proprietess. Her whorehouse has lost its clientele. Her tea, coffee, cookies and whiskey are rancid. By negating the reliability and even the experience of others, existentially, she has negated herself. This is how justice has slapped her in the face, disfiguring her responsively and as the result of her own actions.

Her particular lying was done to block genuine communication and investigation but also has especially belittled two innocent peoples’ intelligence and coping abilities. Toni Natalie didn’t even know Kristin Snyder’s family, and look what she has done to them.

Kristin has had only one mother and one sister, and both were falsely described, with calculated cruelty, indifference. Why? For the benefit of only one hanger-on, a person who stuck her untrue words and her Pinocchio nose between so many others’ business and who just kept lying and lying to everyone and anyone who was perceived by Natalie as being in her way.

Then there is that double-edged sword, used by Toni Natalie upon (quite apparently) many different people individually, and the technique employed is especially insidious. Pretending to someone’s face to be a friend, an ally and supporter of finding the truth, and then Natalie went behind the backs of “her friends” and acquaintances to disparage them to one another.

Those who are “over” hearing about Toni Natalie, fine and oh-so- Tom Terrific. Move the hell on and forget it. Nobody has any gun to your heads, to either keep reading or to offer ineffectual, griping commentary.

But Toni isn’t dead yet. The recounting of who Toni really has been and is has not only exposed her. This is a genuine warning label, to protect anyone who doesn’t already have firsthand experience about Toni Natalie’s decisive state of toxicity.

One of my own brothers was born with such severe handicaps as to have never reached beyond the capacities of a one year old. That’s right. He cannot even feed himself or communicate much at all. Even his ability to walk at all can be credited to one grandma’s dedication, determination, constancy everyday when he was little with getting him walking. She spent hours each day helping him to walk.

I cannot begin to express how deeply painful and outrageous it has been to hear of what Toni has said and done. I will always love my little brother. There are no words. Our brother! No one could be more innocent. For the love of God, where is even the least scrap of respect? How our family dreamed and dreamed that maybe he could improve. And we have needed and wanted him to feel loved, to be safe, to grow, to be nourished. It has been tough and nobody was a hero. Acceptance is everything, deep in the heart. There isn’t a way to describe what our innocent brother has GIVEN to those of us who have known him. Each life is unique, that’s all.

Yet Toni Natalie has smugly lied and even about the death of her brother. She has treated her brother, her son and people who weren’t even in her acquaintanceship like the ogress that she has proven herself to be.

Perhaps the only thing golden to come out of Toni Natalie would be silence.

Shadow we will serve you with legal papers even if we have to serve everyone in Chicago to find you. Never doubt it.

Since Ms. Clyne was part of a sex slave ring that branded, blackmailed and enslaved young women under false pretenses, I doubt that she has much of a reputation to destroy.
In Sarah Edmondson’s book “Scared” she said that she was so angry at being deceived about her branding and sexual enslavement that the first thing she did was to erase her contact information for:

1.) Lauren Salzman

2.) Allison Mack

and

3.) Nicki Clyne.

However, if Ms. Clyne wants to find me to serve me there are approximately 11 (eleven) million people in the Chicago Metro area.
Here is the map of that area:

It covers 16 counties in three separate states.

I suggest that you start your search in the heart of Chicagoland, Chicago’s very colorful Englewood neighborhood.
It’s where the serial killer HH Holmes lived back in 1893.

I think far too much is being made of the “retarded” story. It was simply name-calling in an attempt for Natalie to maintain control over the narrative. She failed miserably, as she has done with her entire life. It’s way past time to move on from this topic before I start to rethink my position regarding Kim’s mental capacity. I invite her on my radio show to help people decide once and for all. I’m certainly not going to take the word of a convicted felon lawyer (who has also refused to come on my radio show) who is not qualified to make such a diagnosis. I’m not into Shakespeare, but “The lady doth protest too much, methinks.” I’ve been called all kinds of names since speaking up about Amway’s tool scam and illegal pyramid, as well as other MLM scams since 2005 and it doesn’t even phase me, because i consider the source and I know the facts.

No one care about you opinion Scotter Johnson, have you not figured that out yet.

Unlike you who seem to just be a disgruntled ex-soap salesman who has a local college radio show that anyone could get a slot after a short training.

Have you not learned we don’t give a shit about being on.

Some of us did something with our lives.

People have achieved things way beyond your wildest imagination. Like becoming a lawyer and becoming qualified to test someone to find out if they are mentally retarded.

It hard to understand from your garage with all those leftovers of LOC and from that small college radio booth and your wife supporting you but Scotty boy,

While you joined Amway, others went to this thing called COLLEGE and archive degrees to earn a real income. Not that walk away residual income you were seeking in Amway and the income you now seek chasing the windmill you do.

You seem an angry man Scott and when someone does something good and nice for someone like Kim Snyder, you can stand it.

You have to put it down. You have to be the blog bully and try discredit. You have to be a TONI.

You say I will believe it when I interview her as if selling soap makes you some kind of expert. Just like being a high school dropout and Keith Raniere ex-lover made Toni Natalie an expert to say the same thing in her book. Welcome to the same level as Toni NatalLIE Scooter.

Shame on you Scooter (Toni) Johnson. Did your balls never drop, have you been smoking too much medical marijuana, are your man boobs just too big, WTF is wrong with you? Get a brain and a heart dude and thing about what your saying before posting or next time this poster will give you another great big TONI award.

No one care about you opinion Scotter Johnson, have you not figured that out yet. — That was a long comment about why you, let alone “no one” doesn’t care about my opinion. Plus, I probably get more responses to my comments than anyone else posting comments on this website. LOL Plus, you made two errors in your first sentence (“Scotter” should be “Scooter” and and “care” should be “cares”), with the remainder of your screed dedicated telling me how stupid I am! LOL

Unlike you who seem to just be a disgruntled ex-soap salesman who has a local college radio show that anyone could get a slot after a short training. — Actually, the only “training” it takes to be on my radio show is how to make a phone call. Why don’t you come on my radio show and we’ll debate Amway and other MLM scams in detail? You probably won’t, because you know you would be exposed as the idiot you are! LOL

Have you not learned we don’t give a shit about being on. — I’ve had several guests on my radio show, including two people who studied MLMs for their doctorate degrees, as well as Frank himself and someone that Raniere physically f*cked years ago, and she described the encounter. LOL

Some of us did something with our lives. — So did I, including educating others about Amway and other MLM scams.

People have achieved things way beyond your wildest imagination. — I have a pretty vivid imagination and I’m not easily impressed, but go for it.

Like becoming a lawyer and becoming qualified to test someone to find out if they are mentally retarded. — I’m not impressed by someone being a disbarred lawyer. What are O’Hara’s credentials for being qualified to test whether someone is retarded? Is that part of a lawyer’s training or a requirement for holding a political office in Missouri?

It hard to understand from your garage with all those leftovers of LOC and from that small college radio booth and your wife supporting you but Scotty boy, — I may have a little leftover LOC sitting around somewhere, but only a single container, hardly a “garage” full. LOL As I said above, there is no “college radio booth,” the show consists of a phone call, welcome to 21st century technology. LOL

While you joined Amway, others went to this thing called COLLEGE and archive degrees to earn a real income. Not that walk away residual income you were seeking in Amway and the income you now seek chasing the windmill you do.

Previous comment inadvertently posted, here’s the remainder of my response:

and your wife supporting you but Scotty boy, — I support my wife more than she supports me. I make a six figure income. I would be happy to confirm that by sending my pay stub to Frank for confirmation that I’m not lying like you are. LOL

While you joined Amway, others went to this thing called COLLEGE and archive degrees to earn a real income. — I went to college before joining Amway, and the word is “achieve,”, not “archive,” which shows you either didn’t go to college or you went to a mail-in variety. Even a high school dropout like Natalie probably knows the right word to use. LOL

Not that walk away residual income you were seeking in Amway and the income you now seek chasing the windmill you do. — I’ve never claimed to be seeking a walk away income by educating others about Amway and other MLM scams.

You seem an angry man Scott and when someone does something good and nice for someone like Kim Snyder, you can stand it. — Should I not be angry about Amway and other MLM scams ripping off millions of new people every year? What make YOU angry? Who did something “good and nice” for Snyder, and what did they do?

You have to put it down. — What did I put down?

You have to be the blog bully and try discredit. — How does one discredit someone who is not qualified in the first place?

You have to be a TONI. — Natalie is a liar, I’m not. Do you see the difference? Bueller? Bueller? https://www.yourdictionary.com/bueller LOL

You say I will believe it when I interview her as if selling soap makes you some kind of expert. — I never claimed to be an expert, and never sold any soap, that is a misnomer about Amway. Do you think talking to someone is useless in helping to determine whether the person is retarded?

Just like being a high school dropout and Keith Raniere ex-lover made Toni Natalie an expert to say the same thing in her book. — I didn’t realize part of Natalie’s book included a live interview with Snyder. If true, perhaps I should get a copy of the book to listen to. LOL

Welcome to the same level as Toni NatalLIE Scooter. — See above. LOL

Shame on you Scooter (Toni) Johnson. — Shame for WHAT? All of your lies? LOL

Did your balls never drop, — Yes, they did. Any other stupid questions?

have you been smoking too much medical marijuana, — I’ve never put a tobacco cigarette in my mouth, let alone pot.

are your man boobs just too big, WTF is wrong with you? — My “man boobs” are made of muscle, sounds like you’re projecting.

Get a brain and a heart dude and thing about what your saying before posting or next time this poster will give you another great big TONI award. — I have both a brain and a heart, you just don’t like that I use both of them. I’m looking forward to your next stupid comment! LOL

Re The Snyder family and Frank’s investigation:

On nearly every Kristin Snyder article comment thread, one if not multiple readers have commented along the lines of “Writing articles and posting comments regarding Kristin is unfair and cruel to the Snyder family”.

Clearly, the Snyder family is onboard with Frank’s investigation. The Snyder family appreciates Frank’s efforts.

The Snyder family has the right to know if their daughter was murdered or driven to suicide.
Law enforcement stopped investigating and did not follow all the leads. More information has come out!

If it were my sister who died, I would not mind if an outsider was willing to take the time to thoroughly comb threw the facts regarding my sister’s death.

NiceGuy, sorry to be slow in adding my two cents’ worth – I hope you catch this.

I’m not so certain that the Snyder family necessarily appreciates the sensational speculation, or is “onboard” with anything more than exposing NXIVM’s likely – and Raniere’s possibly – negligent role in Snyder’ deteriorating mental condition that lead up to her disappearance. They may not appreciate speculation beyond that, any more than NXIVM’s conspiracy theory that Snyder just faked her death to escape from drug dealers (a theory about as worthy of consideration, and “investigation,” as any other).

And then there is also the person who is, effectively, Kristen Snyder’s widow, the person most directly affected and the one who would be in the best position to answer some of the critical questions, who for some reason gets treated as someone hardly worth taking into account.

Part of what bothers me is that I don’t think a thorough combing through of the facts – including consideration of all the various possibilities in Snyder’s case, if the official findings are to be questioned – is quite what is going on.

Toni lost the battle when she started calling Kim retarded. She could have been on the winning team but, instead, chose to be nasty and backbite Frank. Teamwork is what it took to get Raniere. Any one person thinking they are doing this for glory and fame is foolish. I’ve noticed that Frank gives credit when and where it’s due.

So Toni NataLIE, the High School dropout, is now taken up diagnosing people she has talked to over the phone.

She must of learned these skills from the Lucy School of Psycho-therapy from the Peanuts cartoon. Toni is such a humanitarian she doesn’t even charge Lucy’s 5 cent rate. She gives her skills away for free, knowing she will get her money in the end when her book sells a copy. CHA-CHING

Do you think Toni NataLIE has a certificate somewhere hidden away in her basement to show she is qualified in her name-calling, opps diagnosing skills, of others she showed her published that makes it OK in her and her publisher’s mind to not pull her book of lies of the shelves?

I’m still not back yet. Just wanted to stop by for a one time post before the New Year. Will not be replying to anybody.

Frank,

I’m glad to see that you’ve totally discredited Ms. Nata-LIE and her pathetically-selling book. Glad to see that you’re not decreasing your awesome coverage of that lying, wrinkly-faced and delusional woman.

Just wanted to say KEEP IT UP into the New Year and beyond. 🙂

Please don’t let anybody convince you to stop your coverage of that lying bitch.

If you stop now then you’d be letting Toni off the hook for her many misdeeds.

You need to keep whipping this LIVE horse until she’s been ‘brought to heel’. As long as this horse has breath in her lungs, she needs to be (figuratively) whipped. 🙂

She attempted to monopolize the NXIVM storyline for PROFIT while betraying, ridiculing and/or hurting many people in the process. She’s a disgusting human being. She’s nearly as disgusting as Keith IMO, since at least Keith was up front about people he didn’t like.

This two-faced bitch could probably teach a new ‘module’ on how to stab people in the back while secretly pretending to be their friends. LOL.

I’m BEYOND shocked that she took away her son’s inheritance — according to Frank — while not helping him to pay for his college tuition.

As a result, her son was forced to work many years just to pay for his own college —– while she’s sitting around and allegedly collecting disability.

What kind of loving mom would do that?

**I’m even more shocked that after her book deal, she’s apparently still not paying for her son’s college education.

There’s a special place in hell for mothers that cold and uncaring.

Comment to Heidi…

La Dama (Milady) Heidi Hutchinson-Manzana,

Don’t you DARE go back to kissing Toni’s ass and apologizing to her like you did a few months ago when that spineless wimp — Neil Glazer — came here.

However, I’m glad that you’ve finally lost your fear of your old pal “Tones”. I’m glad that you’re finally working in harmony with Team Frank now. 🙂

Toni has disrespected your family in an unforgivable manner. Any nuggets you know about her business past, you should be spilling the beans.

====================================

Comment to Neil Glazer…

Neil,

Frank has PROVEN that your client, Toni Nata-LIE, has repeatedly LIED about various things in her book.

In fact, based on Frank’s reporting, it would seem to me that your client’s credibility is less than Pinocchio.

I’d even guess that Toni’s credibility is less than that of Keith Raniere.

How can you represent a woman who provably lied, over and over again, in a book that was published for public consumption?

…and what about her disgusting lies told about the Snyder family, behind their back?

Neil, how can you represent a woman who said that Kim Snyder was retarded and that her mother was senile, when IN FACT both of those things are LIES and NOT TRUE?

Doesn’t that destroy your client’s credibility, sir?

I thought you were on the side of the ‘good guys’ in this fight against NXIVM?

Guess what, Neil?

Many things written in Toni’s book are so questionable that it would take a fool to believe them.

Which begs the question… Are you a FOOL, Neil?

To add insult to injury, Toni’s book sales have apparently been in the toilet from day #1.

Ha ha ha. 🙂

Your silence on this site is deafening, sir.

Based on your silence here, it would seem that you’ve run away with your tail tucked between your legs, akin to a puppy who got frightened by a grizzly bear journalist named Frank Parlato. 🙂

I hope you learned a lesson, Neil.

What lesson is that?

The same lesson Keith never learned…

Don’t make an enemy of Frank Parlato.

I bid you a nice day. 🙂

You vicious rotten interloper. I will sue you. Comparing Toni to a vulture. Eat shit and die. Go to hades and rot there forever. I hate you you pig. May wild boars attack you and eat out your innards. Damn you. Now you will be sued. My law firm is drawing up the papers. A process server will be engaged to serve you and you will be arrested within 5 business days UNLESS you immediately take down this post and agree to never mention Toni Natalie again.

I’m taking Perlato to court. We will teach him about his rights and what free speech is. The judge will put a gag order on you just like Roger Stone.

No kidding?
So now you’re from Cincinnati, Ohio!
Since you’re from Cincinnati, Ohio tell me which President came from Cincinnati.
Tell me the name of the major Dow Jones Industrial company headquartered in Cincinnati.
Tell me the famous person who became an Engineering Professor at the University of Cincinnati.
Tell me what special unique topping Cincinnati restaurants place on their spaghetti dishes.
Tell me which famous brothers grew up in Dayton, Ohio, which is 50 miles North of Cincinnati.
It just so happens that my father’s family were among the first settlers in southern Ohio near Cincinnati.

Keep misfiring. Toni Natalie is the interloper, feasting on the living, cannibalizing even the spirit of those who are no more here, like her own brother and like Kristin Snyder. It doesn’t even take much effort or intelligence to see how true this is. When you watch the nature of the beast, you can see “witches and sons of bithces melt.”

Its much like putting out a dense and stinking grease fire. The work isn’t such a pleasure as it is a necessity, for any relief to be found, to arise from the ashes. Live and learn. Where there is garbage, always there will “garbagemen” who will strive to clean up the damages. Some of us are ready to handle the filth left behind. Some won’t bother.

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.” Parlato was also credited in the Starz docuseries "Seduced" for saving 'slave' women from being branded and escaping the sex-slave cult known as DOS.

Additionally, Parlato’s coverage of the group OneTaste, starting in 2018, helped spark an FBI investigation, which led to indictments of two of its leaders in 2023.

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.

Parlato is a consulting producer and appears in TNT's The Heiress and the Sex Cult, which premiered on May 22, 2022. Most recently, he consulted and appeared on Tubi's "Branded and Brainwashed: Inside NXIVM," which aired January, 2023.
