Cleaner Recorded Versions of Raniere Lying to Girlfriend – With Observations on His Repugnant Sex-Life

In a previous post, Rare Voice Recordings of Keith Raniere Lying to a Girlfriend When He Was in His Late 20s, Frank Report made recordings available of Raniere, when he was in his late 20s, leaving voice messages on his girlfriend’s landline message machine.

The tape was largely inaudible, but now we have a cleaner version [the background noise was eliminated] and readers can hear the Vanguard, before he was Vanguard, in all his lying glory.

The back story is that Raniere had been living with Kathy for several years, in the 1980s, telling her they were in a monogamous relationship and that they would be married.

They were living in the Albany area.

As the relationship continued, Raniere had to make more and more extended absences. His reason: He said he had cancer and had to go to NYC for treatment at Sloan Kettering Hospital.

It was touch and go, Raniere said. He did not know if he would survive, but he put on a brave face and often called Kathy from the hospital.

When he returned to see Kathy, he tried not to cry, though Kathy, who loved him, could not restrain the tears.

This poor beautiful and brilliant man, so young, so vibrant, was battling for his very life.

Things were very, very difficult for Keith, he said, but he showed such courage and a resolve to battle the cancer that was ravaging his bowels, and bringing him to the brink of death.

Yet, such was the iron resolve of the man that he looked as if he had no cancer at all.

That is because in reality he had no cancer. He was fit as a fiddle. The true reason for his absences from their apartment was that he was living in Clifton Park, in a townhouse in Knox Woods at 3 Flintlock Lane, that he had purchased with one of his girlfriends Karen U.

And by day, while Karen was working, Keith would often have young Gina Hutchinson and other young girls over to the townhouse.

Having cancer and getting treatment in NYC was in effect his euphemism for having sex with teenagers and other women in Knox Woods.

In time, Kathy found out about his cheating and that he did not have cancer.

One day, shortly after he called “from the hospital,” her teenage daughter happened to run into Raniere with a couple of women at a Clifton Park mall.

She went up to Keith and tried to get his attention, but Keith pretended he was someone else, actually making it out that he did not know the daughter who he had spent years living with.

The young girl, who was then a teenager, knew it was the rascal and told her mom.

Imagine the chagrin when Keith called shortly after “from the hospital” to tell Kathy that he would be away a few more days getting the treatment that would determine if he would live or die.

Kathy had enough and she decided to rid herself of him and all his possessions in her house, so she could move on with her life.

At about the same time Keith had started a MLM business called Consumers’ Buyline and the members held weekly meetings on Wednesday nights at rented offices in Clifton Park.

Kathy knew about this but had never been invited to attend a meeting.

In typical Keith fashion, he had not told the women who worked for him at Consumer’s Buyline that he had a girlfriend and had been living with for years.

At Consumer’s Buyline, Karen became the public girlfriend.

One day, Kathy called Keith and left some rather blunt messages that she was fed up with his lies, she wanted to move on, and if they did not meet soon, she wanted all of his possessions out of her apartment.

He made no effort to pick them up. He was busy with cancer treatment.

Finally she left him a message that scared the shit out of him.

She was going to gather up all his possessions and drop them off at the only place and time she knew of where he would get them – the offices of Consumers’ Buyline at the weekly Wednesday night meeting.

This clearly scared Keith and if you listen carefully to the recordings you will hear the fear, disguised as concern for Kathy.

He is deeply concerned because he did not want her dropping off his possession when all the [mainly female] members would be there – and Karen too.

So Raniere started making calls and leaving messages. Now it was his turn to be in suspense since Kathy did not take his calls.

Here are some cleaned up versions of the recordings and our transcriptions of it [thanks to Marie White].

I didn’t realize it wasn’t an infinite message. As I’m saying um you know after you decide, just let me know what it is so we can talk about it afterwards so at least you’re not held up anymore, you feel you can live your life.

It just seems like circumstances aren’t allowing us to get together, so maybe this is what needs to be. I would just ask that look into your heart right now. You know at least in your past you used to talk about being in Schenectady and whenever you would put in a row of flowers…
