Five years ago today, Keith Alan Raniere lost his physical freedom. March 25, 2018. He never had it again.
Down Mexico way in 2018, Raniere enjoyed his seaside villa in Chacala, a small fishing village about an hour and a half outside of Puerto Vallarta.
He had been staying in a gated community. Keith invited different NXIVM members to come during the weeks before March 25.
It was a work vacation focusing on marketing and enrollment strategies for NXIVM, a company virtually destroyed.
About a week before Easter, which was April 1, that year, everybody left except Lauren, Loreta, Daniella, Nicki, and Allison.
Keith and the women moved to another house.
On the morning of March 25, Keith wasn’t feeling well and napped with Lauren. He woke up not well. Lauren went to the kitchen and brought him food. She returned to the kitchen when Loreta came running and said the police were at the door for Keith.
Lauren ran to his room and tried to get him to leave through the window. Instead, he told her to call Jack.
Lauren didn’t have a phone and didn’t know how to work Keith’s phone. She locked the suite and closed the doors and the blinds.
Outside the house, federal police with machine guns and bulletproof vests, some wearing masks, were surrounding the property. Daniella, Allison, and Nicki were outside.
The police surrounded the property and searched it until they found that the only place they couldn’t search was the room that Keith and Lauren were in. They came to the door, and started banging.
Keith disappeared into the next room, into a walk-in closet. Lauren went to the door and asked the police if they had a warrant. They went back and forth.
The police said, “You open the door, and we’ll show it.”
Lauren said, “I’ll open the door, if you show the warrant to me.”
They asked Lauren if anyone had weapons. Then they kicked down the door, grabbed Lauren, held her on the floor with four machine guns pointed at her, and asked Lauren if there was anybody else in there with her.
Lauren did not answer.
Finally fearing they would shoot her, she called out Keith’s name.
At the same time, in the walk-in closet where Keith was hiding, the police kicked down the door. Keith came out of the room.
They held him on the floor, handcuffed him, then let him stand up and showed him a piece of paper. Raniere told Lauren the paper said the Eastern District of New York accused him of sex trafficking.
Then the police took him.
Within hours, the authorities deported him to Texas, where FBI agents were waiting. He was held in custody and arraigned but not granted bail.
The US Marshal’s service brought Raniere to Brooklyn within a few weeks, where he remained in custody at the Brooklyn MDC through his six-week trial, which ended on June 19, 2019.
Jury deliberations began at 10 AM, and around two [and this included lunch in between], they came into the courtroom.
Raniere was unshackled and brought in, exclaiming, “This is not justice.” Then the foreman read off guilty on all charges – every count and every predicate act.
Judge Nicholas G. Garaufis sentenced Raniere on October 27, 2020, to 120 years in prison.
Following sentencing, the BOP transferred him to USP Tuscon, where he currently lives in the SHU.
Half a decade came and went.
Raniere has another 97 years to go. Unless the Supreme Court hears his appeal or wins his Rule 33 motion or some other motion, Raniere’s release date is June 27, 2120.
Should he survive, he would be 160 years old.

[…] a street in Chacala, near Puerto Vallarta, in Mexico. Heavily armed Federales wearing balaclavas raided the house she was staying in, and arrested her mentor and guru Keith Raniere, the man she ‘perceived […]
What if one of the wayward whores who lived with you in your shithole was collecting information the whole time and made copies of your computer files
What if she’s more pissed off than you think and is after revenge but is smart enough not to tell you
What if she sent everything she has to people she knows are pissed at you and they sent it to state attorneys the feds the cops the I.R.S. and others
What if you are under new investigations right now
Nicki flipped on Keith, are you surprised ______ would flip on you
that’s how wayward whores are
If the “simpering miscreant” didn’t have illegal content on his computers etc, the “wayward whore” wouldn’t have accomplished anything against him. The simpering miscreant needs to take responsibility for his own actions.
Five years since arrest for Nicki Clyne to be “deprogrammed”. These psychopaths have so much control and power.
Thankful those most “loyal” have been given enough time to see the truth.
American Banks refused to given Congressional investigators records of Biden financial transactions with Communist China.
The American government strong arms American banks to cover up Biden financial crimes.
Chinese-American bank ‘willingly’ provided Biden family bank records
“American Banks refused to given Congressional investigators records of Biden financial transactions with Communist China”. LMAO!!
That’s cos there are no records!!! By ‘Congressional investigators” I assume you’re referring to that loony pack of misfits led by MTG??
More bad news for the Orange Ape I’m afraid…

The wheels of judgment grind exceedingly slow, but the grind exceedingly fine!
This is my first attempt at a NXIVM haiku:
Keith is an asshole
He liked to fuck younger girls
Now he may get raped
Thoughts?
I may come up with more based on the topic of new articles.
Keith is near insane
His girls are seeing the light
And it isn’t blue!
Not bad, Snorlax… Not bad at all.
And all of the hairy Santa’s reindeer fell ill to the truth. These poor monkey’s cannot put humpty dumpty together again. SHU fly don’t bother me. My sheeple are climbing the bean stalk from the seeds that I stole. He was a happy bird that flew to close to the sun. Now my scraps are left for fun.

I want to dance with Nicki in the rain
You should propose marriage to her. I think she needs a sponsor before she gets deported.

Yep and you are the dude from high school that can’t stop talking about the winning touch down at a foot ball game because I guess this is where you are stuck for the rest of your life. 5 years dude. Move on.
Don’t forget the probation Frank. 🤭
Right. In addition to the 97 years Raniere has yet to serve he has an additional five years probation commencing in 2120.
Why was Raniere not sentenced to community service after his release from prison? Did Judge Garaufis simply forget or did he know that this was not possible? But Garaufis believed that Raniere would still make it through the 5-year probation period after serving 120 years. How about 1000 hours of additional community service after that? Maybe Judge Garaufis just wanted to protect others from Raniere by not imposing this.
I suppose that pushing up daisies could be construed as a form of community service.
The probation will likely make an exception for Vanguard Week 2121.

It isn’t Vanguard. Try to keep a straight face when you see the Rep’s name…
Jeez what a name.
OMG. Is that the Korean Raniere?
What took the feds so long?
A few of those compromised, bought or sold New York feds probably had no idea that letting Mr. Vanguard run that huge pyramid scheme for so long would let Keith’s handlers in America and Jack Levy’s handlers in Mexico steal Mexico for the globalists.
History repeats itself with conquerors and the conquered. Now that America’s mostly gone, maybe some of those feds can see who did what where when why and how — and whistleblowers can still save the world.

I’m back. I was wondering about the people Keith supposedly had killed. After 5 years locked up, is the Frank Report any closer to the truth about the lost women of Nxivm?
Yes. We have some new information. It comes slow and may never be proven fully. But I am convinced more than ever that Keith lived for the pain he caused others. Killing would be something he would enjoy.
Poison – In old hair, cut long ago. Unexplained. Living with Raniere. Suddenly, you’re in your 50’s, and you know all the secrets. Meanwhile, he’s screwing every girl under 25.
Where does “97 years to go” come from? You mean 117?
Dani was there as well? How THE FUCK is she a victim!?!?? She seems to have been a willing participant in all things NXIVM.
Fed system you get time off [at least 15 percent] for presumed good behavior.
She escaped
Perhaps Frank means Daniella Padilla? Not the Daniela who was confined to a room.
Yes. Dani Padilla
Oh. I get confused on those two. Keith has quite the harum.
I believe it was Dani Padilla.
She escaped too
Go back and catch up on everything you have missed. We haven’t got time to explain it all.
Frank-
It’s been a wonderful 5+years reading the FrankReport. I’ve enjoyed reading the vast amount of journalistic pieces you personally wrote.
Thank you!
I sincerely think you missed your calling as writer, when you want to your writing is impeccable
Nice Guy, for all these years, I look forward to viewing the comments section and seeing your comments scattered across these pages – unlike a certain Amway defector who litters his comments like streaks on a SHU prison cell. But I have to tell you, I always felt it was wrong that you treated you know who like a French whore.
Does pilgrim have a garage full of Amway junk?
Frank-
I never treated Scott’s wife like a whore. She enjoyed wearing the French maid outfit. She said it was nicer than anything at the
Salvation Army….
….It turns out a wife can’t afford nice things when all her husband does is play video games and draw cartoons. So sad.
Keith said to call Jack…. Who is Jack?
Jack Meyoff that’s who!

“Jack Levy, married to Bibiana Huber, construction entrepreneur and owner of Grupo Veq in Guadalajara and developments throughout the Mexican Republic including the Aria Ocean development in Nuevo Vallarta where Keith Raniere filmed a porn movie with minors, was an unconditional of Raniere who managed the businesses and money laundering of NXIVM and its sect.
Bibiana is a designer and architect who helped design and decorate, among other places, Clare Bronfman’s Fiji Island Wakaya Resort, a former owner of the Seagram Group and a Keith Ramiere home.
Clearly Bibiana Huber [above] is too chubby for Keith who invites her to lose that «taco-eating fat» and drop another 15 pounds, she might be thin enough to interest Keith. Meanwhile, she’ll have to settle for her husband, Jack
Bibiana and her sister Vanessa Huber and Ludwika Pale with Emiliano Salinas’s wife sent approvals of new followers to the sect on their Instagram accounts.
Jack Levy’s wife, Bibiana Huber, was one of 66 people who sent Judge Garaufis letters of support to Clare Bronfman, Raniere’s spoiled, sentenced on September 30, to nearly 7 years in prison and three years of unconditional release.
When Keith Raniere was arrested and charged with sex trafficking after a confrontation with Mexican federal agents in Puerto Vallarta, Bibiana Huber and her husband Jack Levy were hiding him at their Ocean Pacific resort. In Nuevo Vallarta. In June 2019, he was convicted of federal charges of sex trafficking, racketeering, obstruction, and racketeering.“

I remember that day. I was with a good friend of mine who originally got me reading the Frank Report. I love all of the insight and artwork. Most of all the comments section.
Me too. I skim through the article then carefully peruse the comments section. I would love to attend a Frank Report convention. The biggest assholes on the planet would be in attendance.
So I suppose little ass-holes won’t be there, and since you would love to attend, then you hint at being one among the crowd!
This is a cause for celebration. Justice was served. The system worked.
For all the kvetching and cynicism, this all had a happy ending. This is why I regard it like a classic comic tale. The sonofabitch got his just desserts.
Raniere was a despicable man, make no mistake about that. Rotten to the core. A petty, vindictive bully who particularly targeted women. Selfish and sex obsessed. He cheated and lied his way through life and never did an honest day’s work. And make no mistake, he was a lifelong criminal. A con artist and a blackmailer, who eventually ventured into sex trafficking. That proved his undoing.
He went so far he had multiple women branded with his initials. That hit the front page of The New York Times and the Feds went after him.
The scumbag fled to Mexico to evade arrest but he was apprehended, put on trial, and convicted by a jury. Then the judge threw the book at him.
Good.
Some would like to make Raniere the poster boy of government repression or some such plaint. He seems a piss poor choice, spectacularly so.
Poor people get screwed by the system. Minorities. Raniere is a white boy with millions of dollars at his disposal. His trial lasted six weeks. He had a team of expert lawyers. He got publicity.
He got to appeal his case. The appeal failed of course, because there’s a mountain of evidence against him. Much of it he stored on his own phone, the dumbass.
He’s got three legal teams working for him, at my count. For the past five years I think he’s never had fewer than two legal firms working his case. Yet absurdly, he claims he’s being deprived of his constitutional right to representation. This is another reason why I regard this story as comedy; it’s hilarious!
And there are people who take his bullshit seriously! Still!
Raniere and two of his loyal lieutenants are now in prison. And he’s never getting out. Yippee! Light the fireworks and drink a toast to Justice!
To Moira Penza and Judge Garaufis, a big Thank You!
“And there are people who take his bullshit seriously! Still!”
And that’s the real tragedy, which is why although I’m with you on Raniere, his malevolence lives on in others. Can’t celebrate yet.
