SUV parked on the side of Lauren Salzman's garage a few minutes ago.

Probably removing any evidence of her own culpability or feeding the cat

Is her pussy branded too?
Lana Darby - the not so nice and potty mouthed twin.April 20, 2018
I assume you are talking about Lauren's hairless cat or cats (at one point she had two) and not the area above her own VaJAYJAY. If the bitch branded her cats, I will make sure she is jailed for animal abuse.

Oooh f*ck ! Now it’s real… :_(
Until here there were just “stories” but now it’s real…
I don’t rejoice, I feel relieved… But it feels bad, because all of this seems so concrete yet !..

You're next, India.
You think getting lots of sleep, eating food with lots of calories and protein, and cutting the slaves off from the cult, could jump start their brains? We need roughly 50 grams of protein a day and a good portion of that is for brain health. The slaves got so few calories and so little protein, that damage to their brains certainly happened. I wonder if there's any hope for any of the slaves to wake up as they get physically stronger in prison.

That would help them, but who knows.

Ooh la la…let the chips continue to fall and the culprits be rounded up! Waiting with bated breath !!

Hearing must be soon, nearly end of day?

It was expected, but as long as it didn't happen, there was a doubt. Now it's real.
Very, very stupid Allison.

Uh, Nancy – Don't you think it's about time for you to cut a deal that will allow your daughters to get reduced jail time or just probation? Having given them away as toys for Raniere to play with, you now have a chance to do something a real parent would do. And don't forget, Mother's Day is coming soon…
Clare and Lauren in CuffsApril 20, 2018
Yes, we all have been waiting for this. Still need Lauren Salzman to be in cuffs along with about 10 – 30 more. The bus to make a deal is getting smaller and smaller.

Thank. Goodness. I don’t know why this took so long, but let’s hope she goes away and stays away for a long time.

Well, her involvement with “The Source” helped her get a lead role in a compelling drama.

Starring role in a major legal drama! And an entry on the Wall of Weird…

Keith set this up to test the loyalty of his followers. Keep believing NXSCUMERS

Any word on when and where the arrest took place, and where she is being held? Hopefully, the slaves all start to reclaim their lives starting tonight.

Times Union states Mack arrested this morning in NYC. Who is in control of the upstate slaves now?

$150,000 will not cover defense costs. No way in hell. More like $1.5 Million, unless Allison pleads early.
Even then, the US Attorney's Office may not offer a plea deal. And even if they do, in Federal Courts, the Federal Judge does not have to accept a plea deal. A Federal Judge can impose whatever sentence they want, as long as it's within the guideline range (presumption of fair sentence, Gall v. USA).
Mandatory minimum of 15 years. MINIMUM. The US Attorney's Office would have to allow her to plea to a lesser offense. They might not. And there is no early release or parole in the Federal system. So, Allie would be looking at a sentence of 13.5-14 years. And it's not going to be at a camp.
It still is mind boggling. How do you go from a hit TV show to be looking at 20 years in Federal prison (don't forget the immigration fraud)?
Exactly my thoughtApril 20, 2018
“$150,000 will not cover defense costs. No way in hell. More like $1.5 Million”
It's easily $600-$1,000 per attorney hour, and attorneys are rabid about their billables, down to the minute. $150k could get chewed up in a week.

Flood gates open! This news is on every major website. Kudos to everyone on this site. Even between the arguments, there are real quality human beings here. Congrats Frank. Hard work pays off. I hope Clare Bronfman is in real terror right now. Clock is ticking for her too.

Now, she has real celebrity status!
Reader1April 20, 2018
Amazing. When she eventually gets out of jail I wonder what she'll do?
some wise words of wisdom from that field beyond wrong doing and right doing 😉

“The carbon dioxide we exhale as a waste product becomes the life-giving force for a plant; in turn, the oxygen waste of a plant gives us life. This exchange of gas is what the word 'spirit' means. Spirituality is essentially the act of breathing.” Oof!
too bad keith is using all of her money to finance his own trial. Maybe the Bronfman's will also pick up alison's tab. Somehow I don't see that happening tho
Jerry Sandusky formally abandoned a state-court claim tied to an accuser’s recantation, clearing the way for a final order on his post-conviction petition. His lawyers say he aims to pursue federal review.
The article examines how years of media coverage labeling OneTaste an “orgasm cult” shaped the context around the forced labor conspiracy case against Nicole Daedone and Rachel Cherwitz.
Rev. J. Benjamin Hardwick and Curtis Somoza created a life insurance program for poor South Los Angeles congregants, funded by investors and insured by Transamerica. Early deaths, delayed payouts and federal intervention turned the plan into a fraud case.
