The large crowd of people seeking to attend the trial caused a brief delay at the outset of this morning’s session.
Tomorrow, the curtain will rise on what is expected to be the 6-8 week trial of Keith Raniere, the man behind the curtain of the NXIVM criminal enterprise.
Clare Bronfman pleaded guilty to two felony charges on April 19, which was Good Friday. Some of her victims felt it was a bad Friday.
Today is when 12 jurors – and 6 alternates – will be selected to hear the case of the U.S. v. Raniere Et Al (Actually, since all five of Keith Raniere’s co-defendants have already pleaded guilty to various charges, I guess we can just drop the Et Al at this point).
By definition, a “Vanguard” is someone who is at the forefront of new developments – or who is leading a movement of new ideas.
One of the best and most comprehensive of many ‘curtain raisers’ on the upcoming Nxivm trial was published today in the Albany Times Union. Written by Brendan Lyons, the story is entitled “Raniere Stands Alone”.
Given that Clare Bronfman comes from a family of mobsters, it shouldn’t surprise anyone that she turned out to be one herself.
This might well be the final nail in Keith Raniere’s coffin.
In the case of USA v. Keith Alan Raniere, I see no reason not to identify John Doe 2. He is/was Edgar Miles Bronfman, father of Clare Bronfman, former president and CEO of his family’s distilled beverage firm, Seagram and former president of the World Jewish Congress. He died at age 84, on December
So, here we are…five days away from the start of Keith Raniere’s trial.
