Frank Parlato Interviews the Kayak Owner in ‘The Lost Women of NXIVM’

The truth is always fair


Frank Report introduces a draft submission attributed to Sammy Duncan Jr. that defends Keith Raniere, describing how Executive Success courses reframed disruptive pranks and reactions to them.

The installment examines FBI computers seized from Curtis Somoza's home, his defense's request for mirror images, and prosecutors' move to release equipment tied to Convoii's bankruptcy. It says some originals were slated to leave without copies for Somoza.

After his arrest in a fraud case tied to church life insurance policies, Curt Somoza sought a $35 million sale to repay investors. Prosecutors moved to revoke his bond, the deal collapsed, and he says he spent 327 days in the SHU.

The OneTaste case centered on a forced-labor conspiracy charge, not a substantive forced-labor count. Prosecutors argued Nicole Daedone and Rachel Cherwitz could be convicted based on an alleged agreement, even without proving forced labor occurred.
