Re: Smallville's Allison Mack has been identified as a high-ranking member of a sex cult
I know in terms of prison sentences "three years seems like nothing," but consider this...we just went through a pandemic where most things were shut down for a little over a year. Now imagine if that had gone on for three years. Three years is a long time to be in prison if you're actually doing the time.

The prosecutors were always gunning for Keith Raniere, the cult's mastermind. I wonder if Mack would have even been prosecuted if she wasn't a high-profile female celebrity. Her crimes clearly could have generated a far longer sentence if the circumstances were different.

Another slap on the wrist sentencing. I just don’t get it. I’m sure they helped take down the main guy, but how does it help those affected if he’s in prison for life, and all the accomplished go on their way after a short while. It’s not like the physical branding or emotional scars are going to go away in 3-5.

The rich and powerful play by different rules than the rest of us. This cult had connections to powerful and wealthy families in not one but three different countries: Mexico, Canada and New York.

I either forgot or never knew Mack was married to one of the BSG actresses. I think she played a ship tech?
Anyway, looks like she has an “exclusive” interview with UK Page 6. She feels her side of the story isn’t being told, there’s a conspiracy from the FBI, and she’s not allowed to talk to Mack or Raniere. Comes across as level headed, but still toeing the line. Very odd.

I thought her marriage to Mack was because Clyne was going to be deported back to Canada. I think it was orchestrated by Raniere.

I think it's time for her to repent, find Jesus, start a social media ministry, and sell those $100 bottles of aromatherapy.
We know that she can convince women to do just about anything, so getting housewives to send her money should be very easy.

I'm fairly sure she would have gotten a sentence almost as long as the ringleader if Allison was a man. If you watch the documentaries available about this case, she was basically Keith's number two and played a key role managing the other women.
